From January 1, 2022 post
My training and professional expertise are in international relations and national security, with significant experience working on security issues concerning China, Russia, North Korea, and US foreign policy in East Asia. I advocate a strong national defense and strong military policy along the lines of Ronald Reagan’s “peace through strength.” Weakness invites aggression, particularly in the case of the United States, which is the most powerful nation on earth and plays the role of global backstop as it regards stability, peace, prosperity and security. If the US is not there to stand up to tyranny and injustice, to uphold international order, the world is worse off. The US must stand up to the increasingly aggressive policies of China’s Communist Party and Russia’s Putin in particular, and we will need a strong military and strong foreign policy to do so.
Moreover, Colorado is home to much of the nation’s core defense establishment facilities and key parts of the military industrial complex. Colorado plays an outsize role in the nation’s defense and we need representatives who understand the issues, who will fight to protect Colorado’s assets, and will (as an important example) fight to keep Space Command in Colorado (not Alabama, where it is slated to be moved). We must also do what we can to better support our veterans, for this impacts many in Colorado who’ve faithfully served their country.
