The Cincinnati Enquirer: on Homeland Security
Dan Mongiardo:
Saddam is not my good friend
BUNNING: We have combined 22 different agencies of the federal government to make us more secure. Mongiardo doesn’t understand that there has not been an attack over the last three years in the US.
Do you think that’s by accident or do you think it’s by design? We have worked very, very hard.
By combining intelligence, by confronting our good friend Saddam, the ugliest dictator in history, on their turf rather than on our turf, we have prevented attacks.MONGIARDO: I’m concerned we are going to see another attack.
Bunning’s priorities are not to take care of the working class families of this state. Even though you think that I look like Saddam’s sons, he is not my good friend.

JD Vance:
Facilitate peace in Russia-Ukraine, instead of US support
Vance sees unsettling similarities between the run-up to the Iraq War and current calls for more U.S. support to Ukraine. He said some of the same people who are most hawkish on Ukraine were the most hawkish on Iraq, showing lack of humility
about their previous misjudgment. Vance had previously been making the Iraq comparison in private with his Washington colleagues, he said, and thinks there is growing skepticism about U.S. Ukraine involvement and more belief that our
European allies should do more."I've been trying to make sure we don't take an escalatory posture," Vance said. The best role for the United States, he said, is to help facilitate a peaceful resolution to the
Russian-Ukraine conflict--which Trump claims he could do as president--and "prevent this thing from escalating into World War III."
