Paul and Olivia anticipate some of the most important dates to look forward to heading into the 2020s, including the 250th anniversary of America’s independence. We also talk about two major stories affecting the Washington war lobby. First, we describe reports of President Trump speaking directly to troops over the generals and what that says about America’s strategy in the Middle East over the past 20 years. We also analyze a major story reported by the Washington Post just before the Christmas season about our scandalous, aimless policy in Afghanistan under Bush and Obama.
