"Researchers are reporting the results of the most sensitive and high-resolution survey to date of three molecular clouds in the Central Molecular Zone near the Milky Way's galactic center, and those three regions are absolutely paying out like slot machines, if slot machines paid out protoplanetary disks. The astronomers estimate that these molecular clouds contain about 300 protoplanetary systems that they were able to identify."

Noem declined to say whether she supported actually taking that step and said Trump would make any decision.

"This is something that's not in my purview to weigh in on," she said. "This is the president's prerogative to pursue, and he has not indicated to me that he will or will not be taking that action."

Since you don't believe that, I suppose you won't believe the article where he's changed his mind.

" to raise the tax rate on the highest earners and the other to close the so-called carried interest loophole, according to a Republican leadership source, as well as two other GOP sources familiar with the call."

To try to get Democrats on board? Or if the Dems vote against it, to use as campaign fodder?

The reason I think this is mildly interesting is that the article's main revelation is to just make the data a "this or that" presentation. They aren't changing the information, they're merely changing the presentation of how the data is displayed to get people to see what the scientists are seeing. It's literally a "Keep It Simple, Stupid" approach.

A clear example of NPR's biased journalism /sarcasm.

According to Politico

Trump sends a scorched-earth budget plan. GOP lawmakers hate it already. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/05/02/trumps-budget-asks-congress-00323256

Congressional Republicans aired some of their grievances about public broadcasting to Kerger and Maher at a public hearing in March. Such complaints have been common over the years, but the broadcasters have avoided funding cuts, in large part because members of Congress don’t want to be seen as responsible if a station in their district shuts down. Who wants to be the public official who killed “Sesame Street”?

That's what I thought, too, But according to that law firm's (https://cornerstonelaw.us/22nd-amendment-doesnt-say-think-says/) article,

While the Amendment’s drafters spilled extra ink ensuring that someone who is elevated to the Presidency for more than two years of another President’s term due to that other President’s death or removal from office, it does nothing to clarify that one who is elected twice cannot rise to the Presidency again. In short, if the 22nd Amendment’s purpose was to ensure that there was a 10 year maximum on service for anyone regardless of how they became President, it could have said so.

and with our Supreme Court in his pocket...

You can only go so far back, and then it won't let you edit older posts. I tried many months ago.

Gotta make those cuts! /s

Cybersecurity is as important to national defense as the military is. And while they won't mess with the military, all they want to do is cut things they don't understand. They knee-jerk react to things and act as though they are making things better.

Biden was not on track, but he had an office for it.

I can't prove you wrong, but your post made me wonder this: Senator Ted Stevens in 2006, said that "the Internet is a series of tubes". Every one of those tubes must have an end. The Anus is the end of a tube (the lower intestine). Therefore, the Internet is a series of anuses. Prove me wrong.
