Space twitter doesn’t understand that performance at the job is not a barometer for being successful in this admin. It’s all about going on TV and praising trump, that’s it, that makes you good at your job.

a tyrant is ignoring the constitution, firing live artillery at americans, invading our cities, and tearing down the white house to build himself a palace

our institutions won't react because they're lost in a digital dreamstate, unable to decide what is true because of social media poisoning

They are clearly trying to instigate and attack on the protest. Will end up being our reichstag fire
Sen. Roger Marshall: "October 18 is when the protest gets here. This will be a Soros paid-for protest for his professional protesters. The agitators show up. We'll have to get the National Guard out. Hopefully it will be peaceful. I doubt it."

Omg he said something that wasn’t horrific or stupid af. Granted defending NATO is what we signed up for and is the bare minimum answer
Q: If Russia and Vladimir Putin attacks Finland, would you defend Finland?

TRUMP: Yes I would. They're a member of NATO.

Yep we are doing norms and traditions, they are doing idgaf about rules, morales, or shame
A judge has recused from hearing the Portland troops case because his wife is a Democratic Congresswoman -- even though it is not "required under either federal law or the [judicial] Code of Conduct." The new judge was appointed by Trump.

We have a legal system with two different sets of rules.

Ooooof really bad timing after going public, after a failure. Hope they bounce back quickly but they also have Northrop looming over them expecting rockets to be delivered for them
Just as Firefly was preparing for the return to flight following the FLTA006 failure, the first stage for FLTA007 was lost in an anomaly on the test stand, resulting in a huge fireball. Really unfortunate to see, and hopefully they can recover quickly.

Really cool how it’s like a reality show “who are we going to harass and try to prosecute by abusing government power next? Find out after the break!”
Trump on who he wants investigated: "Soros is a name certainly that I keep hearing. I don't know. I hear a lot of different names. I hear names of some pretty rich people that are radical left people. Maybe I hear about a guy named Reid Hoffman."

After the successful launch of KA-03 yesterday, ULA confirmed that their next launch will be the ViaSat-3 F2 mission on another Atlas V 551.

ULA's next Project Kuiper launch is expected to be the KV-01 mission on Vulcan, which is set to launch before the end of the year.

Pretty cool we have a bunch of high tech space robots that can observe, measure, and track our interstellar visitor
All eyes on comet #3I/ATLAS ☄️

Hubble & Webb have already observed this comet coming from outside our Solar System.

Next up, our Mars Express, ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter and Juice missions will turn their eyes towards it.
