@elonmusk, you lost me when you sidled up to Trump. No one voted for you. Your Tesla stock price is tanking and your rockets blow up. Please pay more attention to your businesses.
There is a good chance of achieving full reusability of Starship this year.
Full and immediate reflight of Starship, along with orbital refilling, probably happens next year.
This is the fundamental breakthrough needed to make life multiplanetary.
JD/Trump are thugs. And this ambush of Zelensky at the White House will do deep damage to Ukraine, to our allies and to the U.S.
Openly ridiculing and demeaning a man who has kept his country alive for three years against all the odds is a national embarrassment and runs counter to our own security interests. But they could care less that Ukraine was invaded by Russia — the second biggest military power on the planet — led by a ruthless dictator willing to sacrifice soldiers and civilians by the hundreds of thousands. Trump and JD trying to look tough in front of the cameras even though it’s Zelensky who is the strongest one in the room. The guy who was supposed to lose to Russia in a matter of hours or days is still there, fighting. As are the brave Ukrainian soldiers on the front line.
We help Ukraine because it’s the right thing to do for a fellow democracy that is suffering a brutal invasion AND because if Ukraine were to fall, the next fight would be on the front lines of our NATO allies and our military would be treaty-bound to join the war. In other words, Ukraine is shouldering the total cost in terms of the fighting, the lives forever damaged and the lives lost so that we and our European allies don’t have to.
Trump and Vance are not only abandoning Ukraine. They are abandoning the security of our country. Today they made it much more likely that our service members will be fighting again in Europe, 80 years after countless brave Americans helped liberate the continent and make it safe for democracy.
Shameful.
Not enough people are talking about this absolutely ridiculous moment when Brian Glenn (who is reportedly dating Marjorie Taylor Greene) asked Zelensky, “Why don’t you wear a suit?!? Do you own a suit?”
Absolutely pathetic and embarrassing.
I had a student ask me this week what a legacy is. I really enjoyed the question and did my best to explain it. This sums up what I said: A legacy is when you make a mark on the world that lives forever and can never be erased. I shared a few examples including ripples of kindness that one person starts that can live forever. I think about this a lot and I believe it helps me to remember who I am and never forget what really matters in life. ♥️#StarfishClub

JANET MILLS: Yeah I'm here
TRUMP: Are you not gonna comply?
JM: I'm going to comply with state and federal law
T: You better do it bc you're not gonna get any federal funding at all
JM: See you in court
T: Enjoy your life after governor because I don't think you'll be in elected politics
