People are selling chunks of SpaceX's exploded Starship on eBay.
Futurism reports that recovered ceramic heat shield tiles are being offered for thousands of dollars.
Elon Musk wanted Texas legislators to create new crimes so people who fly drones or interfere with operations at SpaceX can be arrested. And he wanted to change who controlled the highway and public beach near SpaceX’s site so he can launch his rockets according to his timeline.
He got them all.

Isidor from CNN musk's #starlink that's
5:06
owned by #SpaceX gets an #FAA_CONTRACT??
5:09
whoa another big government contract
5:11
right after he lost Carlos's 7 billion
5:14
do and 22 billion future dollars
5:17
suddenly he gets a big cushy government
5:19
contract today raising new conflict of
5:22
interest concerns remember Donald Trump
5:24
said that Elon Musk can on his own um
5:28
self evalue valate whether or not he has
5:30
a conflict of interest sounds a lot like
5:32
how scotus polices themselves and
5:34
there's no oversight musk can just Poli
5:37
he can decide for himself whether he has
5:39
a conflict of interest so when his
5:41
company is suddenly facing a rapid
5:43
devaluation when he's lost massive
5:45
contracts lost a huge amount of influx
5:48
of cash what happens near Days Later
5:52
days later um suddenly he gets a big FAA
5:56
contract I'll read you just a little bit
5:57
of the article if you want to read the
5:59
whole thing it's on on CNN's website the
6:01
Federal Aviation Administration has
6:03
agreed agreed they got the screws put to
6:06
them to use space X's starlink internet
6:09
system to upgrade the information
6:11
technology networks it uses to manage us
6:14
airspace right so I'd heard folks
6:16
especially on Blue Sky talking about
6:17
like all of these plane crashes and
6:19
these issues with the FAA and all these
6:21
massive cuts that Doge was making to the
6:24
FAA that that was all leading towards
6:27
something like this so now start link is
6:30
going to be used to manage us airspace
6:34
this reading again raises new concerns
6:36
about conflicts of interest for CEO Elon
6:38
Musk in one of his other roles that of
6:41
recommending funding cuts to federal
6:43
agencies including the FAA the size of
6:46
this contract was not immediately
6:48
reported I have still not seen the
6:50
numbers on this I've been looking online
6:52
SpaceX is a privately Health space
6:54
technology company greatly dependent on
6:56
federal contracts primarily for from
6:59
NASA and we saw um musk was going for
7:02
NASA we saw him angry tweeting about
7:05
astronauts just a couple days ago this
7:07
contract comes while musk is leading
7:09
efforts to make deep Cuts in the federal
7:11
government spending including Staffing
7:13
cuts to the FAA and critics are raising
7:16
questions about conflicts of interest
7:17
over his role overseeing government
7:19
agencies that are supposed to be
7:21
regulating his business so the FAA in a
7:24
post on Twitter last night because I
7:25
guess that's how we get all of our um
7:27
government information relay to us now
7:29
the FAA said that it was going to be it
7:32
already is testing a starlink terminal
7:35
at Atlantic City New Jersey and two what
7:38
it calls non-safety critical sites in
7:41
Alaska the plan is to roll out starlink
7:43
at
7:44
4,000 locations over the next 12 to 18
7:47
months the current FAA system needs an
7:50
upgrade right and that's one of the
7:51
things this article goes on to explain
7:53
the contract they had was with Verizon
7:55
and they already had a contract for
7:57
Verizon to upgrade the technology
8:00
and improve the FAA system however musk
8:03
said the Verizon system is not working
8:05
and it's putting air Travelers at
8:07
serious risk weird that we've had an
8:09
uptick in crashes and near misses near
8:13
crashes just when musk wants to say that
8:17
the system that was in place that they
8:19
had planned on upgrading is not good
8:21
enough and they need to use his
8:23
proprietary technology which directly
8:25
benefits him his pocketbook his
8:27
valuation of his wealth so how the
8:30
is this not a conflict of interest we
8:31
all know that it is I said in another
8:34
video that we need to name things
8:35
accurately we need to say that Maha is
8:37
eugenics we need to say that this is
8:39
corruption this is unethical there is
8:41
nothing about Doge that is about
8:43
increasing government deficiency musk
8:45
was in significant legal and financial
8:48
trouble before the election everything
8:50
that doge is doing is about shutting
8:52
down the investigations against him
8:54
punishing the Departments that were
8:55
investigating him and securing millions
8:58
billions in tax payer money to keep his
9:02
wealth tremendously inflated and keep
9:04
his companies going I don't know how to
9:07
communicate this to conservatives who
9:09
are living in la la land and believing
9:11
whatever musk tweets but they are so
9:13
blatantly out and proud with the
9:15
corruption you don't have to be a lawyer
9:17
or a political analyst to understand how
9:19
transparently unethical this all is
9:22
which is why it is so important for us
9:23
to be strategic about creating maximum
9:25
economic impact withholding our dollars
9:27
from the economy but we also need to
9:28
sound the alarm for every one of these
9:31
contracts for every conflict of interest
9:34
it's clear as day what they're doing and
9:36
we need to call it out..

One Agency Tried to Regulate SpaceX. Now Its Fate Could Be in Elon Musk’s Hands.
—
The Trump ally and DOGE chief is expected to turn his budget-slashing sights on the FAA’s little-known commercial spaceflight office, which has proposed fines and grounded SpaceX after explosions and other incidents.

So, Trump announced a bunch of tariffs today. Basically everybody but Russia.
But then there is 15-30 % for everybody. But Lesotho? Fuck Lesotho in particular, apparently. 50% tariffs.
Just by a super coincidence, seems like Starlink is trying to get a contract in Lesotho and having some difficulties. Clearly unrelated.

After Two SpaceX Explosions, U.K. Officials Ask FAA to Change Starship Flight Plans

Facing a significant increase in the number of SpaceX launches, British officials detailed their concerns about the safety of Turks and Caicos and other Caribbean territories after debris from an earlier failed launch littered beaches and roads.

Lunar landers and 'Transporter' tankers: Blue Origin unveils its blueprint for the moon
While Musk and Starship explode, Bezos self-funds Moon ships. New Glenn heavy booster has put first payload into orbit. Blue Origin can quietly come from behind in Space Race 2.0.

I know space is hard, but 1 of 9 getting to orbit when the owner is fine with gutting the US to get to Mars isn't filling me with confidence. Or that he lies about everything else regarding his companies. FSD? 2016 landing on Mars?
#SpaceX Loses Control of #Starship, Adding to #Spacecraft’s *Mixed* Record

Elon Musk gutted the federal government, dismantled key institutions, and cut off food and medicine to some of the poorest people on the planet.
By leaving DOGE, he’s trying to restore his reputation and rescue his struggling businesses. He should never be allowed to recover.

In a serious gain in efficiency, a Space X Starship prototype has exploded without actually being launched.
They're next plan is to see if they can produce an explosion during the assembly process.
#SpaceX to invest $2B in #Musk #xAI
SpaceX has committed $2B to xAI as part of a $5B equity round, deepening the ties between #tech billionaire Elon Musk's ventures as his #AI startup races to compete w/ #OpenAI, the WSJ reported on Sat.
The investment follows xAI's merger with #X & values the combined company at $113B, with the #Grok #chatbot now powering #Starlink support & eyed for future integration into #Tesla's #Optimus #robots, the report added.
