Today we honor the lives lost and the courage of those who responded. We remember those who served, including many from the Truman community. Terrorism is just one of many complex threats—cybersecurity, disinformation, climate change, and geopolitical tensions are reshaping our understanding of national security. As these threats evolve, we must rethink our strategies and remain vigilant in safeguarding our freedom, security, and justice. Our path forward requires unity, resilience, and a commitment to the values that define us as a nation.

Jessica Sleight, our Janne E. Nolan Nuclear Security Fellow at the Truman Center for National Policy, emphasizes the urgent need for a rethinking of U.S. nuclear strategy. With a $1.7 trillion modernization program, the next U.S. president faces critical choices that will shape the future of nuclear security. Amid growing calls for an expanded nuclear force to counter China and Russia, there is a need to prioritize a holistic approach that avoids short-term fear-based thinking, and the military-industrial complex, and considers the impact on communities and the environment. The stakes are high, and a new arms race could be on the horizon if we aren't careful.

We are proud to announce Anthony “Tony” Johnson started today as our new President and CEO of the Truman Center and the Truman Project. A long-time Truman member, Tony brings a wealth of experience and a commitment to driving the organization forward into a new era of growth and inclusivity. “An incredible number of talented candidates were considered, but ultimately Tony's rich experience in national security, decades of experience as a leader of people and teams, and deep ties to the Truman community made him the standout choice to lead Truman,” said Chair of Truman Center’s Board of Directors Stephen Bailey, “Tony not only co-founded the TruDiversity Initiative, but he embodies Truman's values. We are excited to see him lead Trumans to a bold future." Tony’s extensive background in national security and public service, including his roles as Special Assistant and Intelligence Advisor to the Deputy Secretary of Defense, Senior Researcher at the Institute for Defense Analyses, and Advisor for Special Operations and Irregular Warfare at the U.S. Department of Defense, makes him the ideal person to lead Truman into the future. We are excited to see Tony continue his advocacy for greater representation in the U.S. foreign and national security policy communities through initiatives like TruDiversity, which he co-founded. His vision to grow Truman as an organization that promotes intelligent dialogue about our nation’s most urgent security challenges and nurtures a diverse cadre of national security leaders is inspiring. Join us in welcoming Tony Johnson as the new CEO of the Truman Center and Truman National Security Project! His leadership marks the beginning of a bold new chapter for our organization. #Leadership #NationalSecurity

Joint Statement from Truman National Security Project and Truman Center The Truman National Security Project and Truman Center for National Policy strongly condemn the attempted assassination of former President Trump and all political violence. We call for a transparent and speedy investigation. As the investigation proceeds, we urge restraint and renewed efforts to bridge ideological divides. We also advise caution in an environment of widespread misinformation and disinformation. Now is a time for healing, not further division or a rush to judgment. Rejecting polarization and violent rhetoric, and embracing unity, is vital to the health of our union and our national security. As Americans, we share a common belief that violence has no place in our electoral system or our democracy.

At #TruCon2024 we honored Tennessee State Representatives Justin Jones and Justin J. Pearson with the Award for Exceptional Moral Courage in Public Service. Last year’s recipient Congressman Jamie Raskin presented the award to Justin J. Pearson at the conference. The two shared the stage to share some inspiring and encouraging words about democracy today while remaining very realistic about the real work that still has to be done.

When “War Game” premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, the documentary immediately captivated audiences as it explored the very real threat of domestic extremism and hyper-polarization. We were so lucky to have War Game filmmakers and experts on domestic extremism attend this year’s #TruCon2024. The panel role-played how government officials should act to protect democracy in such a situation. Watch it at the link ➡️ https://bit.ly/4cBGEtB
