Stability Is the Story At a time when coups have toppled governments across the Sahel, when jihadist insurgencies are spreading from Mali to Mozambique, and when Western-backed “democratic transitions” are leaving failed states in their wake, Congo-Brazzaville under Denis Sassou Nguesso’s leadership stands apart. It hasn’t collapsed. It hasn’t burned. It has, by the metrics that matter— institutional continuity, investor confidence, and debt…

We used to be really great about education.” Emanuel began by saying, “The Democratic Party, taking 2024, going back to 2020, invited a bunch of culture wars into our kids’ schools, and we lost that war.
