Posted: 02 Mar 2018 08:21 PM PST

Mike Huckabee Resigns From Country Music Board After Criticism Of His Anti-LGBTQ Views"If the industry doesn't want people of faith or who hold conservative and traditional political views to buy tickets and music, they should be forthcoming and say it," Huckabee wrote in his resignation letter, which came just one day after he was announced as the CMA Foundation's newest member. "Until recently, the arts was the one place America could set aside political, geographical, racial, religious, and economic barriers and come together ...  At the end of the day, I'm not worth the fight, but the kids are." The letter was published in Nashville's The Tennessean. Although CMA Foundation Chairman Joe Galante had touted Huckabee's "policy experience with education reform" when announcing the former Arkansas governor's appointment to the board Wednesday, the news immediately set off a firestorm of criticism.

A Climate Change Litmus Test For Democrats

Posted: 04 Mar 2018 05:00 AM PST

A Climate Change Litmus Test For DemocratsIn April 2016, at a campaign stop on the campus of SUNY Purchase, just north of New York City, I filmed a short video of Hillary Clinton. The video quickly went viral, partly because of the outsized response from a famously tight-lipped politician, partly because it played so well into the Democratic primary narrative that pitted Clinton, buddy-buddy with Wall Street, against the people-powered challenge of Sen. Bernie Sanders. The furor that the video generated sprang from fissures in the Democratic Party that perfunctory resistance to President Donald Trump has only papered over.

We Now Know Why Russia Wants a 100-Megaton Nuclear Torpedo

Posted: 02 Mar 2018 07:20 PM PST

We Now Know Why Russia Wants a 100-Megaton Nuclear TorpedoIn a speech on March 1, 2018, Russian president Vladimir Putin detailed a half-dozen "invincible" new Russian weapons under development, which he assured would give his nation the ability to launch "unstoppable" nuclear attacks on the United States. The speech, which was met with cheers by the audience, was accompanied by a video presentation that included an animation of a separating nuclear warheads raining down on Florida, apparently in the vicinity of President Trump's retreat in Mar-a-Lago. The bellicose rhetoric is surely intended to rally political support for Putin's reelection on March 18, as well a reflection of Moscow's own insecurity, stemming from fears that new U.S. ballistic-missile defenses may eventually render Russia's nuclear deterrence ineffective.

Russia's Navy Might Be Modernizing—But It's Overstretched

Posted: 03 Mar 2018 06:17 PM PST

Russia's Navy Might Be Modernizing—But It's OverstretchedPresident Vladimir Putin's speech on the first of March revealed a whole panoply of new nuclear capabilities, from cruise missiles with nearly unlimited range to unmanned undersea vehicles also operating with extraordinary range, together with unprecedented speed and depth capabilities. Along the maritime periphery of Russia, tensions continue to escalate. Russian warships sortied en masse into the Baltic Sea on 20 February as part of a readiness drill, and in January, Russian news reported that a U.S. drone made a long-range intelligence-gathering sortie along Russia's Black Sea border in the vicinity of Kerch, Sochi, and the Crimea.


Donald Trump praises Xi Jinping's powergrab: 'Maybe we'll give that a shot some day'

Posted: 03 Mar 2018 07:28 PM PST

Donald Trump praises Xi Jinping's powergrab: 'Maybe we'll give that a shot some day'Donald Trump praised Xi Jinping on Saturday after the ruling Communist party announced it was eliminating the two-term limit for the presidency, paving the way for the Chinese leader to serve indefinitely, according to audio aired by CNN. "He's now president for life, president for life. And he's great," Mr Trump said of the Chinese president, according to audio of excerpts of Mr Trump's remarks at a closed-door fundraiser in Florida aired by CNN. "And look, he was able to do that. I think it's great. Maybe we'll have to give that a shot someday," Mr Trump said to cheers and applause from supporters. US presidents by tradition served a maximum of two four-year terms until President Franklin Roosevelt was elected a record four times starting in 1932. An amendment to the US Constitution approved in 1951 limits presidents to two terms in office. China's annual parliament gathering kicks off on Monday as Mr Xi presses ahead with efforts to ward off financial risks without undermining the economy. Xi Jinping | The wisdom of Xi The Communist party announced on February 25 the end of the two-term limit for the president - and the parliament is expected to ratify the move. During the remarks, Mr Trump praised Mr Xi as "a great gentleman" and added: "He's the most powerful (Chinese) president in a hundred years." Mr Trump said Xi had treated him "tremendously well" during his visit in November. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment late on Saturday. Mr Trump has often praised the Chinese leader, but in January Mr Trump told Reuters the United States was considering a big "fine" as part of a probe into China's alleged theft of intellectual property. He has been critical of China's trade policies. Profile | Xi Jinping Mr Trump told The New York Times in December that because of North Korea he had "been soft on China because the only thing more important to me than trade is war." During the speech in Florida, Mr Trump also complained that his actions during the 2016 campaign remained under scrutiny while those of his former rival, Hillary Clinton, were not.  "I'm telling you, it's a rigged system folks," Mr Trump said. "I've been saying that for a long time. It's a rigged system. And we don't have the right people in there yet. We have a lot of great people, but certain things, we don't have the right people." The president has been critical of Attorney General Jeff Sessions recently.  Mr Trump attacked Mr Sessions for asking the inspector general to investigate potential surveillance abuses by the FBI in the early stages of the Russia investigation, saying that such a probe should be handled instead by "Justice Department lawyers." Mr Sessions later defended himself in an unusual statement. Donald Trump criticised George W Bush, saying the Iraq invasion "the single worst decision ever made" Credit: AP The president also took aim at former President George W Bush over his decision too invade Iraq. "Here we are, like the dummies of the world, because we had bad politicians running our country for a long time," he said, calling the Iraq invasion "the single worst decision ever made". "That was Bush. Another real genius. That was Bush," Mr Trump said sarcastically. "That turned out to be wonderful intelligence. Great intelligence agency there."
