"For decades, Americans have been conditioned to believe "foreign policy" is the policy of prioritzing the interests of foreign nations over American interests. After all, that's how previous presential administrations have behaved. But Donald Trump won the presidency because he promised a foreign policy that put America first. So what does Trump's "America First" foreign policy doctrine mean in practice? What does putting America first actually look like in terms of our relations with the nearly two hundred countries around the globe? This book, written for those who scratch their heads at the mention of South Ossetia or Kurdistan, will take the entire world and break it down piece by piece, showing where America's vital interests lie in the current geopolitical climate."--Amazon.com

During the Iraq War, he served an extended assignment with the Provincial Reconstruction Team in Basrah, Iraq, as part of a team dedicated to economic development in that region; the Superior Honor Award for efforts in that posting is one of several awards he received while working for State.

Prior to working for State, he taught history for several years in the Choctaw Tribal School System near Philadelphia, Mississippi. He lives in Oxford, Mississippi, where he is active in his local Catholic parish, the Sons of the American Revolution, and the Sons of Confederate Veterans. Married for over twenty-five years to Dana Polus, a native of the Czech Republic, he has four children, three of whom attend his alma mater, the University of Mississippi (Ole Miss). He is also a knight of the Constantinian Order of St. George, the dynastic order of the House of Bourbon-Two Sicilies.
