But SpaceX has a habit of reinventing the wheel, so maybe this is just them using some product set from this, to make their version of something that already exists.

LUTNICK: It is outrageous that Canada will not put US spirits on the shelf. It is insulting and disrespectful to America

They paused Oversight Committee hearings the minute we started getting answers about the Epstein files.

Now it’s “roundtables”: no rules, no oaths, no subpoenas.

You do the math. Because the moment accountability shows up, they shut it down. The survivors deserve better.

What cracks me up about so many evangelicals is, they’re the evil they’re looking for.

Just an OUNCE of self-reflection, and they’d see they aren’t on Team Jesus.

The new acting Secretary of the Navy, Hung Cao, who is replacing John Pelan, is a theocratic loony who thinks California is infested with witches. The only thing the Trump administration shows *any* aptitude for is filling its job openings with unqualified kooks.

You put the lime in the coconut…

I just want to point out it's not illegal or unethical for witches to take over California towns

Former congressman Devin Nunes departs as CEO of Trump media company The onetime lawmaker is leaving Trump Media & Technology, which operates the social media platform Truth Social.

In 2021, Trump Media (Truth Social) told investors that by 2026 they could have 81 million users and $3.6 billion in revenue.

Instead:

2023: lost $58m

2024: lost $400m

2025: lost $712m

Who knows maybe this will be the year they turn it around! lololol

Can we have a moment of your time?

 ‘Minute’ comes from the Late Latin ‘minuta,’ referring to 1/60 of a unit, such as an hour.

 ‘Second’ comes from the Medieval Latin ‘secunda,’ short for ‘secunda minuta,’ literally “second minute” (1/60 of a minute).

She’s trying, but sweet baby Jesus, SHE SHOULDN’T HAVE TO ASK.

A *real* President would be reaching out to OFFER as much as is needed to get people back on their feet again, in a STANDARD Disaster Recovery Response Plan.

But then, this motherfucker didn’t have one for Covid, either.

They’re evil.

Full stop.

I’ve stopped looking for another reason for this shit.

These are just BAD PEOPLE.

There is no other plausible excuse at this point. They’ve lost their way as humans.

Ring a little bell at a hole in the wall? Get a nice glass of vino.

Idiotic. If anything, given our nation’s dreadful science scores, we should increase and expand it into STEAM funding, but just to make more well-rounded kids.

One mission I contributed to cut entirely, one budget reduced to ridiculous levels, one increased. They all should have just proceeded as is..

Heck NONE of this should be cut, because WE DON’T HAVE TO.

This isn’t “wasteful spending.”

ALL of NASA has massively high ROI.
