The call between Gen. Charles Q. Brown and Gen. Liu Zhenli is a step in the right direction and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is working to set up further calls at various levels. The call is hoped to reduce tensions and prevent any potential conflict.

Senate Democrats have called out Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville of Alabama for defending white nationalism and claiming that militant white people are simply “Americans.” Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said this is “deadly serious stuff” and urged Tuberville to apologize, while Air Force Gen. Charles Q. Brown said his nomination to become the next Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff could be held up in the Senate due to the hold. Schumer said Tuberville’s comments are “deeply and terribly disturbing” and called on Republican colleagues to urge him to apologize.
