It is worth remembering that there are no constitutional provisions regarding presidential primaries and very few details about the election of the president itself. AdvertisementWhat were early presidential elections like? In the wake of the violence, Democrats launched a massive overhaul of their presidential primary process. According to some officials who worked on the commission, their changes had the unintended effect of popularizing state presidential primary elections. In short, party officials’ hands are initially tied, even if they want to cast the deciding votes.

In 2020, Neuralink showed off one of its chips embedded in a pig named Gertrude. The Neuralink device in Gertrude's brain transmitted live data during the demo as she snuffled around. Musk said the pig had been living with the chip embedded in her skull for two months. "This is solid engineering, but mediocre neuroscience," he said. Jackson told Insider following the 2020 presentation that the wireless relay from the Neuralink chip could potentially have a big impact on the welfare of animal test subjects in science, as most neural interfaces currently in use on test animals involve wires poking out through the skin.

But ultimately, it became a motif that runs the whole way through the film. And I think, to some degree, applying the pressure to Cillian as Oppenheimer that this hearing was applying. Robert Downey Jr. as Lewis Strauss being shot on IMAX black-and-white film. And he’s here talking to Alden Ehrenreich who is absolutely indicative of the incredible ensemble that our casting director John Papsidera put together. And we try to give that as much visibility, grandeur, and glamour to contrast with the security hearing that’s so claustrophobic.

Impossible is often just a starting point on a Christopher Nolan film and “Oppenheimer,”about the father of the atomic bomb, was no exception. She told them at the time that if there were ever a zombie apocalypse, they were the people she’d want to be with. “Every day there’s something that happens and you have to figure out a way out of it. It was the perfect claustrophobic, unglamourous and period-specific setting for a humiliating ordeal designed to make Oppenheimer feel small. When he glued it all together, it sounded perfect — but perfect felt wrong.

Historically, political realignment has occurred when groups of voters change their affiliation to a new political party or candidate, especially around presidential and midterm elections. Yet the period between 1852 and 1860 is crucial here, for it saw the last time a major political party collapsed (the Whig Party in 1854) and the dissolution of another political party (the Democratic Party in 1860). The 1924 Democratic Party famously went through 103 ballots before agreeing on a compromise candidate, John W. Davis of West Virginia. Of course, party realignment is a tricky thing since we only come to know that it has happened in hindsight. A failure to reach a majority consensus signals the doom of an American political party.

(Minerva, $18.99, ages 4 to 8.) THE WALKING SCHOOL BUS, by Aaron Friedland and Ndileka Mandela. Interviews Friedland conducted with children in rural Africa and India inspired this moving tale of two enterprising siblings determined to find a safe way to get to school. A beguiling, anxious ragamuffin whose parents’ nomadic lifestyle lands her at a school where everyone else speaks French learns that imagination can heal. At recess she draws a “giant magic hopscotch,” and the hopscotch draws new friends.

Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer" is about the Manhattan Project, and features an atomic bomb test. By using chemicals and layering clips while editing, they made a realistic atomic explosion. For Christopher Nolan's latest blockbuster, which follows the development and aftermath of the atomic bomb by following its creator, Robert J. Oppenheimer, Nolan chose not to use computer-generated imagery, or CGI. Cillian Murphy looks out the window at the simulated Trinity test while playing the titular role in Oppenheimer. A comparison between the prop bomb used in filming Oppenheimer [top] and the historic photo of the bomb used in the Trinity test [bottom].

Over the next two centuries, the role gained significant power within the federal government. In 1828, President Andrew Jackson made it part of the Cabinet, placing the role in line for succession.

This continued until President Richard Nixon halted such efforts in 1969.
The Higgins boat is one of the iconic vessels of World War II. Andrew Higgins, center, developed several kinds of landing craft that were invaluable during World War II. His landing craft were used in every major amphibious assault of World War II, from the shores of Europe to the Pacific islands. National World War II MuseumBorn in Nebraska in 1886, Higgins ran newspaper routes and started a lawn-mowing company as a child. In one instance, Navy officials expressed interest in seeing a design for a new 56-foot tank landing craft three days before a scheduled visit to see another type of landing craft.
CNN —Director Christopher Nolan created the look of a nuclear explosion for “Oppenheimer” without using CGI. Nolan explained in a new interview with Total Film how he recreated the devastation of the first atomic bomb. “I think recreating the Trinity test without the use of computer graphics was a huge challenge to take on,” he told the outlet. He calls “Oppenheimer” a challenge but had help from an “extraordinary” crew. “There were big, logistical challenges, big practical challenges.
Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew proposed to place a woman on the $10 bill in 2015, with Alexander Hamilton taking a diminished role. That change never went into place. The musical “Hamilton” opened on Broadway that year, which renewed the first Treasury secretary’s place in popular culture. Ms. Yellen said the Treasury plans to design a $20 bill that replaces former President Andrew Jackson with a portrait of Harriet Tubman. T.J. Kirkpatrick/Getty
"This morning I called John Fetterman and congratulated him," Dr. Mehmet Oz said in a Wednesday statement announcing his concession. Oz was just one of the hundreds of pro-Trump candidates that raised doubts about the 2020 election. Legally speaking, concessions hold no weight, as elections are not over until results have been canvassed and certified which can take weeks. Trump's refusal to concede the 2020 presidential election reminded Americans that admitting defeat is not just a sign of basic grace and decency. It is worth noting that before Trump candidates from both parties readily conceded races.
He likely has encouraged future insurrections by vowing to pardon the rioters who sacked the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. During Tyler’s presidency, the Whigs actually expelled him from the party when he violated Whig principles. Tyler, like Trump, was a somewhat unexpected president who didn’t originally belong to the party that elected him. But Harrison died one month after his inauguration, making Tyler the first vice president to succeed to the presidency. Like Trump, Tyler had little respect for the party establishment that put him in power.
