@John_Ka4y I hope so!

https://t.co/ZtaKde5ZT5 Not sure there are any red lines anymore... which evokes Sandy Hook for me in a deeply sad way... in any event, thanks for the clarity Charlie Warzel... goodbye, "bullshit machine"

[Bryan von Lossberg @BryanvL]

Charlie was right then... and he's right now...

[Charlie Warzel @cwarzel]

Anyhow here's my own reasoning for myself. No judgment on anyone else! Thanks for all the good tweets and even the bad ones because they made me laugh. 👋

Our final ESA/Hubble Picture of the Week features a vista of stellar birth!

This is a detail of the star-forming complex N159, which is found in the Large Magellanic Cloud, approximately 160,000 light-years away. 1/3

[NASA Mars @NASAMars]

Swiftly flow the days: As we approach the end of one year and the beginning of another on Earth, the Curiosity rover paused to send a postcard from Mars. The image combines one panorama taken after sunrise and another taken before sunset.

[NASA Earth @NASAEarth]

It’s not Christmas Eve without Earthrise.

This iconic photograph was taken on Dec. 24, 1968 astronaut Bill Anders as the Apollo 8 crew orbited the Moon. In 2026, four astronauts with NASA’s Artemis II mission will set out to venture around the Moon once again!

Happy holidays!🎄

[Captain Mark Kelly @CaptMarkKelly]

On Christmas Eve 1968, in Lunar orbit, the Apollo 8 crew took this photo: “Earthrise."

I'll never forget how inspiring the Apollo missions were to my brother and me as kids. They showed us what our country and humanity can accomplish when we work together toward a common goal.

[HUBBLE @HUBBLE_space]

This is the largest planet-forming disc ever seen around a young star! 🥇

The disc, IRAS 23077+6707, spans nearly 640 billion km – that’s 40 times the diameter of our Solar System! Hubble has revealed it to be unusually chaotic, with bright wisps of material extending far beyond the disc.

Beneath the presidency… but utterly consistent with the hateful, narcissistic soul of this president…

[Meghan McCain @MeghanMcCain]

This is awful, cruel and beneath President Trump.

Many things in life are more important than politics. The Reiner family is in unfathomable pain - the son slit his parents throats in a grizzly double murder. Why add to the pain?! Let the entire family have peace and privacy.

[Justin Amash @justinamash]

Self-centered and vindictive, utterly devoid of empathy, and morally bankrupt.

[NASA Webb Telescope @NASAWebb]

What does Webb and @NASAMars’ Curiosity Rover have in common?

They both help us explore worlds beyond Earth, teach us that great engineering feats are possible, and are both named in the 2025 TIME’s “Best Invention Hall of Fame”!

"The president inhabits a position of moral leadership. When the president and his officials sell their policies, they’re selling a version of what it means to be an American — what should evoke our love and our hate, our disgust and our delight." https://t.co/p3owOZOXnv

[Bryan von Lossberg @BryanvL]

Nope. Not what the study says,

[Karoline Leavitt @PressSec]

Fed Study Vindicates Trump Trade Policy: 150 Years of Evidence Shows Tariffs Lower Inflation

https://t.co/We6UqxsZsJ

[Steve Hou @stevehou]

The study does not say tariffs lead to lower inflation btw. It says that historically tariffs have been associated with lower inflation as a result of causing the economy to slow and unemployment rate to rise. In other words tariffs lead to lower inflation by crushing the economy. That’s very different than what the admin had billed as the purpose of tariffs.

[James Surowiecki @JamesSurowiecki]

The study finds that tariffs lower inflation because they slow the economy and raise unemployment. In other words, exactly what you'd expect from a sizeable tax increase.

[John A. Daly @JohnDalyBooks]

Hall of Fame.

[Erica York @ericadyork]

Still showing confusion, and the number has changed from $2 trillion to $3 trillion. At least it’s down from the $17-$19 trillion the President was mentioning a couple weeks ago.

[Erica York @ericadyork]

The President is confusing tariff revenues with investment plans

Tariff revenues are paid by US importers (CBP shows $89B paid through mid-Sept) and would need to be returned.

Investment plans from foreigners are separate and would not require repayment if abandoned.

[Space Telescope Science Institute @SpaceTelescope]

Flying through Dulles Airport near D.C.? If you’re taking the Metro, expect to be awed by almost 40 recently installed images from #NASAWebb, paired with more than 30 from the ever-active Hubble, on your way to the main terminal: https://t.co/1SDgVd1zSz #wmata 🔭 🧪
