Carl Sagan was prescient.
Here’s Kamala Harris on the “recklessness” of those who didn’t try to convince Biden to drop out sooner… An exclusive excerpt from her forthcoming memoir, published this morning in The Atlantic:
if gavin newsom wins the nomination, that's between democratic voters and god, but on paper he really has nothing you'd abstractly want from a candidate (overperformance vs partisan baseline, winning swing or red states, juice with specific demographics)
Today, I and my collaborator, Catarina Alves de Oliveira, have published an article in The Astrophysical Journal Letters that presents the discovery of the least massive known brown dwarfs using the James Webb Space Telescope: sites.psu.edu/kluhman/ic348/
A lot more to say here than I can jam into some tweets, so here it is: Abundance's "Theory of Power," explained. nytimes.com/2025/06/08/opi…

ICYMI: Trump has released his 2026 budget that include cuts for: NSF: -56% NIH: -40% EPA: -55% CDC: -33% NASA: -24% Make no mistake - this is not just trimming the budget. These cuts are a direct attack on U.S. research, innovation, and public health.
The FY2026 President's Budget Request includes: 47% cuts to NASA Science. 56% cuts to NSF. 28% cuts to NIST. 14% cuts to the DOE Office of Science. These requests have serious implications for the U.S. scientific enterprise. aas.org/posts/news/202…
The American Astronomical Society is gravely concerned by the deep cuts to NASA science funding reported to be in the draft President’s Budget Request for Fiscal Year 2026. Read more here: aas.org/press/aas-stat… and take action now: aas.org/urge-nasa-supp…
"The Democratic Party, at least in theory, is an organization dedicated to winning political power through elected office, though this might seem hard to believe, on the evidence provided by its official proceedings," writes @jonathanchait: theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
Democrats forfeiting their role as the party that wants to improve public education is an underexamined political and policy failure nymag.com/intelligencer/…
It's very cool that our JWST image of IC348 is under consideration for a stamp, but it's also funny/ironic since that the pretty extended emission is a bad thing from my point point of view, making it more difficult to detect faint brown dwarfs about.usps.com/newsroom/natio…
Wait... @PeteButtigieg debated 25 undecided Michigan voters?! WHAT Is there anything he won't do? this man is fearless

“The most damning critiques of Donald Trump and the most dire warnings about what it would mean if he came back into the White House came from people who served him closest in his administration in the most sensitive and important positions.” — @jonkarl
