By Ken Cuccinelli – see Wikipedia bio below
Coast Guard protects US interests – plus American Samoa - from Chinese fishing fleet.

CHAPTER 6 – DEPARTMENT OF STATE
By Kiron K. Skinner – see bio below
By Kiron K. Skinner – see bio below
Large swaths of State are left-wing and predisposed to disagree with conservative President’s vision. Therefore, State requires President’s handpicked political leadership.
No one in State Department leadership should hold that job end day January 20, 2025.
Accept resignations of all political ambassadors and reassess career ambassadors.
African nations are particularly (and reasonably) non-receptive to the U.S. social policies such as abortion and pro-LGBT initiatives being imposed on them. We should focus on core security, economic, and human rights engagement and reject the promotion of divisive policies that hurt the deepening of shared goals between the U.S. and its African partners.
Work with Congress on certain issues but remain “radio silent” on those White House wants to be primary on.
Visas to foreign nationals based on reciprocity.
Make significant foreign policy shift based on who friends are.
Focus attention on China, Iran, Venezuela, North Korea, Russia.
With respect to Ukraine, continued U.S. involvement must be fully paid for; limited to military aid (while European allies address Ukraine’s economic needs); and have a
clearly defined national security strategy that does not risk American lives.
Mexico no longer functions as first-world nation, but a cartel country and is national security disaster.
US should work with Western Hemisphere nations to move back global manufacturing and industry from around the world, this includes energy development.
Prevent Iran from gaining nuclear weapons.
Encourage Arab states to join Abraham Accord and de-fund Palestinian Authority.
Pay special attention to religious freedom issues of Middle Eastern Christians and other minorities, plus human trafficking.
In Africa, move from only humanitarian aid to fostering free market and incentivize US private sector there.
Designate focus countries with mutually beneficial relationships for full service response from US rather than all Africa.
