Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

February Minipod: How Could President Trump Subvert the 2026 Elections?
Q: How could the president disrupt the midterm elections, and what is the likelihood of those attempts succeeding?
Eric Columbus explains that while many disruption strategies are legally constrained, possibilities include attempts to deploy troops or federal agents at polling sites or declare emergencies to alter voting procedures. He emphasizes that actual success would depend on legal challenges, institutional pushback, and the decentralized nature of U.S. elections, making broader disruption difficult but not impossible if authorities ignore legal norms, with potential significant political and legal fallout.
Lawfare Archive: The National Intelligence Strategy with Michael Collins of the National Intelligence Council
Q: What is the process for drafting the strategy—who writes it, and how is it debated?
It's a collaborative process that blends leadership direction with input from across IC member agencies, including budget considerations; the final product rests with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence but reflects a broad set of inputs to ensure coherence with the National Security Strategy and other key policy documents.
Lawfare Archive: The National Intelligence Strategy with Michael Collins of the National Intelligence Council
Q: How is intelligence defined in this new framework, and how does it differ from traditional, secrecy-driven notions?
Intelligence is defined more broadly as the combination of traditional, secret insights with open-source data, private-sector information, and expert external perspectives, to provide a fuller understanding of global forces and policy implications.
Lawfare Archive: The National Intelligence Strategy with Michael Collins of the National Intelligence Council
Q: What is the NIC's role in creating and thinking about the new National Intelligence Strategy?
The NIC helps produce the analysis framework that informs the strategy, supports the larger National Security Strategy, and coordinates input from across IC agencies to shape an integrated approach focusing on both immediate priorities and long-term issues, including talent, partnerships, and data capabilities.
Lawfare Daily: Military Education and American Manhood with Jasper Craven
Q: How did you approach researching and mapping the history in your book?
I started from a broad arc of US history, looked for through lines connecting early military education to modern structures, and used specific sites like Valley Forge to illustrate how training and institutions evolved, while balancing historical context with on-the-ground reporting.
