Trump chooses billionaire astronaut Jared Isaacman to run NASA

edited December 4 in Off-Topic
From NPR-
Isaacman is a friend of Musk, and his online payment company, Shift 4, has extensive financial ties to SpaceX.

If confirmed as NASA administrator, Isaacman would oversee billions of dollars in contracts that the government has awarded to SpaceX. He would also be in a position to funnel more money to Musk's company.
Hey, that works! I like synergy sinergy..

    Nepotism, cronyism, corruption.

    Good times ahead.

    You must really hate the Make A Wish Foundation and children’s hospitals, to which Isaacman has given $ millions.

    Pretty damn impressive. Sorry if you would prefer that NASA’s principal mission be Muslim outreach.

    GREAT times ahead!

    The portal to the alternative universe that MAGA loyalists live in.....is it located within the Fox News studio itself, or do you just have to buy a certain # of Trump bibles to gain access?

    Classic TDS, right on cue! For your own health, I suggest you listen to Maher and Fetterman on how to manage your anger and grief.

    Any chance you actually read the Wiki article? (No.)
  • JD_co
    How silly of me, the portal must be stashed along with that huge mound of election fraud proof we heard about from MAGA for the past 4 years.

    If you’re determined to wallow in misery and hate for the next four (12, 20?) years and spend your days posting in this TDS echo chamber, then alas I cannot help you.

    I guess you’ll be dragged into an era of peace, prosperity and sanity kicking and screaming.

    Too bad you couldn’t follow Maher’s and Fetterman’s example and pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and get on with your life.

    They call it the Creep Cabinet for a reason.

    And so you’re consumed with loathing for an incredibly qualified candidate who’s given hundreds of $ millions to children’s charities because … of TDS.

    Watch the medical literature for future, serious investigation of this syndrome.

    I’ll try to find links to Maher, Fetterman and others that will hopefully be of help to you.

    In the meantime, TDS meltdown in 3, 2, 1…

    oligarchy = "a government in which a small group exercises control especially for corrupt and selfish purposes."

    Seems the only deranged poster here is the one yelling "TDS" at others. Just like a rad-con: projecting his own nastiness on others.

    No giggling... it's unseemly.

    Well, OK, maybe a little giggling is OK.
  • JD_co
    Interpol? I figured a mental institution somewhere was missing a "client".
  • Old_JoeOld_Joe
    Maybe Internutjob?

    Getting some good laughs here; now it's time to go see what's on Onion News Network tonight.

    Poor Ike’s ”military / industrial complex” sounds a bit dated. Maybe something today like: ”the military / space and technology complex”.
