True.

Is the secret to pulling off a coup to do it on the weekend? Excuse my language but where the fuck is Congress?

The NTSB will from now on issue notification and updates on news conferences exclusively through the Elon Musk owned X platform. They will no longer email notifications to the press or issue notifications via NON Musk platforms. In case you wanted to know how the fascism was going.
