[WashExaminer] Preserving his meager POTUS chances in 2028
Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) expressed uncommon support for Elon Musk after the California Coastal Commission blocked the latter’s efforts to increase SpaceX launches at the state’s Vandenberg Space Force Base.
"I’m with Elon. I didn’t like that. Look, I’m not helping the legal case. You just can’t bring up that explicit level of politics," Newsom said during an interview Thursday evening, later adding he wished "his friends" on the state commission would exercise more impartiality by "calling balls and strikes."
Newsom’s statement came after Musk mounted a lawsuit against the state regulator, alleging "naked political discrimination" fueled the commission’s move to pour cold water on his SpaceX plans.
The California Coastal Commission voted on Tuesday to reject the Department of Defense and Musk’s proposal to increase the number of rockets launched off California’s coastline. The Space Force, which partners with SpaceX to transport some NASA astronauts, had previously recommended that Musk’s company be given permission to launch up to 50 rockets a year from Santa Barbara County’s Vandenberg Air Force Base.

Speaking truth to power comes at a cost. If the Bots and haters on line are all she has to deal with, she is all good.

I don’t agree with her in most regards but in this case I am in agreement with Lizzo’s dark prophecy.

Lizzo left Detroit for Houston in 1998 and I don't think she has ever lived in Detroit since then.

Kamala wants us all to be equal and she wants to destroy "white supremacy." When both of those goals have been accomplished the whole country will indeed look like Detroit.

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
