Photos of Jupiter From NASA Spacecraft, Both Near and Far

The Juno space probe and the Hubble Space Telescope recorded new images of Jupiter that will help scientists study the solar system’s largest planet.

Pretty pictures.

Seeking Insight Into Trump Voters

Why do those who are being harmed by the president’s policies still support him? Readers speculate.

The Trump voters are as desperate as the Sanders
voters.

The president my fellow believers elected is about to show them what betrayal really looks like.

Right and Left: Partisan Writing You Shouldn’t Miss

Read about how the other side thinks: How Trump is like FDR, why the left should reject net neutrality, and where red and blue America agree.

The attempts to defang the Russian involvement had escaped my attention.

The Gorsuch Fight Changed the Senate. Will It Change the Court?

Over the long term, the court may become more polarized.

Yes.

The Republicans have carried on a century long battle to recapture the Supreme Court.

They have succeeded.

Tomi Lahren Sues Glenn Beck, Saying She Was Fired for Her Stance on Abortion

Ms. Lahren, a star in conservative media, is still being paid by The Blaze, a TV station Mr. Beck started, but she said the company has sought to silence her.

It is a conflict over the creed.
She should win.  She will be shunned.

Hillary Clinton, Free to Speak Her Mind

The defeated candidate, always careful as a politician in choosing her words, gives her first interview since the election.

Yes.

The Russians supplied and delivered the Sarin.
The Tomahawk attack on the airbase was a possible response short of world war.
Asade survives because he was not responsible.

Damaging Your Phone, Accidentally on Purpose

Consumers are more likely to be careless with products when they know an upgrade is available, research has found.

Interesting study.

Travel

Land Ho! Cruise Lines Offer Tours Beyond the Sea

Royal Caribbean, Celebrity Cruises and Azamara have trips to destinations like Oman (camping in the desert) and Cambodia (Angkor Wat).

I object to the packaged quality.

Now, the Ball Is in John Roberts’s Court

The fate of Supreme Court nominees now depends entirely on which political party controls the Senate. What will Chief Justice Roberts do about that?


The Chief Justice will do little or nothing.
