[NYPOST] Elon Musk is working miracles with rockets, but a bunch of Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, apparatchiks want to stop his launches because of... his tweets.The immigrant genius stunned the world Sunday as his SpaceX landed a reusable Starship booster back on the launchpad.
This is a huge tech advance, bringing launch costs down by a factor of ten and advancing space exploration and exploitation by decades.
Meanwhile,
...back at the shootout, Butch shot Ike through the elbow.
Take that, Ike!he yelled......
the California Coastal Commission just rejected the Space Force's request for more frequent SpaceX launches on the Golden State's Central Coast by a vote of six to four, with some of the ''nays'' specifically citing Musk's political speech.
This, by the way, follows the Biden Justice Department's suit against SpaceX for allegedly discriminating against asylum seekers in hiring, as well as the Biden Federal Communications Commission canceling a $900 million contract with Musk's Starlink to provide rural high-speed internet.
(Then again, Musk did it for free, at least temporarily, to help Hurricane Helene victims.)
Ayn Rand must be spinning in her grave... or laughing at how so-called "progressives" spurn actual progress when driven by a truly independent mind.
Meanwhile,
...back at the shootout, Butch shot Ike through the elbow.
Take that, Ike!he yelled......
bet on Musk to beat the Lilliputians: Expect him to launch the first manned mission to Mars from Texas, which has the good sense to welcome him and all his businesses.
