Council on Foreign Relations

CFR is a nonpartisan nonprofit think tank and membership organization, not owned by any company or individual, funded mainly by member dues, corporate memberships, foundation grants, and its endowment. It publishes Foreign Affairs and hosts a roster of former and current officials from both parties, giving it a bipartisan, establishment foreign-policy orientation. Its coverage and commentary on the Trump administration are mixed, reflecting both the administration-aligned and establishment-critical voices among its membership and contributors.
