Welcome to the official Substack account of the U.S. Department of State! We’ve been on Substack for a little over a month now sharing with you insights, updates, and deep dives into the Trump Administration’s foreign policy from various department officials. We look forward to sharing more exclusive articles with you and conversations on American diplomacy and foreign policy.

Be bored more often.
Go for long walks. Meditate. Journal your thoughts. Read new books. Spend time alone without devices. You would get to understand yourself a lot much better. Your brain gets the best ideas when it is left to wander.
In those quiet moments, you'll uncover clarity and inspiration that can't be found in constant stimulation.
You always own your intellectual property, mailing list, and subscriber payments. With full editorial control and no gatekeepers, you can do the work you most believe in.

A little hard to figure out what all is going on in this situation, especially since it's not entirely clear whether the charge against Larrazábal is legit, and I suppose it's possible that Mestre or his supporters are deliberately promoting a charge against Larrazábal the credibility of which they know to be questionable, or otherwise interfering with the nomination process in an inappropriate way...
But with all that said, it does sound like the Vatican's preferred scenario was "We nominate Larrazábal and no one brings up the skeletons in his closet." So I guess we've learned nothing from McCarrick.
