What We Know and Don’t About Hunter Biden and a Laptop
President Trump’s allies have promoted claims of corruption aimed at the former vice president’s son in an effort to damage the Biden campaign.
https://archive.ph/wip/NsVQ9
What happened after the F.B.I. took the equipment?
Mr. Isaac said he did not hear back from investigators. He said that he wondered why the laptop’s existence had not been disclosed during the impeachment proceedings against Mr. Trump, and that he began to fear that agents might be trying to bury the information he found on the laptop.
Mr. Trump’s impeachment focused on his dealings with Ukraine, and in particular his attempts to press the president of Ukraine to announce investigations that could benefit Mr. Trump politically, including one into Burisma and the Bidens. In an effort to counter the accusations that Mr. Trump abused his power, some of his supporters, including Mr. Giuliani, also promoted allegations of corruption about Hunter Biden’s work in the country while his father was vice president.
Both are a distraction from Biden admitting extortion in public office
“return to normality” it means a return of the US Council on Foreign Relations (CFR).

In 2008, Barack Obama received the names of his entire future cabinet already one month prior to his election by CFR Senior Fellow (and Citigroup banker) Michael Froman, as a Wikileaks email later revealed. Consequently, the key posts in Obama’s cabinet were filled almost exclusively by CFR members, as was the case in most cabinets since World War II. To be sure, Obama’s 2008 Republican opponent, the late John McCain, was a CFR member, too. Michael Froman later negotiated the TPP and TTIP international trade agreements, before returning to the CFR as a Distinguished Fellow.
In 2017, CFR nightmare President Donald Trump immediately canceled these trade agreements – because he viewed them as detrimental to US domestic industry which allowed China to conclude its own, recently announced RCEP free-trade area, encompassing 14 countries and a third of global trade. Trump also canceled other CFR achievements, like the multinational Iran nuclear deal and the UN climate and migration agreements, and he tried, but largely failed, to withdraw US troops from East Asia, Central Asia, the Middle East, Europe and Africa, thus seriously endangering the global US empire built over decades by the CFR and its 5000 elite members.
Unsurprisingly, most of the US media, whose owners and editors are themselves members of the CFR, didn’t like President Trump. This was also true for most of the European media, whose owners and editors are members of international CFR affiliates like the Bilderberg Group and the Trilateral Commission, founded by CFR directors after the conquest of Europe during World War II. Moreover, it was none other than the CFR which in 1996 recommended a closer cooperation between the CIA and the media, i.e. a restart of the famous CIA Operation Mockingbird. Historically, OSS and CIA directors since William Donovan and Allen Dulles have always been CFR members.
Joe Biden promised that he would form “the most diverse cabinet” in US history. This may be true in terms of skin color and gender, but almost all of his key future cabinet members have one thing in common: they are, indeed, members of the US Council on Foreign Relations.
This is the case for Anthony Blinken (State), Lloyd Austin (Defense), Alejandro Mayorkas (Homeland Security), William J. Burns (CIA Director), Janet Yellen (Treasury), Linda Thomas-Greenfield (Ambassador to the UN), Gina Raimondo (Commerce), Cecilia Rouse (Chair of the Council of Economic Advisors), John Kerry (Special Envoy for Climate), and even Tom Vilsack (Agriculture).
Most of Biden’s CFR-vetted nominees supported recent US wars against Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria and Yemen as well as the 2014 regime change in Ukraine. Unsurprisingly, neoconservative Max Boot, the CFR Senior Fellow in National Security Studies and one of the most vocal opponents of the Trump administration, has called Biden’s future cabinet “America’s A-Team”.
Thus, after four years of “populism” and “isolationism”, a Biden presidency will mean the return of the Council on Foreign Relations and the continuation of a tradition of more than 70 years. Indeed, the CFR was founded in 1921 in response to the “trauma of 1920”, when US President Warren Harding and the US Senate turned isolationist and renounced US global leadership after World War I. In 2016, Donald Trump’s “America First” campaign reactivated this 100 year old foreign policy trauma.
Why are most US and international media hardly interested in this? Well, why should they?

,1,China has long claimed Taiwan as its own, and U.S. policy toward the issue is strategically ambiguous. If an increasingly assertive China invades the island, where most Taiwanese people vehemently oppose unification, the United States and the world will suffer massive economic and geopolitical consequences. Global economic loss would likely reach trillions of dollars, and if the United States gets involved in the conflict, an invasion could also trigger the first great-power war in a century. But invasion is not a given, and U.S. officials can still adapt their policies to deter China from altering the status quo.

,1,Over the next couple of years, artificial intelligence (AI) could change the nature of work, with an increasing number of jobs at risk of automation. Over the next decade, it could transform international security as militaries incorporate AI-powered weapons. And over the next century, it could drastically alter the way societies operate, and the role of people within them.
These are just a few of the ways AI could change the world, and some reverberations from the AI boom are already being felt. Analysts see risks in both the present and the future, as well as the potential for global benefits. At stake is nothing less than the future of labor, national security, and people’s livelihoods across the globe.

,1,Prior to its invasion of Ukraine, Russia was the world’s largest producer of fertilizer. Amid a deluge of Western sanctions, affordable fertilizer has become another casualty of the war.
Fertilizer is like a vitamin for plants; it contains ingredients that help them grow. With less fertilizer, farmers cannot grow as many crops, reducing the global food supply. The price of fertilizer has more than tripled since the war began, worsening food shortages in low-income countries, many of which depend on agriculture for food security. Some fertilizer-producing countries, such as Canada, have stepped in to fill the gap left by Russia; others, such as China, have moved to restrict fertilizer exports. Meanwhile, U.S. officials have raised concerns about the environmental effects of energy-intensive fertilizer production. Will disruption to the fertilizer market exacerbate the growing global food crisis?

,1,Nuclear weapons never went away, but as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine extends into its second year, nuclear worries are making a comeback. Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly threatened to use nuclear weapons against Ukraine, reigniting concerns about nuclear weapons and proliferation. Elsewhere, China has built up its own nuclear arsenal while ratcheting up tensions with Taiwan, and North Korea and Iran have continued to develop their own nuclear programs. Meanwhile, U.S. allies and bad actors alike could be seeking nuclear weapons of their own, and long-standing nuclear arms control agreements remain suspended.
As U.S. officials confront these and other nuclear challenges, they will be tasked with preventing further proliferation that increases the likelihood of mutually assured destruction. How serious is today’s nuclear threat, and what are the prospects for global denuclearization?

,1,As tensions between great powers continue to escalate, the prospect of widespread conflict—and the subsequent impact on international security, the global economy, and climate change—looms over the year ahead. The Council on Foreign Relations’ annual Preventive Priorities Survey asks foreign policy experts to evaluate the U.S. ramifications of thirty global conflicts.
China’s desire to reclaim Taiwan and Russia’s ongoing war in Ukraine are chief among their concerns. Meanwhile, countries including Iran and North Korea continue to covet nuclear weapons, unrest churns in Latin America, and U.S. officials are scrambling to prepare a contingency plan for a coordinated cyberattack.
Whether or not these threats will be borne out in 2023 depends on how global leaders navigate this new era of great-power competition.

,council on foreign relations,cfr,foreign policy,think tank,international relations,cWEvwAqyRCI,, Society, channel_UCL_A4jkwvKuMyToAPy3FQKQ, video_cWEvwAqyRCI,Even though unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs) are often conflated with the search for extraterrestrial life, they often have more to do with national security than with scientific advancement. And while extraterrestrial life may indeed be real in the form of microbes on far-away planets, the shroud of secrecy surrounding UAPs—which exists for national security reasons—has fed decades of conspiracy theories and spurred hundreds of movies and television shows about little green men arriving on Earth. Recent Congressional hearings on UAP sightings, and the release of an unclassified NASA investigation into them, have once again brought UAPs back to the fore.
The truth about alien life is out there—is the United States’ defense-led focus on UAPs getting in the way of finding it?

,1,Governments seeking to regulate artificial intelligence (AI) face a classic trade-off between regulation and innovation. But in the case of this new, potentially world-changing technology, that trade-off has another dimension: geopolitical competition.
Governments aiming to regulate AI are also intent on developing a lead (or not getting left behind) in a technology that experts say has pivotal military applications. As a result, the world’s three largest economies are pursuing increasingly different regulatory regimes. The European Union has been the quickest to introduce regulations, while the United States has taken a wait-and-see approach. Meanwhile, China stipulates that its AI must “reflect the core values of socialism,” even as Beijing frames AI innovation as a national priority. As their paths diverge, the regulations chosen by these governments are likely to frame AI development—and with it geopolitics—in the decades to come.

,1,Last year was deadly for journalists around the world. Even as the Russian invasion of Ukraine sparked the largest land war in Europe since World War II, it was Latin America, where there are currently no wars, that was the deadliest region for journalists.
This violence against the world’s reporters comes amid growing anti-journalist sentiment and a consolidation of power by populist leaders. Killings of journalists increased 50 percent last year; more journalists’ deaths were recorded in 2022 than at any point in the past five years. About half of those killings took place in Latin America, where leaders such as Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador and Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele have cracked down on press freedom. Meanwhile, the rise of spyware has made it easier for governments to track journalists and their sources. In this episode, journalists in the region explain how their jobs have gotten harder—and why healthy democracies need press freedom.

,1,As global warming melts the Arctic ice, relationships between great powers are becoming icier than ever.
Commercial enterprises and great powers alike are staking their claims to the region, making it the newest frontier in the battle for control over Earth’s shared waters—and the precious natural resources that lie beneath the frozen sea. As the Arctic has warmed, these valuable commodities have become more extractable, providing a powerful financial incentive for those willing to brave newly navigable waters. For countries such as the United States and Russia, the Arctic Circle could become a tactical site to expand naval and nuclear operations. Meanwhile, countries including Russia and China are eager to slash costs by sailing through new Arctic sea routes. But while the warming temperatures generate compelling opportunities for sometimes-opposing foreign interests, climate change has imperiled the region’s ecosystems and the many Indigenous tribes who live in the frozen North. As tensions continue to rise, will the warming Arctic play host to a new Cold War?

,1,In its early years, proponents of the internet heralded its ability to transcend national borders, equalize access to information, and even promote democracy. Many predicted that any attempt to regulate freedom of speech on the internet would fail.
Now, governments the world over are pursuing vastly different regulatory frameworks, and the dream of a single, free internet is fading. In the United States, freedom of speech and a laissez-faire approach have led to enormous success for companies such as Apple, Google, and Amazon. At the same time, many analysts say, the U.S. internet is rife with misinformation, toxic content, and “surveillance capitalism.” In China, the Great Firewall and an army of content moderators have successfully brought the digital realm under control of the Chinese Communist Party. And in Europe, regulators have had surprising success implementing protections for data privacy and the “right to be forgotten.”
Will one model eventually win out? And if not, what will a balkanized digital world mean?

,1,As Qatar welcomes more than a million fans to its newly-constructed soccer stadia, billions more are watching avidly from every corner of the planet. Still, the 2022 Cup has long been overshadowed by accusations of corruption, exploited migrant labor, and the clash between Qatar’s domestic laws and Western democratic values. Qatar was willing to lay out more than $200 billion in order to burnish its image on the world stage, but it remains unclear whether they will get the desired return on their investment. In this episode, we ask what the World Cup’s soft power means when wielded by a tiny, authoritarian petrostate, and what lessons can be learned from the world’s irrepressible love of soccer.

,1,The United States is the world’s top arms exporter, with 2020 sales from leading U.S. producers reaching $285 billion. It’s a lucrative business, but arms trade is also part of Washington’s foreign policy: it’s used to support U.S. allies, as leverage in international agreements, and even to help one side over another during a conflict. In this episode, Why It Matters explores the global implications of arms trade, and the responsibilities and moral burdens that come with the United States’ outsize role.

,1,Saudi Arabia has the largest oil reserves in the world, giving it undoubted influence over what Americans pay at the gas pump. Middle East experts argue that the U.S. economy is inextricably linked to Saudi Arabia, at least until the United States transitions to cleaner energy sources. Meanwhile, human rights activists around the world have called on Washington to sever ties with Riyadh over its human rights violations. In this episode, Why It Matters examines the often disharmonious U.S.-Saudi relationship, and the compromises being made so the countries can work together.

,1,Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas are again at war. The most recent iteration of the conflict, which erupted after Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023, has stoked public debate throughout the world. In the United States, heated debates about the issue have played out at universities, in boardrooms, and on social media. Thus far, the U.S. government has strongly supported Israel’s right to defend itself, sending warships and high-ranking officials to the region, but concerns are mounting about the civilian death toll and humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip. U.S. support for Israel is not new, but it has grown increasingly controversial, particularly among young people. Still, experts are skeptical that shifting U.S. public opinion of Israel and the Palestinian territories will influence the war’s trajectory.

,1,As U.S.-Russian relations scrape the depths of Cold War antagonism, the promise of partnership that beguiled American administrations during the first post-Soviet decades increasingly appears to have been false from the start. Getting Russia Right identifies the blind spots that prevented Washington from seeing Russia as it really is and crafting a policy to advance American interests without provoking an aggressive Russian response.
In Getting Russia Right, Thomas Graham deftly traces the evolution of opposing ideas of national purpose that created an inherent tension in relations. Distilling the Putin factor to reveal the contours of the Russia challenge facing the United States whenever he departs the scene, Graham lays out a compelling way to deal with it so that the United States can continue to advance its interests in a rapidly changing world.

One of the keys to China’s global rise has been its strategy of deploying sovereign wealth on behalf of state power. Since President Xi Jinping took office in 2013, China has doubled down on financial statecraft, making shrewd investments with the sovereign funds it has built up by leveraging its foreign exchange reserves. Sovereign Funds tells the story of how the Communist Party of China became a global financier of surpassing ambition.
In Sovereign Funds, Zongyuan Zoe Liu offers the first in-depth account of the evolution of China’s sovereign funds, and shows how these institutions have become mechanisms not only for transforming low-reward foreign exchange reserves into investment capital but also for power projection.

,1,In this Emmy award–winning video essay, witness the tragic realities faced during Sudan’s Darfur genocide. Between 2003 and 2007, the Darfuri people experienced unspeakable violence. World leaders condemned the Sudanese government for their actions related to the crisis and called for international assistance for the Darfuri people. However, with the lack of cooperation from Sudanese officials, the conflict wreaked havoc in the region. Originally published in 2007, this compilation of footage and photographs depicts the humanitarian crisis.

The answer to the question, "Is Taiwan a part of China?" is complicated and intertwined in history, identity, and modern geopolitical dynamics. Yet, it's one that needs to be understood as tensions increase and the possibility of conflict looms. David Sacks, CFR's fellow for Asia Studies, answers this question and more.

,1,Antibiotics have saved untold millions of lives, but bacteria are learning to outsmart them at alarming rates. Projections show that by 2050, ten million people could die each year from antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Bacteria are becoming increasingly resistant to antibiotics. A major cause is its overuse in both humans and animals. At the same time, a lack of financial incentives is setting back efforts to discover new classes of antibiotics. The problem is both global and local, and without new initiatives, many common medical conditions could become deadly once again.
