Svalbard: The Other Arctic Island Flashpoint Authored by Paul Crespo via RealClearWire, As many focus on the world’s largest island, Greenland, and President Trump’s aggressive efforts to acquire it, another strategic Arctic island, nearby Svalbard, may be an even more likely future point of contention and conflict.

The Talented Mr. Newsom Authored by Alex Berenson, Gavin Newsom could be our next president. But does anyone – including him – know what he stands for?
