WATCH: Trump, EPA's Zeldin announce end of scientific basis for U.S. action on climate change The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressiv...

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, weโ€™ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate changeโ€”all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

Formal portrait of now-retired NASA astronaut Peggy Whitson in her full white spacesuit with American flag and NASA insignia patches. She stands confidently holding her helmet, smiling warmly at the camera. The suit includes the Extravehicular Mobility Unit backpack, gloves, and detailed mission patches, with American and NASA flags in the background.

Color photograph of Peggy Whitson floating weightlessly inside the International Space Station during the Ax-2 mission. She is smiling broadly while posed in a dynamic zero-gravity position with one leg bent and arms extended, wearing a black and blue Ax-2 branded jumpsuit with the Axiom Space logo and mission patch. Earthโ€™s blue atmosphere and clouds are visible through the large window behind her, highlighting her joyful expression in orbit.

Whitson participates in a spacewalk that lasted more than seven hours on Oct. 10, 2007. During the spacewalk, Whitson and astronaut Daniel Tani replaced a motor at the base of one of the station's solar wings.

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientistโ€”because the person felt she did didnโ€™t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Epstein's sex empire was 'KGB honeytrap' The release of more than three million new documents relating to the late sex offender gives credence to claims made by senior security officials: that Epstein was working on behalf of Moscow.

If true, this could explain a lot: Epsteinโ€™s mysterious money; the wire transactions to former Soviet states; Trumpโ€™s submissiveness around Putin.

Whatโ€™s really sickening, are the obvious Hispanic names..

Theyโ€™re basically using Kapos..

Ladder pullers..

People who should have compassion and understanding of their heritage and the struggles others face in order to make it to America..

But would rather oppress and brutalize their own..
