President Donald
Trump’s administration unveiled its third budget proposal Monday, cementing a
vision for the United States that bolsters funding for defense and border
walls, while severely cutting social programs for the nation’s poorest.
The $4.7 trillion
budget proposal, which encompasses everything from funding for food aid,
education, and health care to national defense, seeks to slash $845
billion from Medicare — a program Trump notably promised to leave untouched —
cut from Medicaid through major structural reforms, as well as a 9 percent cut
across non-defense programs, all while increasing the defense budget to $750
billion, 5 percent more than the 2019 budget.
Is War With Iran on the Horizon?
By Bob Dreyfuss
Here’s the foreign policy question of questions in 2019:
Are President Donald Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, all severely weakened at home and with
few allies abroad, reckless enough to set off a war with Iran?
Could military actions designed to be limited — say, a
heightening of the Israeli bombing of Iranian forces inside Syria, or possible
U.S. cross-border attacks from Iraq, or a clash between American and Iranian
naval ships in the Persian Gulf — trigger a wider war?

کاوُشهای ستارهای
تحقیقات جدید
نشان میدهند که جریان نامنظم مواد در درون خورشید میتوانند دلیل لکههای خوشهای
باشند که بطور تصادفی در سطح خورشید دیده میشوند. به منظور مطالعهٔ گستردهتر در مورد
خورشید، سازمان ناسا(1) در ۱۲ اوت سفینه
"پارکر سولار پروب"(2) را پرتاب کرد. این کشتی فضائی تا چهار میلیون مایلز به
خورشید نزدیک خواهد شد، که البته این کوتاهترین فاصلهای است که تا کنون انسان
توانسته است به این ستارهٔ آتشبار نزدیک شود.
