The only known (to me) movement conservative on the panel is Ed Meese. Scowcroft and Baker are 100% utilitarian - they don’t care much about ideas.

This would be a major power grab by the legislative branch at the expense of the executive. Certainly any President would veto it. If the War Powers Act is unconstitutional, this thing, with a permanent congressional staff to serve a check on executive military authority, is an abomination on a par with the stupid “co-presidency” that was briefly contemplated back when Reagan became the Republican Nominee in 1980.
