Chief Justice John Roberts,
who has used his position to do Trump a lot of favors,
noted that Trump’s use of IEEPA to claim an unlimited tariff authority ran up against the separation of powers.
Tariffs are “taxes on Americans, and that has always been the core power of Congress,” he said.
Justice Neil Gorsuch, likewise a reliable pro-Trump vote, worried that gifting Trump a vast power to impose tariffs would be a “one-way ratchet toward the gradual but continual ac…

On tariffs, the Supreme Court's GOP justices appear ready to save Trump from himself
The administration's economic recklessness threatens Republicans' grip on power.

In the midst of the SCOTUS tariff case, Neil Gorsuch asked if Congress could just hand off any and all power to the president.
It seems like we have 5 to 6 votes against an Enabling Act.

NaviGait: Navigating Dynamically Feasible Gait Libraries using Deep Reinforcement Learning
Reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a powerful method to learn robust control policies for bipedal locomotion. Yet, it can be difficult to tune desired robot behaviors due to unintuitive and complex reward design. In comparison, offline trajectory optimization methods, like Hybrid Zero Dynamics, offer more tuneable, interpretable, and mathematically grounded motion plans for high-dimensional legged systems. However, these methods often remain brittle to real-world disturbances like exter…

Near the Runaway: The Climate and Habitability of Teegarden's Star b
Teegarden's Star b, a nearby terrestrial world receiving an Earth-like instellation, is a prime candidate for next-generation observatories targeting temperate exoplanets in their habitable zones. We employ a suite of three-dimensional global climate model (GCM) simulations to (1) map the inner boundary of the habitable zone of Teegarden's Star b and (2) characterize its surface climate under the assumption of an Earth-analog atmosphere. Our simulations show that, with its most recently estimat…
