Whisper it quietly, but Republicans who are up for re-election next year seem to understand that Trump is becoming a big liability. www.politico.com/live-updates...

Citizen activism and legislative pressures helped stop US nuclear weapon testing. They will be needed again to protect the moratorium against Trump's call for renewed testing, writes David Cortright of the Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies at @notredame.bsky.social.

Happy to see my interview with @mediapart.fr translated into Spanish (and on the front page of @infolibre.es!)

This is truly excellent.

GIVE ME A BREAK.

🚨 JUST IN: Despite being highly anticipated, the sudden change in public rhetoric about this year's "Zapad" strategic military exercise suggests that the Russia-Belarus relationship may be more complicated than it appears, write @gabrielairosa.bsky.social and @dexeve.bsky.social. #nuclearweapons

Just your regular reminder that misinformed and confusing rants can have real consequences.

The ending of A House of Dynamite leaves many questions unanswered, intentionally. In reality, we won’t have that luxury. My colleague Isabelle Williams and I pick up where the movie ends, exploring what would unfold in the minutes, hours, and months after the missile hits Chicago.

Again, every day it’s a new embarrassment!

🚨 JUST IN: What did Trump mean by resuming nuclear testing? And what are the implications, in the worst-case scenario? Bulletin's Dan Drollette reports, extensively quoting nuclear expert @nukestrat.bsky.social and others. #nuclearweapons #nucleartesting #Trump #nukesky

Correct: “one thing that seems to get overlooked is that the United States has benefited from a test ban as much as anyone else. Consequently, bringing the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty into force would lock in an American advantage in nuclear knowledge and expertise”

Experts respond to Trump's proposal to "start testing our Nuclear Weapons on an equal basis" as other nations. ⬇️

President Trump's recent comments about nuclear testing are clueless, ambiguous, and dangerous. thebulletin.org/2025/10/the-...

Go figure.

Good luck with that, really.

Actually soon to be available for free for a limited time. Check back soon!

Donald Trump has reportedly told the Pentagon to resume nuclear tests (though it's unclear if he refers to explosive or missile tests). Here's a thread of relevant Bulletin articles, beginning with this 2025 piece by Sulgiye Park, Jennifer Knox, and @dkspaulding.bsky.social. ⬇️

"Despite an international treaty banning all nuclear detonations, the issue of nuclear weapons testing is taking center stage once again." "Introduction: Nuclear testing in the 21st century—legacies, tensions, and risks," by François Diaz-Maurin @francoisdm.bsky.social, March 7, 2024. ⬇️

Another resource: What would be the purpose of nuclear testing if the US matched what Russia is accused of doing? The @nationalacademies.org panel on the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty outlined what one might do with so-called hydronuclear, extremely low-yieldand very low-yield tests.

TL;DR? Here is a visual summary.

Come for the Money. Stay for the Lies.

The threat of nuclear war never went away. 📰 For the @latimes.com, @atomicbell.bsky.social & Gov. Jerry Brown of @thebulletin.org discuss the "cold, hard truth" of A House of Dynamite and the paramount importance of diplomacy and ongoing public discourse ⬇️ www.latimes.com/opinion/stor...

Have you watched 'A House of Dynamite'? If so, you may have some questions. Here are some Bulletin articles with answers. ⬇️

1/n - Trump says something about nuclear weapons tests...It’s hard to know what he means. As usual, he’s unclear, all over the map, and wrong. 1. The United States has more Nuclear Weapons than any other country. Wrong. Russia has more nuclear weapons than the United States.

"Strategic experts are warning that the Poseidon torpedo would have the potential to devastate a coastal city, cause radioactive floods, and result in millions of deaths."

Russia's Poseidon—also known in the United States as Kanyon, Ocean Multipurpose System, and Status-6—was first revealed by the Russian Navy in 2015 and reportedly tested for the first time in November 2016. The first Poseidon is expected to be deployed by 2027. Russia wants 30 of them.

Catherine Duthu, ce matin, sur @franceculture.fr parle de l'annonce de Putin hier d'un test de drone sous-marin nucléaire russe appelé 'Poseidon' et qui serait capable de délivrer un "tsunami radioactif" sur les côtes américaines. Elle cite le @thebulletin.org. @astriddevillaines.bsky.social

We've seen this already. And no, a US nuclear test is a really bad idea.
