‘West as we knew it no longer exists’ – EU’s von der Leyen

The bloc must look for new partners as trade tensions with the US increase, the European Commission president has said

The traditional idea of a united West is a thing of the past, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has admitted.

In an interview with the German newspaper Die Zeit published Tuesday, she claimed the EU no longer sees the US as its most important trading partner, after sweeping tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump.

“The West as we knew it no longer exists,” she said. “The world has become a globe also geopolitically, and today our networks of friendship span the globe, as you can see in the debate about tariffs.”

Her comments come after the Trump administration imposed a sweeping 20% tariff on all EU goods and a 25% tariff on all car imports. The EU responded by introducing its own retaliatory 25% tariffs on US imports. Trump later announced a 90-day pause on most global tariffs, pending negotiations with trade partners.

According to von der Leyen, tensions with the US have had a “positive side effect” in the form of numerous states attempting to court the EU.“Everyone is asking for more trade with Europe – and it’s not just about economic ties. It is also about establishing common rules and it is about predictability,” she said.(KEK I doubt that seriously.)

Asked whether her remarks about the West should beinterpreted as “a final farewell to the United States,” von der Leyen stressed thatshe “firmly believe[s]” in the US-EU friendship. “But the new reality also includes the fact that many other states are seeking to draw closer to us. 13% of global trade is with the United States. 87% of the world’s trade is with other countries,”she said. (Hmm how many countries are there, 13% is not bad. Her arguments are not hitting home.)

The EU should therefore “open up new markets for our companies and establish as close a relationship as possible with many countries that have the same interests as us,” von der Leyen added. (There is no other countries that have the same interests. She is complaining that the EU got away with high tariffs and how dare America require fair trade and tariffs, like us. Bizarre)

As tensions with the US continue to rise – with Trump even suggesting that the EU “was formed in order to screw” America –some leaders in the bloc have called for a review of bilateral ties. Earlier this month, French President Emmanuel Macron urged European firms to halt new investments in the US, asking: “What message would we send by investing billions… while they are hitting us?” (No country in the EU agree with the others, they are divided and don’t get much done, so a couple of countries asking for this will go no where. Plus the French companies told Macron to fuck off, when he told them to stop doing business with the U.S.)

(This whole interview was only done to try to scare Trump. Ursula, the dog killer’s messaging is ineffective!)

Virgo Cluster Galaxies

Galaxies of the Virgo Cluster are scattered across this nearly 4 degree wide telescopic field of view. About 50 million light-years distant, the Virgo Cluster is the closest large galaxy cluster to our own local galaxy group. Prominent here are Virgo's bright elliptical galaxies from the Messier catalog, M87 at bottom left, and M86 and M84 near center right. M86 and M84 are recognized as part of Markarian's Chain, the visually striking line-up of galaxies on the that runs through the upper portion of this frame. Near the middle of the chain lies an intriguing interacting pair of galaxies, NGC 4438 and NGC 4435, known to some as Markarian's Eyes. Still, giant elliptical galaxy M87 dominates the Virgo cluster. It's the home of a super massive black hole, the first black hole ever imaged by planet Earth's Event Horizon Telescope.

French PM accuses US of abandoning Western (NWO) values

Washington’s rupture with longtime allies over Ukraine has shattered the global order, Francois Bayrou has said

French Prime Minister Francois Bayrou has accused theUS of abandoning the values of the democratic world, saying Washington’s sudden pivottoward closer ties with Russiahas undermined the trust of its allies and shaken the global order.

In remarks delivered on Tuesday, Bayrou said theUS, once seen as the linchpin of the "alliance of free nations" and a guarantor of international law, had abandoned core Western values. He added it was “shocking” that a country long seen as a pillar of the global order “could suddenly side with the aggressor.”

Moscow and Washington have been engaged in negotiations since US President Donald Trump took office in January. The two countries have held several rounds of high-level talks focused on a possible peaceful resolution to the Ukraine conflict and also on restoring bilateral relations.

Some EU members and Kiev have expressed concern about what they perceive as Washington being on Russia’s side in the Ukraine conflict. Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky claimed this week that “Russian narratives are prevailing” within the Trump administration. The White House, meanwhile, has accused Zelensky of making “absurd”statements.

The French prime minister cited pressure on Ukraine “to surrender immediatelyto the demands of his aggressor under the threat of being cut off from all military aid” as evidence of a dramatic shift in US policy. (Lie)

Trump publicly clashed with Zelensky in February at the White House, accusing the Ukrainian leader of disrespect, ingratitude for past US aid, reluctance to seek peace with Russia, and “gambling with World War III.”

Trump later claimed Zelensky was attempting to push through a long-term aid deal, andtemporarily froze military assistance to Kiev.

In his speech, Bayrou alsocriticized Trump for dismantling decades of cooperation by launching a global trade war “without warning,”striking both rivals and allies alike with sweeping tariffs. (Fuck Trump has said he would impose tariffs for the last 4 years at every rally and speech he would impose tariffs, and for 40 years before that, they apparently didn’t believe it.)

He described the resulting fallout asa “cyclone”that undermined international law and economic stability.

Bayrou added that the French government urgently needs to reduce its budget deficit to confront a “tsunami of destabilization” caused by Trump’s tariffs.

(The French are emotional and liars, Macron sent him out to do this. Do they really think the U.S. cares? The global order, NWO was created by Neocons in the U.S., and they are mourning they can’t continue their rule over the world and intimidate countries with our backing. These people do not want peace, they make more money on weapons of war.)

France helped Zelensky write apology letter to Trump – Politico

British, French and German diplomats have reportedly been looking for ways to help Kiev restore relations with the US, the outlet claimed

French diplomats reportedly helped Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky write a conciliatory letter to US President Donald Trump in a bid to help the two leaders mend ties, Politico reported on Wednesday, citing an anonymous official.

Relations between Trump and Zelensky soured following the Ukrainian leader’s visit to Washington in late February. During a meeting at the White House, which included US Vice President J.D. Vance, Zelensky pushed back against Trump’s attempts to get Russia and Ukraine to the negotiating table.

In response, Trump and Vance accused Zelensky of being ungrateful for US support and “gambling with World War III” by refusing to engage in peace talks with Moscow. The meeting was cut short and Zelensky was told to leave and come back only when he is ready for peace. Trump also temporarily halted all US military assistance to Ukraine after the heated exchange, but later resumed support after Kiev agreed to a 30-day ceasefire proposal.

Despite resumed contacts, relations between Zelensky and Trump have remained strained, Politico noted. In the weeks after the row,diplomats in France, Germany and the UK “sweatedover how to try and repair the badly damaged relationship between Trump and Zelensky,” the outlet claimed.

While British Prime Minister Keir Starmer was holding calls with both leaders and sent advisors to both Washington and Kiev, French diplomats were helping Zelensky write a letter seeking reconciliation with Trump, Politico wrote, citing a French official.

While the content of the letter has not been made public, Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff has stated that it contained an apology from the Ukrainian leader for the Oval Office scandal. The US president also confirmed receiving an “important” letter from Zelensky in which the latter had expressed his readiness to “come to the negotiating table as soon as possible.”

Russia and Ukraine subsequently agreed to a 30-day partial ceasefire under which the two sides were to refrain from targeting each other’s energy infrastructure. However, Moscow has since accused Kiev of breaching the truce on an almost daily basis.

Meanwhile, following a five-hour-long meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin last week, Witkoff stated on Monday that the Ukraine peace process was on “the verge” of a breakthrough. He also acknowledged that the Russian leader is pursuing a permanent resolution of the conflict, a position that Moscow has consistently articulated from the beginning.

Science Meets Art: NASA Astronaut Don Pettit Turns the Camera on Science

Apr 17, 2025

NASA astronaut Don Pettit is scheduled to return home in mid-April after a seven-month mission aboard the International Space Station as part of Expedition 72.

Throughout his stay, Pettit contributed to research that benefits humanity and future space missions.

Pettit also shared what he calls “science of opportunity” to demonstrate how experimenting with our surroundings can help gain a better understanding of how things work.

This understanding is perhaps enhanced when art, science, and microgravity come together.

Electrostatic Displays

NASA astronaut Don Pettit demonstrates electrostatic forces using charged water droplets and a knitting needle made of Teflon.

This series of overlapping frames displays the unique attraction-repulsion properties of Teflon and charged droplets, similar to how charged particles from the Sun behave when they come in contact with Earth’s magnetic field.

Highly energetic particles from space that collide with atoms and molecules in the atmosphere create the aurora borealis.

Specialized Equipment for Superb Science

NASA astronaut Don Pettit snaps an image of the hands of NASA astronauts Nick Hague, left, and Suni Williams inside the Life Science Glovebox, a facility at the International Space Station that separates the science from the scientists, thus protecting both from contamination.

The freezers on the International Space Station are as crucial as its experiment modules, preserving samples for further analysis on Earth.

The Minus Eighty-Degree Laboratory Freezer for International Space Station stores samples at ultra-cold temperatures.

NASA astronaut Don Pettit used it to freeze thin ice wafers, which he photographed with a polarizing filter to reveal unique crystal structures.

New Tech Roll-Out

NASA astronaut Don Pettit films a time-lapse sequence of Canadarm2 retrieving Materials International Space Station Experiment (MISSE-20-Commercial) samples at the International Space Station.

This investigation exposed various experiments to the harsh space environment, such as vacuum, radiation, and extreme temperatures.

Findings could help in many areas, from designing more durable materials to advancing quantum communications.

A surge in International Space Station research supports NASA’s exploration efforts at the Moon and beyond, requiring more energy to operate the orbiting laboratory.

NASA astronaut Don Pettit photographs new and old solar arrays side by side. The technology used by the International Space Station Roll-Out Solar Arrays (IROSA) on the right was first tested aboard the station in 2017.

By 2023, six IROSAs were deployed aboard station, providing a 20-30% increase in power for research and operations.

Roll-Out Solar Arrays were also used on NASA’s DART asteroid mission and now are slated for the Gateway lunar outpost, a vital component of Artemis.

Squire for Spacewalks

NASA astronaut Don Pettit helped his colleagues suit up for two spacewalks in January. The first spacewalk involved patching the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER), a telescope that measures X-rays from neutron stars and other cosmic objects.

Sunlight interference affected data collection, and the patches reduced this issue. On the second spacewalk, astronauts collected samples from the exterior of the International Space Station for ISS External Microorganisms.

This investigation examines whether the orbiting laboratory releases microbes, how many, and how far these may travel. Findings could inform the design of future spacecraft, including spacesuits, to limit biocontamination during future space missions.

Photography with a Spin

NASA astronaut Don Pettit leveraged his stay aboard the International Space Station to photograph our planet with an artistic twist.

NASA astronaut Don Pettit wrote on social media about his snapshot of the Mediterranean Sea from the International Space Station, “Sun glint off the Mediterranean Sea (infrared and converted to black and white).

When the Sun reflects off the ocean, watery details unseen with normal lighting appear. Small centimeter differences in ocean height become visible, revealing hidden currents.”

NASA astronaut Don Pettit’s photography could contribute to the study of transient luminous events, colorful electrical discharges that occur above thunderstorms.

His imagery can be paired with data from the Atmosphere-Space Interactions Monitor (ASIM) and Thor-Davis, a high-speed thunderstorm camera.

The combined efforts of crew photography and instruments aboard the International Space Station help scientists better understand thunderstorms and their impacts on Earth’s upper atmosphere.

US wants UK to ditch ‘hate speech’ laws to secure trade deal – media

Washington and London are currently negotiating a tariff agreement

The administration of US President Donald Trump wants the UK government to repeal hate speech laws in order to secure a trade deal between the two nations, the Independent reported on Wednesday, citing claims by sources close to US Vice President J.D. Vance.

In a recent interview, Vance spoke of his admiration for the UK and expressed optimism about the negotiations.

Washington and London are “working very hard on a trade deal” within the new US tariff regime, he told the British website UnHerd on Tuesday.

However, the sources reportedly claimed to the Independent that Vance’s optimism on a trade deal “is a way of putting further pressure on the UK over free speech.”

“If a deal does not go through, it makes Labour look bad,” they reportedly said.

“No free speech, no deal. It is as simple as that.”

The UK government has rejected claims that the US has imposed a free speech ultimatum. The subject “is not a feature of the talks,” a Downing Street source told the newspaper.

The UK’s hate speech laws have led to a significant number of arrests. In 2023,UK police detained over 12,000 people – approximately 33 per day – for online messages deemed offensive or distressing under the legislation, according to The Times. Critics among civil liberties groups argue that these laws are vague and infringe on free speech.

Vance has previously criticized European leaders for retreating from democratic values. During a speech at the Munich Security Conference in February, he accused them of censoring speech and suppressing opposition parties, warning that the greatest threat to democracy comes from within.

The UK has been spared the worst of the massive wave of levies imposed by Trump earlier this month. The country faces a 10% tariff on all goods and 25% on steel, aluminum and automotive imports. The two countries are currently negotiating a new trade agreement during the 90-day pause in the tariff hike issued by the Trump administration.

(This does sound made up, a UK paper writing it to upset the country. I wish it were true though.)

US demanding $100bn compensation from Ukraine – Bloomberg

Washington reportedly still views a resource deal with Kiev as a way to recover funds spent on supporting the country

The US continues to insist that Ukraine should pay it tens of billions of dollars as part of a resource deal in compensation for American assistance in the conflict with Russia,but has scaled back its initial assessment of the final amount, Bloomberg reported on Wednesday, citing sources.

Washington and Kiev have for weeks been discussing a resource deal – a concept first floated by Vladimir Zelensky last year – which would grant the US access to Ukraine’s deposits of rare earths.

Following a round of talks in Washington last week, officials from the administration of US President Donald Trump cut their estimate of American assistance to Kiev from more than $300 billion to about $100 billion, Bloomberg sources said. Ukraine itself assesses total aid US during the conflict with Russia at just over $90 billion.

However, US officials still view the resource deal “as an opportunity to recoup costs in Ukraine through profits” received from a joint fund, the size of which is still unknown, a Bloomberg source claimed. Ukraine has consistently rejected the idea that US aid constitutes a debt, insisting that assistance was provided unconditionally.

Kiev is also pushing for future US investment in the joint fund, although Trump’s team has been reluctant to entertain the ideawhile insisting that previous American military support should be counted as Washington’s contribution, the article said.

Asked to comment on the state of the negotiations, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told Bloomberg thatthe sides “are very, very close” to finding a consensus, and that the agreement “could even be signed as early as this week.”

The two sides were close to signing a deal in late February, with the ceremony widely expected to take place during Zelensky’s visit to the Oval Office. However, the event devolved into a public spat, with Trump accusing Zelensky of disrespect, ingratitude for past US aid, reluctance to seek peace with Russia, and “gambling with World War III.”

US to tie tariff deals to China curbs – WSJ

Washington reportedly aims to leverage tariff negotiations to isolate Beijing

The US plans to use tariff negotiations to push trade partners to scale back economic ties with China, the Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday,citing sources familiar with the talks. The strategy is reportedly aimed at securing commitments from countries hit by recent US tariff hikes to help isolate China’s economy and pressure Beijing to negotiate.

US President Donald Trump announced new “reciprocal” tariffs on nearly 90 countries earlier this month, citing unfair trade practices. After global markets reacted by dropping sharply and several governments sought exemptions, he paused most of the tariffs for 90 days, reducing them to a baseline rate of 10%. However, the pause does not apply to China, whose exports to the US are now subject to tariffs of up to 145% amid an ongoing tit-for-tat trade war.

US officials aim to convince trade partners toaccept permanent tariff cuts in exchange for curbing their economic engagement with China, according to the WSJ. Proposed commitments may vary by country, but could reportedly include stopping China from rerouting exports through third-party nations, banning Chinese firms from setting up operations locally to avoid US tariffs, and limiting imports of low-cost Chinese industrial goods.

Sources said the measures are meant to undermine China’s economy and reduce its leverage ahead of potential negotiations between Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping. The US has already raised the proposal in early discussions with some countries, sources claimed.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was reportedly one of the main architects of the plan. Sources claimed he presented the strategy to Trump during an April 6 meeting at Mar-a-Lago, arguing that obtaining concessions from partners could prevent China from evading tariffs and export controls. He previously named the UK, Australia, South Korea, India, and Japan as countries likely to finalize trade agreements with Washington in the near future.

The White House and Treasury Department declined to comment on the WSJ report. On Tuesday, Trump urged China to initiate negotiations to resolve the tariff dispute.

“The ball is in China’s court. China needs to make a deal with us. We don’t have to make a deal with them,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said, quoting a statement she claimed was dictated by the president.

Beijing, however, has so far refused to back down. On Friday, China announced it would impose a 125% tariff on all US goods, reiterating it will “fight to the end” against Washington’s trade policy. Beijing also signaled this could be the last increase, noting that “at the current tariff level, there is no market acceptance for US goods exported to China,” while adding that other countermeasures are being considered.

(WSJ, the Murdoch’s and neocons promoted the deindustrialization of America, so they warn China in advance, if it’s true.)

A Supreme Court Ruling on Labor Boards Could Let Trump Take Over the Federal Reserve

April 17, 2025 05:38 AM

If the Supreme Court rules that President Donald Trump is allowed to fire the members of the National Labor Relations Board and the Merit Systems Protections Board, the justices would also be implicitly giving Trump more control over interest rates and monetary policy, a group of legal scholars and the fired commissioners argued to the top court this week.

On its face, the case in question is just about fired federal workers — specifically, Gwynne Wilcox from the NLRB and Cathy Harris from the MSPB.

But all the parties agree that a bigger legal question is at play on the subject of the president’s power. Some close court watchers say the only logical extension of the government’s arguments is political control over the Federal Reserve too.

Jerome Powell, the Fed’s chair, said, “It’s a situation that we’re monitoring carefully,” at The Economic Club of Chicago on Wednesday. “That’s a case that people are talking about a lot. I don’t think that that decision will apply to the Fed, but I don’t know.”

Trump posted on Truth Social Thursday morning that Powell’s “termination cannot come fast enough!”

Strongest hints yet of biological activity outside the solar system

17 April 2025

Astronomers have detected the most promising signs yet of a possible biosignature outside the solar system, although they remain cautious.

Using data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), the astronomers, led by the University of Cambridge, have detected the chemical fingerprints of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and/or dimethyl disulfide (DMDS), in the atmosphere of the exoplanet K2-18b, which orbits its star in the habitable zone.

On Earth, DMS and DMDS are only produced by life, primarily microbial life such as marine phytoplankton.

While an unknown chemical process may be the source of these molecules in K2-18b’s atmosphere, the results are the strongest evidence yet that life may exist on a planet outside our solar system.

The observations have reached the ‘three-sigma’ level of statistical significance – meaning there is a 0.3% probability that they occurred by chance.

To reach the accepted classification for scientific discovery, the observations would have to cross the five-sigma threshold, meaning there would be below a 0.00006% probability they occurred by chance.

The researchers say between 16 and 24 hours of follow-up observation time with JWST may help them reach the all-important five-sigma significance.

Earlier observations of K2-18b — which is 8.6 times as massive and 2.6 times as large as Earth, and lies 124 light years away in the constellation of Leo — identified methane and carbon dioxide in its atmosphere.

This was the first time that carbon-based molecules were discovered in the atmosphere of an exoplanet in the habitable zone.

Those results were consistent with predictions for a ‘Hycean’ planet: a habitable ocean-covered world underneath a hydrogen-rich atmosphere. However, another, weaker signal hinted at the possibility of something else happening on K2-18b.

“We didn’t know for sure whether the signal we saw last time was due to DMS, but just the hint of it was exciting enough for us to have another look with JWST using a different instrument,” said Professor Nikku Madhusudhan from Cambridge’s Institute of Astronomy, who led the research.

To determine the chemical composition of the atmospheres of faraway planets, astronomers analyse the light from its parent star as the planet transits, or passes in front of the star as seen from the Earth.

As K2-18b transits, JWST can detect a drop in stellar brightness, and a tiny fraction of starlight passes through the planet’s atmosphere before reaching Earth.

The absorption of some of the starlight in the planet’s atmosphere leaves imprints in the stellar spectrum that astronomers can piece together to determine the constituent gases of the exoplanet’s atmosphere.

From data collection to processing, satellite systems continue to advance, and NASA is exploring how instruments analyzing clouds can improve data measurement methods.

Researchers participating in the Goddard Space Flight Center Lidar Observation and Validation Experiment (GLOVE) used the ER-2 – based at NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California – to validate satellite data about cloud and airborne particles in the Earth’s atmosphere.

Scientists are using GLOVE instruments installed onboard the aircraft to measure and validate data about clouds generated by satellite sensors already orbiting in space around Earth.

“The GLOVE data will allow us to test new artificial intelligence algorithms in data processing,” said John Yorks, principal investigator for GLOVE and research physical scientist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.

“These algorithms aim to improve the cloud and aerosol detection in data produced by the satellites.”

The validation provided by GLOVE is crucial because it ensures the accuracy and reliability of satellite data.

“The instruments on the plane provide a higher resolution measurement ‘truth’ to ensure the data is a true representation of the atmospheric scene being sampled,” Yorks said.

The ER-2 flew over various parts of Oregon, Arizona, Utah, and Nevada, as well as over the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California.

These regions reflected various types of atmospheres, including cirrus clouds, marine stratocumulus, rain and snow, and areas with multiple types of clouds.

“The goal is to improve satellite data products for Earth science applications,” Yorks said.

“These measurements allow scientists and decision-makers to confidently use this satellite information for applications like weather forecasting and hazard monitoring.”

The four instruments installed on the ER-2 were the Cloud Physics Lidar, the Roscoe Lidar, the enhanced Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer Airborne Simulator, and the Cloud Radar System.

These instruments validate data produced by sensors on NASA’s Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite 2 (ICESat-2) and the Earth Cloud, Aerosol and Radiation Explorer (EarthCARE), a joint venture between the ESA (European Space Agency) and JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency).

“Additionally, the EarthCARE satellite is flying the first ever Doppler radar for measurements of air motions within clouds,” Yorks said.

While the ER-2 is operated by pilots and aircrew from NASA Armstrong, these instruments are supported by scientists from NASA Goddard, NASA’s Ames Research Center in California’s Silicon Valley, and the Naval Research Laboratory office in Monterey, California, as well as by students from the University of Iowa in Iowa City and the University of Maryland College Park.

Former Federal Aviation Administration Contractor Pleads Guilty to Illegally Acting as an Agent of the Iranian Government

@DOJNatSec @USAO_DC

Assistant Director in Charge Steven Jensen said, "Today's guilty plea demonstrates the FBI's zero tolerance policy for Iran's repeated attempts to undermine U.S. national security. Rahmati's case should serve as a warning to Americans with access to sensitive U.S. critical technology that Iranian intelligence services see them as a target. The FBI and our partners will continue to relentlessly identify and disrupt hostile actors' efforts to target our infrastructure."

Report to Congress on Golden Dome Program

April 17, 2025 10:07 AM

The following is the April 16, 2025, Congressonal Research Service In Focus report, The Golden Dome (Iron Dome) for America: Overview and Issues for Congressional Consideration.

From the report

On January 27, 2025, President Trump issued Executive Order (EO) 14186, titled The Iron Dome for America.

The EO announced a shift in U.S. missile defense policy, expanding the scope of the homeland missile defense mission and directing the Department of Defense (DOD) to develop “a next generation missile shield.”

The EO directed the Secretary of Defense to submit several deliverables to begin implementing this new policy. In February 2025, the executive branch redubbed the project “Golden Dome for America.”

Some Members of Congress have asserted Golden Dome’s potential benefit to homeland defense and have introduced legislation to support it.

Other Members have questioned its possible effects on strategic stability—that is, the balance of capabilities and policies among potential adversaries that diminishes incentives for engaging in a nuclear arms race or nuclear use.

Projected costs, which vary widely, may feature prominently in debates over the FY2026 defense budget.

The security benefits, strategic impact, and cost of Golden Dome depend in part on characteristics of the proposed missile shield that have not been publicly detailed.

Parts of the EO are stated generally and could be viewed as subject to interpretation. When Members of Congress have sought additional detail in public hearings, DOD officials testifying have largely refrained from commenting.

DOD may provide more detail in the deliverables required by the EO, but it is unclear whether DOD will release these deliverables publicly or share them with Congress. Several of these deliverables were due to the President 60 days after the EO was issued.

On March 27, it was reported that the President would receive three options for the architecture the following week, and on April 9, a DOD official testified that the Secretary was discussing options with the President.

Overview of the Executive Order

The EO generally expanded the scope of the U.S. homeland missile defense mission, in terms of the actors and the threats that the United States intends to defend against.

The order declared that it is U.S. policy to “deter—and defend its citizens and critical infrastructure against—any foreign aerial attack on the Homeland.”

It specified that this policy includes defending “against ballistic, hypersonic, advanced cruise missiles, and other next-generation aerial attacks from peer, near-peer, and rogue adversaries.”

Previously, under the Biden Administration, first Trump Administration, and Obama Administrations, homeland missile defense policy focused on the threat from intercontinental ballistic missiles and emphasized developing capabilities to defend against strikes from rogue states, such as North Korea and Iran, while relying on U.S. nuclear capabilities to deter attacks from peer and near-peer states, such as Russia and China.

The EO also directed the Secretary of Defense to take several actions. Within 60 days, the Secretary was to submit to the President

a “reference architecture,” “capabilities-based requirements,” and implementation plan for the “next-generation missile shield”;

“a plan to fund this directive,” submitted with the Office of Management and Budget;

“an updated assessment of the strategic missile threat to the homeland”; and

“a prioritized set of locations to progressively defend against a countervalue attack.” (The term countervalue often refers to nonmilitary targets for nuclear weapons, such as cities and civilian population centers.)

Although the EO focused on the U.S. homeland, it also directed the Secretary of Defense to review theater missile defense capabilities.

(U.S. policymakers often use the descriptor theater—or regional—to differentiate between defenses tailored for threats abroad versus the U.S. homeland.)

The theater missile defense review is to identify opportunities for increased international cooperation on missile defense and improved defense of U.S. forward-deployed troops and allied territories, troops, and populations.

Scrub Jay at the Vehicle Assembly Building

Apr 16, 2025

A scrub jay perches on a branch near the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on June 22, 2020.

Kennedy shares space with the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, which is home to more than 65 amphibian and reptile, 25 mammal, 117 fish, and 330 bird species.

At the time this photo was taken, the NASA “meatball” logo – in the background here – on the Vehicle Assembly Building was being repainted.

This iconic building is where the Artemis launch vehicles are stacked and processed in preparation for future missions to the Moon.

Leaked White House Document Reveals Monster Budget Cut Proposal For Federal Health Agencies

Tyler Durden's Photo

by Tyler Durden

Thursday, Apr 17, 2025 - 08:45 AM

The Trump administration could slash roughly one-third of the federal government’s bloated health budget, a leaked White House proposal shows. The plan, first reported by the Washington Post and detailed in documents acquired by CNN, calls for slashing “tens of billions of dollars” annually, targeting a host of programs across multiple agencies.

The proposal, already sent to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), aligns with HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s “Make America Healthy Again” initiative and tech titan Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, sources say.

The proposal, part of President Donald Trump’s broader push to curb government waste, would eliminate billions in annual spending and reign in a sprawling bureaucracy that employs 82,000 workers across 10 regional offices, with average salaries of $100,000 plus generous benefits.

The plan calls for steep cuts to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which would see its budget reduced by more than 40% under the administration’s proposal.

It also eliminates CDC’s global health center and programs focused on chronic disease prevention, and domestic HIV/AIDS prevention. While some of the agency’s work would be moved into new AHA centers, programs on gun violence, injury prevention, youth violence prevention, drowning, minority health and others would be eliminated entirely.

The preliminary plan would slash the National Institutes of Health’s budget by more than 40% and reduce its 27 research institutes and centers down to just eight.
