Just hours after Musk’s space flight company, SpaceX, delayed the launch of a cargo capsule on Saturday morning, the billionaire launched something else: a needlessly bad tweet. At 2:17 am Eastern on Saturday, SpaceX announced on Twitter it had delayed the launch of its CRS-28 mission, which aims to carry supplies from Florida to the International Space Station, citing weather concerns and “vehicle preparations.” The new launch is set for Monday. A little over five hours later, the company’s founder and CEO weighed in on a controversy involving a transgender student using the girls’ locker room at a Vermont high school. In response to a tweet from Riley Gaines, a former collegiate swimmer who has advocated against allowing trans students to compete in women’s sports, Musk voiced support for a Vermont high school student who was reportedly disciplined after trying to prevent a fellow student, who is trans, from using the girls’ locker room.

  • Musk Wants To ‘Delete’ Consumer Finance Protection Bureau
    Crooks and Liars, Friday - 11/29/2024 - 08:36 AM

    According to Bloomberg, Musk tweeted on Wednesday, “Delete CFPB.” He claimed it’s because “There are too many duplicative regulatory agencies.” Destroying the CFPB just happens to be a Project 2025 goal, too. What a coinkydink! Let’s be clear about the good the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau does and has done to protect Americans from financial harm: Via The Washington Post: Formed in the wake of the 2008 banking crisis, the CFPB has a broad mandate to protect Americans from unfair, deceptive or predatory financial practices.

  • Morning Joe Consequences? MSNBC Hemorrhages Viewers
    Crooks and Liars, Friday - 11/29/2024 - 08:35 AM

    There are consequences when you buddy up with a fascist who is hell-bent on destroying the very fabric of America. Unfortunately, the same can't be said for Fox News, but that's to be expected since the network has brainwashed its viewers since its inception. MSNBC, though, is paying the price, and I'm OK with that since Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski kissed the ring at Mar-a-Lago right after the election. According to Nielson Media Research, FOX News Channel (FNC) commanded the highest share of the cable news audience in network history, while MSNBC is facing an intense blowback over the Morning Joe hosts' staggering hypocrisy. Morning Joe's viewers plunged to 37% after the co-hosts met with You Know Who.

  • Is Rep. Tim Burchett High On Drugs?
    Crooks and Liars, Friday - 11/29/2024 - 08:00 AM

    Homophobic Republican Rep. Tim Burchett, who wants all trans men to be drafted into the military, went on a delirious rant claiming working-class men would take home $100,000 free and clear once Trump's tariffs are implemented. In his spiel, Burchett made believe the majority of the country is out of work, even though the US economy has been booming under President Biden. Even the MAGA cult doesn't believe this malarkey.
