The largest House GOP caucus has released a ‘national security strategy’ that envisions escalating sanctions against China and Russia, more war on terrorism in the Middle East, and a Cold War-type infowar, among other things.


The 120-page proposal unveiled by the Republican Study Committee on Wednesday is pitched as “a conservative, solutions-oriented plan for preserving American leadership around the globe.”


It offers a laundry list of possible actions against “America’s most aggressive global adversaries” such as China, Russia and Iran, including “toughest sanctions ever proposed.” The RSC also seeks to reform the State Department, USAID, and international propaganda efforts, while leaving “irreparable” international organizations in favor of new ones composed of “democratic countries.”
