Security Concerns & Relocation of Officials - Several senior Trump administration officials, including Steven Miller and Christine Gnome, have moved to military bases in the Washington area due to security concerns and protests [1][2][3][4] - The relocation is partly attributed to increased security precautions following the Charlie Kirk assassination attempt in September [2][3] - Protests outside officials' homes, including harassment and the distribution of flyers with addresses, contributed to the decision to move [3][7][8] - There's a concern that living on military bases may shield officials from the "vibe" and desires of the general public [6][7] Nuclear Weapons Testing - The president expressed a desire to resume nuclear weapons testing [10] - Experts argue that resuming nuclear testing is unnecessary, as the US already possesses a comprehensive database of tests and advanced simulation capabilities [11][15] - Restarting testing could encourage other countries, like Russia and China, to resume their own testing, potentially undermining global non-proliferation efforts [12] - The US already conducts tests on nuclear weapon systems and components through simulations and non-explosive tests [13][14][15]
