Trump may strike Venezuela. His team makes that very risky.

Take a close look at who is advising the president on U.S. policy.

🧵A thread inspired by this new @goodauth.bsky.social piece from the Dean of Ceasefire Studies, @pagefortna.bsky.social. Also, I like to admit when I'm wrong. I was wrong to doubt there would be a ceasefire, and I have written that Trump destroyed US diplomacy. 1/ goodauthority.org/news/israel-...

The Israel-Hamas ceasefire leaves important questions unanswered

Many important details must still be worked out.
