How do you have so many guns, and yet no one is taking pot shots at these scumbags? Surely someone gutting the crown jewel of your nation should rile up the inevitable if small crossover in the Venn diagram of NASA-lovers, NRA members, and the clinically pissed-off
It is one of my unanswered questions of American culture: the low amount of political violence against elites of any political organization.
Political violence against the poor has always been a staple. But somehow it does not happen against the wealthy unless it’s their own doing it.
I’m ignoring the handful of high profile assassinations over the last 250 years done by poor people, often mentally ill.
Yes, that’s what the fascists need, martyrs
The reality is at this point the smart thing to do is be forming militias but the American left simply isn’t going to do that.
can only sigh so hard
Boy they sure are owning the libs. “…peaceful purposes for the benefit of all mankind” is such a pansy-ass mission. If we do great stuff and just share it with everyone, no billionaires get any richer!
NASA was created enthusiastically by Eisenhower, a Republican war hero who had governed American-occupied Germany during WWII and was the first supreme commander of NATO just prior to becoming president. He unleashed an era of American greatness, including the entire interstate highway system which unlocked decades of future commerce growth and is named after him. If you had to name a single president who embodied the Greatness of which one might want to Make America embody Again, there are many strong arguments to be made that Eisenhower is the man.
He also signed the civil rights act and enforced school desegregation, in addition to warning the public about the rise of the Military Industrial Complex on his way out of office. In fact, he’s not at all what the nazifascist cheerleaders behind the worst president in American history would ever have thought of as great, but the MAGA slogan was a lie from the very beginning. It’s a very sad time to be an American.
Ummm Eisenhower signed the civil rights act? The one in the 60s?
The one in 1957. Maybe it doesn’t deserve the definite article since the 1964 one was a bigger deal, but there have been several things called the civil rights act at the time.
The main reason I bought it up is to point out just how far apart he was from what currently calls itself the Republican Party. Neither one would approve of the other.
I like Ike.
Trumpites are the real RINOs (Republicans In Name Only).
I wonder what country all the scientists will go to this time
It would only be fair for a large portion of NASA to go to Germany.
Mainly France. Macron invited a lot of scientists. Germany and other EU countries as well.
Canada needs to step up.
I think some also went there, or to Australia and New Zealand. Maybe other ones too. But I’m less certain of all those.
I expect nothing else from a Third World country, run by a tinpot dick tater-tot.
Fuck this dude. Fuck road rules tool bags.
Cowards and bootlickers.
Sycophants
