@YoAdrienne1968 I spent 8 years hating Bill Clinton, only to finally conclude it was a waste of my mental energy. I did not hate Obama, just what he did to ruin our politics.

For those who think Obama is living rent free in my brain, I say.. no he is not. He lives there at great cost because he single-handedly tried to destroy our country. I will never forget or forgive.

@shanaka86 Truly astonishing what Elon has created.

The Q4 2025 Rocket Report dropped yesterday and the number that should terrify every government on Earth is not the one going viral. SpaceX launched 1,159 of the 1,404 spacecraft put into orbit worldwide in Q4 2025. That is 83% of all spacecraft launched by every nation and company on the planet combined. In the United States the number is 97%. China managed 8%. Russia 4%. All of Europe, the continent that built Ariane, managed 0.2%. One private company now commands greater orbital access than any sovereign power in human history, including the Soviet Union at the peak of the Space Race. And on March 30, booster B1067 flew for the 34th time. The entire Space Shuttle program flew 135 missions across five orbiters over 30 years. One Falcon 9 first stage has now achieved one quarter of that total in four years of service. The Shuttle cost $1.5 billion per mission. Falcon 9 costs $67 million, with total fuel running $150,000. That is not a cost reduction. That is a change in the physical nature of what orbital access means. Now layer what happened in the nine days before that flight. March 21: Terafab breaks ground in Austin. One terawatt per year of AI compute. Logic, memory, and advanced packaging in a single building with a recursive mask-fab-test loop that exists nowhere else. Eighty percent of output allocated to space. March 22: First renders of the 100-kilowatt AI satellite with solar arrays and radiators, scaling to megawatt. D3 chips designed to run hotter in vacuum where radiative cooling is free. March 30: 148 satellites deployed in under 24 hours across two missions. Transporter-16 carried 119 payloads from dozens of operators. Starlink 10-44 added 29 more. The booster that flew its 34th mission landed on a droneship 8.5 minutes after liftoff, its 575th successful recovery for the company. Nobody is reading these events as a single sequence because no analytical framework exists for what is forming. This is not a space company. It is not a car company. It is not a chip company. It is not an AI company. It is the first vertically integrated civilization-scale stack in human history. One entity now controls fabrication of silicon, launch of mass to orbit, a constellation of 10,139 satellites with autonomous AI collision avoidance executing 300,000 maneuvers per year, the world’s largest battery storage deployment, the only humanoid robot in mass production, and the AI training infrastructure running on 200,000 GPUs scaling to 1.5 million. From atoms to orbit to intelligence under one roof. The Soviet Union at its most powerful operated rockets and satellites. TSMC fabricates chips. Google runs AI. Tesla builds cars and batteries. No entity before this moment has controlled the complete vertical from raw silicon through fabrication through launch through orbital infrastructure through energy through robotics through artificial intelligence simultaneously. And here is the fact that should stop every analyst, every fund manager, and every head of state cold. The fuel cost to maintain this dominance is $150,000 per launch. One hundred and fifty thousand dollars. That is less than a house in most American cities. The propellant bill for the vehicle that delivers 97% of American orbital access costs less than a mid-range Tesla. The bottleneck was never technology. It was never physics. It was never fuel. It was imagination. And one man just announced that 80% of his chip factory’s output is going to space because Earth cannot power what he intends to build. The Q4 Rocket Report is not a market share chart. It is a civilizational audit. And the audit says one company is building the infrastructure for a species-level transition while every government and competitor on Earth is still filing quarterly earnings.

@Geniustechw Sick in the head. Mental institution?

Climate activists decide that the best way to "save the planet" is to destroy Ferraris at a car show. 🤡 What should be the appropriate punishment? 🤔

@WesleyHuntTX The people doing this can’t look at her image because they know they are complicit. In that they support policies that will result in this happening again.

They’ll let a repeat offender rack up 14 arrests, walk free, and take an innocent life. But a mural honoring a 23-year-old victim? That’s what they call “too political.” Let that sink in. Iryna Zarutska was brutally murdered because soft-on-crime policies put a career criminal back on the street. And now, instead of standing with her family, the same crowd tears down her memorial to avoid accountability. This is the hypocrisy. They won’t remove the policies that failed her. They remove the reminder of the life that was lost. They don’t want justice. They want silence. Americans deserve leaders who protect the innocent, not excuse the guilty.

@mattvanswol @BernieSanders Too complicated for Bernie to understand.

This is so stupid. Bernie wants to tax what you OWN every single year. Not what you earn. What you own. Say you're a farmer. Your land is worth $2 million. But farming had a bad year and you only made $80,000. Bernie wants 5% of $2 million. That's $100,000. ..but you only made $80,000. You now owe more in taxes than you made... So you sell the farm to pay for the taxes. That's the wealth tax. Also, most of billionaires "wealth" is stock in companies they built. If Elon Musk owes $5 billion in wealth taxes, he doesn't write a check. He sells his Tesla shares. The stock drops. Your 401k ALSO DROPS. It's an insanely stupid idea and everyone but Bernie knows it.

Ok, Jamie: Let me clear things up for you. If my 5% wealth tax on billionaires was enacted you’d owe $135 million more in taxes & a family of 4 making $150,000 or less would receive a $12,000 payment. Oh, and you’d still be worth more than $2.5 billion. Seems pretty fair to me.

@CynicalPublius Agree. WIRED used to be very good, but that was a long time ago. The Left wrecks everything.

Oh PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE yes. WIRED was once the definitive soothsayer of technology culture. It was my favorite magazine. Now it's just The Atlantic for leftwing nerds. PLEASE rescue WIRED.

@AAbsaroka @Notwokenow I have another suggestion. After kicking the UN out of the USA, sell the property to the Trump organization so they can put a big TRUMP sign at the top.

@Notwokenow Two things I would be okay with... Bulldozing the U.N. into the Hudson River & making them build it in Europe. Leave NATO, like we should have when the Soviet Union collapsed.

What good has NATO or the UN done in the world the last 20 years? And wealth redistribution doesn’t count. 😳

@MichelleMaxwell I think Trump is waiting, working on other important matters and getting things done. Once he starts moving on the deep state, the push back will be ferocious and nothing else will get done in that environment. I bet he has people working on the plan right now.

Amazing how many people on the Right thought it was going to be easy to take back control of our country from the Deep State. Did you honestly think it was going to take place in a time frame like a movie?

Presenting what I call Fascism for Dummies h/t @nubbynikki

@NekKamina @_InfoGram_ Dear IMakeMoney: Either Murphy is paying you or you are not very smart. I think the latter. Cuz he really needs smarter people to help him out.

@TheTJRay @_InfoGram_ Trump's Asslicker Syndrome: Can not address the argument directly, only does ad-hominem as they are unable to deal with the cognitive dissonance over the fact that their Pdfile President f'ed over the middle class with inflation, and is sacrificing soldiers for nothing.

BREAKING🚨: This was EPIC 🔥 🇺🇸Trump: We need $2 billion a day to reopen the Strait of Hormuz 🇺🇸US Senator: But the SOH was already open before the war? So what was the point of whole war? You have created a Global Crisis OUT OF NOTHING” 🔥🔥 BRUTAL REALITY CHECK⚡️🗿

@vanc53151 @_InfoGram_ What does your comment even mean? Weird.

@TheTJRay @_InfoGram_ Would that be the same cancer that your daddy stole funding from?

@realsashastone They are stupid. What do they think is going to happen if the west lets Iran take over the Middle East? Answer: they don’t know cuz they have not thought that far ahead.

What Trump needed was for Iran to feel scared shitless. What he got: stupid No Kings protests and a huge loud army of podcasters going to war ON HIM. Why would Iran feel scared shitless if Trump has so many discrediting him in his own country?

@HazelMoore32 I call BS. I think Trump is holding her back so as to not interfere with his other priorities. After this year, it will be difficult for Trump to move on other things. Then he can unleash the lawyers.

🚨BREAKING:🚨 President Trump has reportedly grown FED UP with Attorney General Pam Bondi and her lack of prosecutions of members of The Deep State and is said to be ON THE VERGE OF REPLACING HER. Rumored potential replacements topping the list include Sidney Powell, who EXPOSED THE MASSIVE FRAUD IN THE STOLEN 2020 ELECTION. Do YOU support FIRING Pam Blondie and nominating American hero Sidney Powell to be the next Attorney General of The United States?📢🔥🇺🇸

@realsashastone Truth. But Trump loves this country and has committed his remaining golden years to securing it for all Americans’ future. I believe him to be the best president in my lifetime and I am 66.

Imagine being under pressure to end a 47-year regime in Iran while also trying to keep your head above water, knowing you'll be impeached a third time if Democrats take Congress. Living with that kind of pressure ...

@funder You are a sad example of a man. I bet you are paid by some entity that obtained federal funds. Am I right?

A federal judge just ruled that videos of DOGE staffers must stay up — and they are devastating. Under oath, they couldn't define DEI. They admitted they never reduced the deficit. And they wiped out $100 million in humanities grants — including a Holocaust documentary — using ChatGPT. The regime tried to bury this. It didn't work. dworkinsubstack.com/p/shut-it-down…

OMG! We have an agency called the Government Accountability Office. They are supposed to be auditing these programs. Where are they? What are they doing?

@GuntherEagleman @nickisnest Us vs Them. The definitions of these terms change for convenience.

🚨 NYC Mayor just announced FREE CHILDCARE for government workers “We never want city workers to have to choose between a job they love and raising their kids in the city they call home.” Taxpayers getting fcked, so city bureaucrats get free babysitting

@RedWaveCrewHP @RealAshlar Oops! No true statement! The rest of the post is correct. 😂

@RedWaveCrewHP @RealAshlar True statement. Unfair to Michelle to compare her to our beautiful and poised First Lady.

Melania will never compare to the class and compassion that Michelle Obama brought to America. Agree or Disagree? 👍👎

It is a Beautiful country and the people are very nice. Very few speak English, however. I spent a week there on business quite a while ago, and I still have very fond memories of the experience. I grew to enjoy the interesting food and eating with chopsticks! I think you would enjoy it. Must visit Kyoto!

Anyone else thinking maybe a trip to visit Japan would be awesome? I am seriously considering it.
