New from me: a short preview for @atlanticcouncil.bsky.social of a broader rethink of US homeland missile defense policy that I expect to publish on in longer form later this year: think Golden Zones, not a Golden Dome www.atlanticcouncil.org/in-depth-res...
For homeland missile defense, think Golden Zones, not a Golden Dome
While the second Trump administration’s instincts on Golden Dome correctly diagnose a more dangerous nuclear environment facing the country, a sized-up, almost-exquisite comprehensive defensive system...

We have long said that an accident anywhere is an accident everywhere. I also think an accident anytime is an accident for all time. We can (and I would say must) get nuclear energy right to address the climate crisis but we have to learn from the past. carnegieendowment.org/emissary/202...
Chernobyl Is Still a Current Event, Forty Years Later
The 1986 incident showed that a nuclear accident anytime is a nuclear accident for all time.

Senator Chris Murphy @carnegieendowment.org: war in Iran “one of the most significant foreign policy mistakes” of our lifetimes despite Iran being a “consistent and confounding” enemy of the United States.

The Artemis II crew splashes down to Earth tonight. But NASA missions aren't the only things getting attention in space. @nktpnd.bsky.social joins Noah Tan to unpack the concept of nuclear weapons in space (and why it's a bad idea).
My latest in @foreignpolicy.com: with a war in the Middle East, the world appears to have missed that North Korea is now officially getting into the space weapons game (with strong incentives to put nukes in space). My analysis: foreignpolicy.com/2026/03/09/n...
North Korea Is Getting Serious About Space Weapons
The new chapter in defense planning seems like a direct response to Trump’s Golden Dome.

The US has become a climate bully. The sabotage of the IMO shipping levy is the most dramatic example. The pressure on Vanuatu to stop its legal efforts is the most recent. My new piece for @foreignpolicy.com foreignpolicy.com/2026/02/18/t...
Trump Is Strong-Arming the World Out of Climate Action
Washington is leveraging its power to intimidate countries that are trying to protect the planet.

It me. I discovered about 10 years ago that when other people said they picture things in their head, they are not being metaphorical. I have never been able to conjure a mental picture of anything, apparently I am on the extreme side. AMA. #aphantasia www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Bluff or Death? How to Assess Nuclear “Threats”

@joereid.bsky.social @chrisvfeil.bsky.social As your resident nuclear policy Gary who has actually "been there," I volunteer as tribute for the now inevitable The House of Dynamite THOB episode.
President Trump's interview on 60 Minutes did very little to clarify his stance on the United States resuming full-scale nuclear tests for the first time in more than three decades. Let's look at some of his statements. 1/11
Resuming U.S. nuclear testing, as President Trump has suggested, “would do more to benefit our adversaries than the United States," says @coreyah.bsky.social on @npr.org. More from Corey on why: www.npr.org/2025/10/30/n...
Trump says he wants to resume nuclear testing. Here's what that would mean
The U.S. has not conducted a nuclear test in over 30 years. Experts say doing one now could make America less safe.

Beijing’s stunning display of nuclear power at its recent military parade is striking. In @economist.com, I explain why China should resist fueling arms races and instead champion a rules-based nuclear order. www.economist.com/by-invitatio...
China should not fuel an arms race, says a close watcher of its nuclear policy
Its interests would be better served if it led on crafting nuclear rules, argues Tong Zhao

Corey Hinderstein@coreyah.bsky.social · last yr.My point is that these are investments that are supposed to protect us on bad day, when things are unstable, and when we need tools and processes urgently. It is shortsighted to think we can protect the US and our allies with offensive weapons alone. 5/5
Don't forget that foundational investments in the #NNSA's nonproliferation capabilities mean we have off-the-shelf tools for out-of-the-ordinary situations. With at least 400 kgs of enriched uranium in the wind, what would a regime collapse mean for global security? 1/5
Great discussion @pranayrvaddi.bsky.social and @ebrewer.bsky.social. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
Pranay Vaddi@pranayrvaddi.bsky.social · last yr.I spoke with NTI's Eric Brewer and Carnegie's Corey Hinderstein about military action against Iran's nuclear sites, the future of the nuclear program, and broader nonproliferation implications of last week's events. Link below:

I’m very worried about the plan for NNSA’s nonpro funding and share why here. Bad for security and bad for deterrence!
Carnegie Endowment @carnegieendowment.org · last yr.Slashing nuclear nonproliferation funding, as the Trump administration has requested, would be, for the U.S., “a recipe for national security failure.” @coreyah.bsky.social on why, in her latest for Emissary: carnegieendowment.org/emissary/202...
Joe is a great communicator, so this is a real compliment.
Joe Cirincione@joecirin.bsky.social · last yr.I just watched @coreyah.bsky.social deliver a brilliant interview on @msnbc.com. Clear, knowledgeable, balanced. She combines deep knowledge of nuclear weapons technology with critical strategic thinking. She should be a booker’s go-to guest.
It will be very interesting to see how Russia engages with Iran in light of their January 2025 Treaty on Comprehensive Strategic Partnership. I can’t imagine Putin would be happy about any requests that would undermine military objectives in Ukraine.
Waking in Europe to the news from the Middle East. The attack by Israel on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure seems as inevitable as it was avoidable.
