New from @ToddHarrisonDC and me in @DefenseOne: Johnson's proposed 6-month CR is a nightmare that threatens to tie defense spending to a toxic combo of fiscal issues that must be resolved in 2025 (debt ceiling, expiring tax cuts, sequestration threat)

Pleased to contribute to the Bad Ideas series again — this time alongside my colleague Hannah Price.
We break down the differences in deterrence dynamics between Taiwan and Ukraine and explain why Beijing is likelier to take dangerous steps below the threshold of an invasion.
In our next set of Bad Ideas, Hannah Price and @BrianTHart of @ChinaPowerCSIS argue why we shouldn't equate the threats facing Taiwan and Ukraine defense360.csis.org/bad-idea…

PPBE needs reform, but not the type that we might think. Some innovation will come from sudden commercial finds. Some may even be startups that need capital. But not everything will be that way
Honored to write for @CSISDefense360's Bad Ideas series! defense360.csis.org/bad-idea…

Can the President can submit a budget request for next year while the current year's budget has not yet been decided? The answer is yes, and this scenario happened with the FY19 and FY12 requests. (1/3)

For the @csis_isp/@CSISDefense360 "Bad Ideas in NatSec" series, I explain why it's a bad idea to conflate China's 2027 military modernization goal with a supposed Chinese timeline for compelling Taiwan militarily. TL;DR: capabilities ≠ intent. defense360.csis.org/bad-idea…
