With some not-small number of billions destined for SpaceX

Just noting that for all the hype about DOGE and cutting government waste Congress is expected to soon pass a $900 billion or so defense bill with big bipartisan majorities

Have you read NASA's IG reports tho? I condemn Musk but SpaceX is doing right by NASA and taxpayers.

I hate to be 100% cynical, but is it ALL grift? Are there ANY economic positives which could come from this dumpster fire of a cabinet pick? 🗑️🔥

Where are the Dems? Why are they agreeing to give him the handout which is not competitive? Elon should audit his own govt handout and cut it by 50%

"Good Federal spending" lines Musk's pockets.

DOGE may find it likely merits doubling.

"A rocket-ship in every backyard!"

Visionary.

Tunnels bored from here to there on the public dime.

"Bad Federal spending" is the sort that doesn't accrue benefits to billionaires.

It's not too complicated.
