This sounds like SpaceX is being targeted by regulators and delayed until in November (the elections?) for the next launch.

The immediate headline is that the Starship launch is likely delayed until November at the earliest due to the FAA continually dragging it out.

The long term outlook however is much more dire.
SpaceX is being unfairly blocked by bad actors and detractors.

This IS a problem. This IS going to impact our return to the moon, journey to Mars, and overall competitiveness as a nation.

The first nation with a company (SpaceX) to make private, commercial spaceflight a thing, may I add.

I hope you share this video, SpaceX has put together a very compelling argument.

All the while the astronaut was outside the capsule, I had an anxious feeling, as I was imagining Frank Poole tumbling away into the void. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4KuL19gbn08

Yes, the Biden junta targets Musk, and its fellow despots in Brazil, the UK, and elsewhere are doing the same thing. We need unity, and too have that, we need to eliminate dissent, because dissent is a threat to diversity. And we have always been at war with Eastasia.
