It’s a stark reminder of the potential consequences when leadership appears to be acting with impunity.
The potential invasion scenario is playing out against the backdrop of a deeply polarized nation. The political landscape is fractured, and the reactions to such a prospect seem to vary wildly, often along partisan lines.… Continue reading
