I agree, every national Democrat should pivot themselves to Talarico’s positions immediately.
The fact that Talarico outperformed El Sayed by such an ungodly massive margin in a state that should be much harder to flip tells you everything you need to know about what direction the Democrats need to head in.

Instead of correcting course, the GOP chose to shoot the messenger and double down on stupid. (This tweet is one year old tomorrow.)

I wonder how many of my colleagues would like a chance to go back and change their vote on my Iran War Powers Resolution in March?

FSD feature request: add a Record Path button. I need the Cybertruck to reverse the full length of my driveway into the garage. That’s the only way it fits. FSD always pulls in forward or parks on the street, so I cancel every time. Let me record the exact path once. FSD learns it, then applies its own safety layer on top of that recorded route. This would help a lot of people with tight, long, or odd driveways/situations— not just me. @aelluswamy @elonmusk

Just like that, no longer a billionaires tax.
I make the philosophical case for tax fairness and taxing billionaire wealth. I welcome an argument on the merits for this new social contract. Read here: open.substack.com/pub/rokhan…

If you live in LA and your neighborhood is covered in graffiti and the city is ignoring it, just spray paint “VOTE PRATT” over it, and Karen will have it painted over within 20 minutes.

I hope they keep this “Gateway to Mars” sign in place as a constant reminder that only Mars is the ultimate destination, and the Moon is there only for “vehicle familiarization.” For more than two decades, the faith in Mars has bound this great team together in unity and powered @SpaceX’s repeated successes. For many people, the recent developments feel like a collapse of that faith. 5–7 years may be okay, but any longer and we will miss the 2033–2035 Mars window, and getting to Mars will become harder and harder. 18 years is one generation. I often say that Inspiration Mars was one generation early. I didn’t expect our generation would end up repeating what Dennis Tito had experienced. I still believe what @rookisaacman used to tell us: we can do both.

Feel free to start a laptop company and see what suppliers quote you for GDDR7.

Only one chance in this lifetime… Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those exceptional Earthset photos through the 400mm lens. @AstroVicGlover was in window 3 watching with @Astro_Jeremy next to him. I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye. Enjoy.

The time has come for America to get underway on nuclear power in space🇺🇸
Today, we are releasing new guidance to Federal agencies for establishing a National Initiative for American Space Nuclear Power, as called for by President Trump’s EO on Ensuring American Space Superiority. Nuclear power in space will give us the sustained electricity, heating, and propulsion essential to a permanent presence on the Moon, Mars, and beyond. whitehouse.gov/wp-content/up…

Melt. Extract. Fuel. Repeat. 🚀 To build an affordable, sustainable presence on the Moon, we must learn to live off the land. Air Pioneer is a scalable, modular system that creates purified oxygen to reduce dependency on supplies from Earth. Using Moon-extracted oxygen for propellant, fuel cells, and breathing reduces our lunar landers’ load by many metric tons of mass. Launching less mass from Earth lowers the cost of our Moon base, fueling a future cislunar economy. 🌕

So the problems on this mission were: - broken toilet - Outlook not working - unable to pair a Bluetooth device - communication with a vessel that's 20m away

Melt. Extract. Breathe. Repeat. 🧑‍🚀 From Moon dust to fresh air, our Air Pioneer technology turns lunar regolith into breathable oxygen, ready for astronauts returning to the Moon. At our Space Resources Center of Excellence in LA, we developed a reactor (left) that melts regolith simulant and passes a current through it to release oxygen and other gases. The gases flow into the purification system (right) and emerge as medical- and propellant-grade oxygen. A flight-qualified Air Pioneer at this same scale could provide the first breath of life for a sustainable Moon base. 🌕
