Don’t let Trump and Musk gut NASA
NASA’s proposed budget cuts threaten its ability to lead space exploration and prioritize scientific research. President Trump’s plan to reduce funding by 19% would have devastating consequences for our nation’s standing in the field of space exploration. Furthermore, Elon Musk’s ambition to privatize NASA’s mission could undermine the agency’s long-term sustainability and impact its ability to carry out its scientific and exploration goals effectively. If these proposals are implemented, the United States’ role as a leader in space exploration could be compromised, as other countries like China and Russia continue to invest heavily in their space programs. NASA’s proposed cuts would not only impact the agency itself but also have far-reaching implications for American innovation and scientific advancement.

What Trump’s Revenge Agenda Is Hiding
The long list of individuals targeted by Trump in recent weeks includes those who have investigated him or been critical of him, such as former FBI Director James Comey and Justice Department official Bruce Ohr. But the purge goes beyond personal vendettas.

Manhattan D.A. Concedes Trump Can’t Be Sentenced—but It’s Not Over Yet

Democrats Should Let Trump Be Trump
The Democrats may believe that by hindering Trump or any of his accomplishments they will get one over on the almost half of America that voted for him and that by doing so they will increase their chances in the midterm elections. However, if the Democrats are too adversarial, it will increase the likelihood that Trump will be elected for a second term. That is not good for the country. Trump was elected because of the elitist attitudes of those in power who are Democrats. Now, if the Democrats win in 2018 and 2020 it will only be because they ran on returning power to the people. It will not be because they tried to obstruct and control the people’s power.
