Image SpaceX. NASA got through the Artemis II mission last week with a few minor “anomalies,” as NASA calls problems, but in 2028 it plans to launch a nuclear-powered rocket to Mars as an initial step to using nuclear-powered rockets in space. An accident involving a nuclear-powered rocket could be no small anomaly. The NASA plan was heralded in a section titled “America underway on nuclear power in space” in a NASA announcement on March 24th headed “NASA Unveils Initiatives to Achieve America’s National Space Policy.” It said that “after decades of study and in response to the National Space…

An online ad attacks Rep. Seth Moulton, a Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in Massachusetts, for not being sufficiently progressive because of past policy positions. But it also misleadingly claims that Moulton, a critic of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, “thanked ICE as they were terrorizing our communities and then killed citizens.” The claim about ICE is based on Moulton’s vote for a June 2025 House resolution condemning a terrorist attack at a pro-Israel demonstration in Boulder, Colorado, that month. The last sentence of the resolution acknowledged law enforcement, including ICE officers, “for protecting the homeland.” However, at the time…
During a worship service at the Pentagon on Wednesday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth read a prayer to bless the government’s war efforts in Iran, which “was shared to him by the lead planner” of the Combat Search and Rescue operation (CSAR) that “rescued two Air Force crew members shot down over Iran,” reports USA Today. “The path of the downed aviator is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men,” Hegseth read. “Blessed is he who, in the name of camaraderie and duty, shepherd the lost through the valley of darkness, for he…

Joshua Scheer In a vote that cuts straight through the carefully managed language of Washington diplomacy, seven Senate Democrats broke with much of their party and joined Republicans to block an effort that would have halted U.S. arms sales to Israel. The resolution—introduced by Sen. Bernie Sanders—failed 40–59, ensuring the continued transfer of military equipment as the region slides…
My love affair with America has been a long one. It began when I was a boy in Africa. For me, America was a fairyland, a place of stupendous wonders: finned cars, 27 varieties of ice cream, movie glamor, and endless inventions. It was “a shining city upon a hill,” long before President Ronald Reagan solemnized that phrase. America shone as a place of untrammeled opportunity to do anything and become anything. Now, after living here for over 60 years, I still find it full of opportunity. And where there is opportunity, there is hope. In America you have the…

GEN McChrystal was a martial disaster. What wrong looks like… This is what happens when your architects fall in love with their processes so much they forget about the objective. Military students should really study why graduate-level white papers, PowerPoint slides, and endless Battle Update Brief (BUB) and Commander’s Update Brief (CUB) “battle rhythm events” didn’t beat a decentralized bunch of illiterate goat-herding Muslim jihadists. The Taliban is one of the most successful Islamic insurgencies since the 17th century. Steven Pressfield: “It’s the tribes, stupid.” “It was only Mao who said, ‘there is no such thing as a decisive battle’…
