Better; tell me again how solvent social security is with the lifetime of $$$ I’ve given away to this BS racket and then let’s talk about America 1st.
Full quote from McCollum: “Some of them took shocking, shocking essentially pay cuts to come here, to represent Iowa and to lay a foundation. And I don't think people realize that. That team at Drake that we had was 31 wins. From a portal standpoint, that's a very expensive team. And they chose to believe in us, to believe in Iowa. I'm not sure that even from an external standpoint, fans quite can even understand why those kids would do that? You know, why Bennett Stirtz and Tavion Banks … would choose to come here when they had millions of other options and probably more money. But they chose to build Iowa and build this foundation for myself, for my team, for the players, and for the state of Iowa and the community. I really want to make sure that they're appreciated, and hope that people understand how much they actually have given, legitimately given, to be a part of this. Given BACK to be a part of this. … That’s a big deal. I think in years coming, we'll realize how big of a deal that is.”
Polling places just turned into a flashpoint in DHS funding talks.
Democrats proposed labeling them “sensitive locations,” which would limit ICE enforcement there. Same category as schools and churches.
Republicans pushed back: if voting is for citizens only, enforcement shouldn’t disappear where ballots are cast.
That’s the fault line — where access policy meets enforcement policy.
Now lawmakers have to draw clear rules so elections stay secure, consistent, and trusted. Confidence in the system comes from transparency and equal enforcement.
For those unaware, SpaceX has already shifted focus to building a self-growing city on the Moon, as we can potentially achieve that in less than 10 years, whereas Mars would take 20+ years.
The mission of SpaceX remains the same: extend consciousness and life as we know it to the stars.
It is only possible to travel to Mars when the planets align every 26 months (six month trip time), whereas we can launch to the Moon every 10 days (2 day trip time). This means we can iterate much faster to complete a Moon city than a Mars city.
That said, SpaceX will also strive to build a Mars city and begin doing so in about 5 to 7 years, but the overriding priority is securing the future of civilization and the Moon is faster.
Ben McCollum was born in Iowa City, and he grew up an Iowa fan.

Scott Jennings GOES OFF on Billie Eilish for pushing the “stolen land” narrative at the Grammys:
“Eilish lives in a $14 million mansion in L.A., on property that was once inhabited by the Tongva tribe — She hasn’t taken any steps to return her mansion.”
