1A - Scientific Method: Questioning Quantum Mechanics

Unless you're a physicist, you've probably only encountered quantum mechanics on TV.

And even when it was explained, you might've still been a little confused.

The field of quantum mechanics was created a century ago. Today, scientists are using it to create methods of communication that can't be hacked, higher quality digital images, and to develop medications.

But many of us don't even understand what quantum mechanics is — or how it's deepening our understanding of the universe.

For today's installment of our series, "The Scientific Method," we answer your quantum-related questions.

Plus, Brenda Wineapple, author of Keeping the Faith: How American Democracy Survives Scandals, Scoundrels, and Cynics, joins to discuss a century-old “trial of the century” and its relevance to today’s politics.

Meanwhile, the U.S. seems to continue to align itself with Russia.

President Trump is upending the U.S.-led order that has dominated global politics for the better part of a century. What does that mean for Ukraine – and for America?

The Daily Signal - Victor Davis Hanson: Zelenskyy Bites the Hand That Feeds Him Billions of Dollars

Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy strolled into the White House using the same strategy he employed with President Joe Biden, which turned out to be his fatal flaw argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

“ I think Mr. Zelenskyy, in some ways, is a sympathetic character. He needs American weapons, but he kept arguing and arguing, and interrupting the president of the United States, who kept trying to remind him that without American weapons—and the number is disputed because it includes weaponry, economic assistance, and other types of U.S. aid.

“ Without the United States, he would be nowhere. Europe talks a great game. All of Europe together, all 28, 29 nations of the EU, 32 nations of NATO have given less than the United States alone. And they will not come to his aid.

“ He was flown in on a U.S. military jet. He met Democratic politicians. He met union workers in a munitions factory and basically said to them, "These jobs are essential to us." Subtext: "You wouldn't want to lose your jobs by voting for Donald Trump, who might cut off aid." That was a terrible mistake.
