He doesn’t need CA. And before long they’re going to realize it.

I doubt, somehow, that the Coastal Commission has the standing to deny this launch, at least for this purported reason. Corrections invited.

That said, time for Elan to pick up and move to either the great state of Texas or Florida. Might take a while, but worth it.

There is no reason for any (any) company to remain in the once great state of California.

These are all “appointees”...but to your point, they were appointed by Gov. Newscum, etc. who some people apparently voted for.

If we get the Congress we need federal laws to prevent crap like this.

Do you lawyers out there in FReepdom see a First Amendment violation? Right of speech and certainly association.

With apologies to Freepers who live there, but what the hell is going on with the people in that state? Kamala is 25 points ahead of Trump in California!! I live in New York which is bad enough, but here she’s only 13 points ahead. But TWENTY FIVE?? What the hell? California has a population of around 40 million people and you mean to tell me, almost ALL of those 40 million have the same political beliefs?

Having achieved the lofty rank of SP5 during my stellar Army “career” I can't be considered an Armed Forces expert. But it's hard for me to imagine the state of Kalifornia having the authority to prevent an event on an Air Force base that the Commanding Officer of that base approves.

“The California Coastal Commission on Thursday rejected the Air Force’s plan to give SpaceX permission to launch up to 50 rockets a year from Vandenberg Air Force Base in Santa Barbara County.”

How does the “California Coastal Commission” have authority over what happens on a federal military base? Is that commission a federal commission or a state one as the title would imply?

The Air Force/Vandenberg can override the CA Coastal Commission, but they want to “play nice”/be “woke’ish”. Looks like Elon gets 36 launches instead of 50...he cannot move all launch ops to TX or FL...a western launch site is needed for orbital insertion reasons. My suggestion would be Baja Mexico/Western Mexico. More Vandenberg launch info. here:

The new Commander in Chief will order the base commander at Vandenburg to overrule the California Coastal Commission.

Ever been to SF or LA?

Might clarify why they vote the way they do.

They’re not in office or elected.

It’s crazy the “coastal commission” runs the state.

Suuuuure, it’s the California people who voted for this

It can’t possibly be the illegal aliens or the democrats cheating

Because illegals are red blooded patriots and the democrats would never ever cheat at elections or polls

Riiiiiight
