Christmas in the Trenches 2022

As is my annual custom, I offer you this song. My thanks to all those who serve our country at home and abroad. It is a reminder of why they serve—to "secure the blessings of liberty." This year, with so much strife in the world, it seems worth remembering those who sacrifice for our nation.

My best wishes to all Lawfare readers for a warm and wonderful holiday season and a happy new year.

Is Benjamin Wittes Underestimating Vladimir Putin’s Martial Arts Skills?

What started as a very minor auto “incident” ended as a completely avoidable road rage fight with a big 40-year old farm-boy who outweighed me by 100 pounds. I know he outweighed me by 100 pounds because the very short fight ended with him lying on top of me in the middle of the street after pile-driving me straight into the pavement.
