I’m pleased to announce that my appearance on “The Big Picture with Thom Hartmann,” which was cancelled earlier this week due to the flood of political news, has been rescheduled.  And it’s tonight – at 7:15 PM EST.

It’s the same subject – the opening round of talks to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) – with maybe a little Steve Bannon analysis thrown in!

I’m pleased to report the publication of two new op-ed pieces over the last week.

Today, Marketwatch.com published my column explaining why President Trump should portray any new hard line trade moves as doses of tough love needed to ensure sustainable worldwide growth, rather than narrow-minded America First-type measures.  Here’s the link.

And last Thursday, Lifezette.com ran my call for a thoroughgoing overhaul of the U.S. security alliance with South Korea – before North Korea becomes unmistakably able to strike the American homeland with nuclear weapons.  Read the piece at this link.
