All The News That Fits

This is what happens to your launchpad when you think it would be funny to launch to the world's largest rocket on 4/20, instead of when it's ready.

It will probably be at least a year before the FAA will approve another Starship launch. pic.twitter.com/tXytW309a6

And because of this decision, the launchpad was blasted apart and debris slammed into the engines at the bottom of the booster, damaging them.

Ultimately resulting in the spectacular cartwheels and explosion that we saw just moments later.

Oops. The simple fact is, we know how to do this. Elmo is standing on the shoulders of giants. And still he falls off. 🤔

Trying to explain how everything Elon does is too genius for us mere mortals to understand feels a lot like those explanations of how Trump's posts are intentionally typo-laden grammartastrophes.

Like someone said (on Twitter). His cars blow up, his rockets explode, and he blew up Twitter. Gotta give him credit: he’s consistent.

AGAIN: A couple in Broward County said they were shot at after they went to the wrong address to deliver Instacart groceries. The couple said police told them there would be no repercussions for the shooter because no Florida laws were broken. #flapol https://t.co/9tmQcVaypn

Remind me to stay the hell outta Florida.

Florida police say the shooter was “justified” in opening fire on these teens. https://t.co/NZ8RMtq4vr

Waiting for DeSantis to say that’s not what the law says, and this is just fake news. Also not reassured that the FL legislature is tired of DeSantis. They aren’t tired of these laws. Even the guy who shot the cheerleaders in Elgin was arrested.

Messiah complex.

I wasn’t the only one…

Has there ever been a clearer example of the "GOP has trained us to take their legislative terrorism as a given" mentality so clear in so much MSM reporting? https://t.co/DxfjvuVhIE pic.twitter.com/2LcXQtblBE

The strangest thing is because Trump’s cult hold is still so tight, political reporters will write about him as if he hasn’t been just posting crazy guilty man rants for months.

— Schooley ♟️ (@Rschooley) April 22, 2023

And we’re going to treat him like a legitimate candidate, not a soon to be felon that’s running as a Hail Mary to stay out of prison.

Hell, the press still has trouble calling Trump a liar.

Despite being president, a three-time candidate and spending years developing relationships with politicians, Trump is still seen by a number of voters as a non-politician and graded on a curve. His rivals are held to a typical pol standard https://t.co/lCNUYMEzJo

— Maggie Haberman (@maggieNYT) April 22, 2023

I think that’s true within the GOP (and the political press). Those are both numerically minority groups. Outside of them, Trump is considered beneath other politicians. And the curve he’s graded on goes distinctly downward.

So far only Christie, who is considering a candidacy, has started making the policy case against Trump, from the perspective that he failed to get done what he said he would https://t.co/lCNUYMEzJo

— Maggie Haberman (@maggieNYT) April 22, 2023

Christie has failed to invent a Time Machine that will return him to his salad days before “Bridgegate.” And he’s bored with his ABC Sunday morning gig. So he wants to turn the clock back; with his mouth.

The crazies don’t give a shit about policy, and believe Trump when he says he built the wall and solved all our national problems. Christie is talking to the political press again. They’ve always been his only audience.

They don’t elect anybody. They just facilitate better liars than Christie.

Lagniappe: “The policy case against Trump.”

I agree with all of the criticisms of this ad for all of the reasons listed. Funny thing is, if you read the critiques from MAGA, they’re all about him lying about not shutting down, "forcing" kids to mask and having his own private Dr. Fauci to push vaccines. Warped!!

Democrats don’t care; MAGA ain’t listening.
