Cullen2, Justin T. Pickett3 , Cheryl Lero Jonson4, Murat Haner5, and Melissa M. Sloan5 Abstract Purpose: Over the past several months, the coronavirus has infected more than six million Americans and killed nearly 200,000. Governors have issued stay-at-home orders, and prosecutors have filed criminal charges against individuals for defying those orders. And yet many Americans have still refused to keep their distance from their fellow citizens, even if they had symptoms of infection. The authors explore the underlying causes for those who intend to defy these norms. Methods: Using national-level data from a March 2020 survey of 989 Americans, the authors explore intentions to defy social distancing norms by testing an interactionist theory of foundation-based moral behavior in combination with faith in President Trump during the coronavirus pandemic. The analysis controls for a range of variables, including measures of low self-control and deterrence. Results: Low self-control is the strongest predictor of defiance intentions. Consistent with interactionist theory, defiance intentions are significantly higher for those holding specific faith in Trump and those endorsing binding foundations. Furthermore, the interaction of these two variables is significant and in the predicted direction. The results hold for two different measures of faith in Trump.

Short of knowing any of the stories or products of a brand, being talked about in whatever fashion|raw fame|is, as Oscar Wilde would have it, better than not being talked about at all. Here, we measure, examine, and contrast the day-to-day raw fame dynamics on Twitter for US Presidents and major US Presidential candidates from 2008 to 2020: Barack Obama, John McCain, Mitt Romney, Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, and Joe Biden. We assign \lexical fame" to be the number and (Zipfian) rank of the (lowercased) mentions made for each individual across all languages. We show that all five political figures have at some point reached extraordinary volume levels of what we define to be \lexical ultrafame": An overall rank of approximately 300 or less which is largely the realm of function words and demarcated by the highly stable rank of `god'.

  • Shackled Speech: How President Trump's
    LCB_23_1_Article_4_Day (Do Not Delete) 4/1/2019 4:58 PM SHACKLED SPEECH: HOW PRESIDENT TRUMP’S TREATMENT OF THE PRESS AND THE CITIZEN-CRITIC UNDERMINES THE CENTRAL MEANING OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT by Terri R. Day and Danielle Weatherby Just recently, the Southern District of New York in Knight First Amend- ment, Inc. v. Trump applied existing First Amendment doctrine to Presi- dent Trump’s @realDonaldTrump Twitter account in considering whether he violated the First Amendment when he blocked citizens from accessing his tweets. After concluding that the interactive space associated with each of the President’s tweets is a designated public forum, the District Court held that President Trump’s act of blocking users who criticize him constituted view- point-based discrimination, which violates the First Amendment. This Arti- cle is one of the first of its kind to analyze the question considered by the Knight First Amendment court and to disentangle the thorny intersection be- tween the government speech doctrine and the public forum doctrine. Social media plays a significant role in how Americans engage in public dis- course. Town hall meetings on matters of public concern have moved from the physical spaces of streets, parks, and the brick and mortar seats of gov- ernment to the virtual world. At no time was the influence of social media more present than during the 2016 presidential primary. From his candida- cy to the present, President Trump has used Twitter as his primary mode of communicating with the American people, foreign leaders, and the media. Today, the President’s Twitter account has a world-wide following.

NASA’s Commercial Crew Program is delivering on its goal of safe, reliable, and cost-effective human transportation to and from the International Space Station from the United States through a partnership with American private industry. A new generation of spacecraft and launch systems capable of carrying astronauts to low-Earth orbit and the International Space Station provides expanded utility, additional research time, and broader opportunities for discovery on the orbiting laboratory. The station is a critical testbed for NASA to understand and overcome the challenges of long- duration spaceflight. As commercial companies focus on providing human transportation services to and from low-Earth orbit, NASA is freed up to focus on building spacecraft and rockets for deep space missions. With the ability to purchase astronaut transportation from Boeing and SpaceX as a service on a fixed-price contract, NASA can use resources to put the first woman and the first person of color on the Moon as a part of our Artemis missions in preparation for human missions to Mars.

Thursday’s launch was the first by a Proton rocket since June 9, 2016, when the Intelsat 31/DLA-2 communications satellite launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome. Russian officials grounded the Proton to study an upper stage engine problem, then the launcher’s return to service was delayed several more months due to a recall of Russian rocket engines found to have defects.
