I briefly met Elder Gong once and he is an incredibly genuine and kind person who you love to be around.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints@Ch_JesusChrist

In the newest episode of the Friend to Friend series released Sunday, May 24, Elder Gerrit W. Gong, of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, his wife, Susan, and the Primary General Presidency help children of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints understand the role of prophets in inviting all to come unto Christ. “The Lord loves us. He wants us to know His truth and things that will make us happy. So, He gives us living prophets,” said Elder @GerritWGong in the broadcast titled “Prophets Guide Us to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ,” available online and on YouTube.  “Having prophets on the earth today is evidence of God's great love for all of His children,” added Sister Gong. “They teach us what the Savior would want us to do, and they point us to Jesus Christ.” Learn more on Church Newsroom. newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/friend…

The shockwaves are so powerful, that it looks like reality is being ripped apart. For comparison, this rocket carries approximately the same amount of potential energy as the Hiroshima nuclear bomb. I love this stuff.

Want to know what it sounded like during the launch of Flight 12 of Starship today? Check out this video and the shaking of the windows. This was during my livestream with @esherifftv (Ellie in Space) at a ouse about 5 miles from the launch site. Definitely have the volume up! Truly a powerful rocket ... the most powerful ever!

@mattvanswol The only rationale explanation is that they are compromised. Someone has dirt on them.

Dear GOP, I know I'm new to this movement. I'm not anyone important, I'm just a regular voter who started paying attention. ...and I'm trying to figure out WHAT IN THE HELL is going on with you Because honestly... I'm really confused. From where I am, it looks like you're sitting on the EASIEST WINS IN MODERN POLITICAL HISTORY and for some reason... you just won't take them. Why aren't you forcing daily votes on clean, single-issue bills that everyone already agrees on? Mandatory voter ID. Defunding fraud. Defunding the Taliban. Stuff that polls through the roof and the stuff normal people agree on. Why aren't you at LEAST trying to win? I don't understand. Why are you betraying the same people who gave you a mandate... a few months ago??? Why are you still funding fraud?! Why are you still funding NGOs that HATE conservatives?! Why are some of you trying to push MASS AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS?! I keep trying to assume there's some smart reason I just can't think of... some masterful long game ...but it doesn't look like a long game to me It looks A HELL OF A LOT like corruption. It looks like you'd rather lose comfortably than win for the America people, uncomfortably. It looks like you're more scared of making Democrats a little sad, than you are of disappointing the people who put you in power. I cannot for the life of me figure out how that math works in your favor... unless there's corruption at play. You tell people like me to show up. You have said things like... Speak up! Vote! Donate! Volunteer! Bring our friends along! AND WE HAVE!!! BUT WE NEED YOU TO DO SOMETHING, ANYTHING AT ALL, FOR US. Use the power that was JUST given to you and FORCE THE VOTES. Make the other side go on the record OVER AND OVER. Enforce the talking filibuster. PASS THE SAVE ACT!!! DEFUND THE TALIBAN. STOP PUSHING MASS AMNESTY FOR ILLEGALS. You won... would you PLEASE start acting like it?! Because if you're not even going to try, I genuinely don't know what we're doing here. Sincerely, A brand new conservative who isn't going anywhere, but really, REALLY needs you to start fighting.

Elon Musk just defended America better than every politician in Washington combined. Musk: “After World War 2, the US could have basically taken over the world and any country. Like we got nukes, nobody else got nukes. We don’t even have to lose soldiers. Which country do you want?” One nation on earth held a weapon nobody else had. Total dominance. Zero competition. No risk of retaliation. Every empire in history that held that kind of advantage used it. Rome. The Mongols. The British. The Ottomans. They conquered until they collapsed. America had a bigger advantage than all of them combined. And it rebuilt the countries it just defeated. Musk: “The United States actually helped rebuild countries. So it helped rebuild Europe, it helped rebuild Japan. This is very unusual behavior, almost unprecedented.” Almost unprecedented? It had never happened before. Not once in 5,000 years of recorded history. The Marshall Plan wasn’t foreign aid. It was the most radical act of restraint any superpower ever committed. America turned its enemies into allies. Turned rubble into economies. Turned surrender into partnership. Germany went from ashes to the economic engine of Europe in a generation. Japan went from unconditional surrender to the third largest economy on earth. Three years after the war, America was flying food into Berlin. A city in the heart of the nation that just tried to destroy it. That’s not policy. That’s a civilization deciding what it is at the exact moment it has the power to be anything. You’re being told a story right now. That America is the villain of history. You hear it everywhere. Media. Universities. Social platforms. Musk: “There’s always like, well America’s done bad things. Well of course America’s done bad things, but one needs to look at the whole track record.” Every nation on earth has dark chapters. Every single one. The difference is what a country does when nobody can stop it. And when nobody could stop America, it fed its enemies and rebuilt their cities. Musk: “The history of China suggests that China is not acquisitive. Meaning they’re not going to go out and invade a whole bunch of countries.” Probably right. China has historically built walls, not fleets. But the real question isn’t about borders anymore. We’re approaching a moment that mirrors 1945 in ways nobody has fully processed yet. AI is going to give a handful of people a power advantage that makes nuclear monopoly look quaint. If someone is going to hold that kind of power, who do you want it to be? The country that conquered when it could? Or the one that rebuilt when it didn’t have to? Every alliance. Every trade route. Every economy. Billions lifted out of poverty. All of it traces back to one act of restraint that had never been done before. And carries no guarantee of being repeated. The most powerful thing America ever did wasn’t building the bomb. It was what it didn’t do after.

As a fellow Gen X "survivor", this cracks me up. Great post.
GRANDPA’s FREE ADVICE@GOP_is_Gutless

Greg Burgess writes.... So apparently Jill and I are on a plane to China with Trump, Elon Musk, half the Cabinet, and a collection of CEOs whose combined net worth could probably refinance the moon. Totally normal day for Gen X. And I just can’t stop laughing at how the media spent YEARS telling us: - China hated Elon - Trump was “finished” - America was collapsing - capitalism was dead - and everybody important was abandoning the U.S. Meanwhile, here we are somewhere over the Pacific looking like the cast of Succession meets Top Gun: Retirement Plan Edition. Remember when China sanctioned Marco Rubio back in 2020 and everybody acted like the geopolitical chessboard had permanently shifted? Now suddenly everybody’s still showing up to the table because — shocking development — nations tend to like: - money - technology - manufacturing - trade - AI - energy - semiconductors - and not being economically irrelevant Who knew. The best part is the internet meltdown cycle never changes. Trump: “America needs stronger trade relationships.” Media: “HITLER.” Elon: “I make electric cars, rockets, satellites, AI, and robots.” Internet activists: “Yeah but we posted an angry hashtag.” Cool. I’m sure Beijing is trembling before your TikTok resistance movement. And flying with this group is exactly what you think it would be. Trump walks around the cabin narrating reality like it’s an episode of Lifestyles of the Rich and Geopolitical: “Great flight. Powerful people. Very high IQ. The Chinese are saying they’ve never seen anything like it.” Elon looks like he hasn’t slept since 2019 and is simultaneously calculating orbital trajectories and wondering if the beverage cart could be automated. Meanwhile Jill and I are sitting there like two exhausted Gen Xers who survived dial-up internet, chain-smoking restaurants, lawn darts, and drinking from garden hoses… wondering how in the hell we became side characters in the weirdest timeline imaginable. Honestly, at this point if Trump walked into Beijing blasting “Danger Zone” while Elon live-streamed it from orbit, I wouldn’t even blink. Because the people who told us America was over are still tweeting from iPhones, driving Teslas, using Starlink during hurricanes, and cashing checks tied to the same capitalist machine they claim to hate. Gen X translation: The world’s still running. The adults are still making deals. And the internet is still confusing hashtags for accomplishments. Carry on.

@TeslaCarey Did you have to cue it by pressing the accelerator? Or, did it pass all by itself?

Confirmed 2026.2.9.9 glitch. You can’t exit Grok once activated. No music. Only Grok. Parking and exiting the vehicle didn’t fix it. Only thing that worked was double-scroll wheel reset. @teslascope @Tesla_AI @yunta_tsai
