Incredibly, China withdrew the giant pandas from the Ueno Zoo in Tokyo to bully Japanese PM Takaichi.
A small price to pay for Takaichi's extraordinary and decisive leadership to make Japan strong and promote stability in the Asia-Pacific. @A1Policy

Japan's establishment of a new National Intelligence Bureau is supposed to be the rough equivalent of Tokyo's CIA.

My new @theamgreatness article.
Tulsi Gabbard's success in cutting back the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI)
was only a start -- lasting reform requires abolishing it outright and restoring CIA leadership of U.S. intelligence.

Japan is undergoing its largest military expansion since World War II, and the Japanese Coast Guard is transforming from a patrol force into the first line of defense.
The Japanese Coast Guard is now actively deterring China's bids to destabilize the waters around Japan.

7/ President @realDonaldTrump should direct his next DNI to make American intelligence great again — lean, effective, and depoliticized.
My friend @FredFleitz would be an outstanding choice to succeed Tulsi and complete this mission.
Full analysis on my site. Link in bio.

Tulsi Gabbard made real progress downsizing and depoliticizing the ODNI.
But it’s not enough. The next Director of National Intelligence must finish the job: abolish the ODNI entirely and restore the CIA as the leader of U.S. intelligence.
Here's why.🧵

Japan is rightly shaking off the ghost of its horrible WWII intelligence record. We should be encouraging the development of a sophisticated Japanese collection and analysis capability with the goal of one day inviting the Japanese National Intelligence Bureau into the "five eyes" community.

Great analysis by @LydiaMoynihan . The DNI has to go. See my new @theamgreatness article on this. amgreatness.com/2026/05/29/t…

The DNI has become the Department of Redundancy Deportment.
The goal was for DNI to be lean and mean but it has become so bloated — as Tom Cotton says you have coordinators coordinating with coordinator — it’s not able to achieve its mission.

After an accomplishment filled week by President Trump, I have the pleasure of reading a piece of Friday fiction, courtesy of the Daily Mail.
To be crystal clear, I am not going anywhere. I am honored and proud to serve President Trump, proud of our team and remain fully committed to advancing his agenda on behalf of the American people.
Some in the media have spent a decade trying to manufacture drama around President Trump and people who work for him. They were wrong then, and they are wrong now.
See you Monday.

From my new @dailywire op-ed.
"By embracing U.S. companies like Coupang and Starbucks — just as the U.S. has embraced Korean companies — President Lee can remove a longstanding and growing irritant in the bilateral relationship and safeguard the alliance that benefits both nations... South Korea should embrace this opportunity and recalibrate its crusade against U.S. firms."
