Trump didnât write that tweetâhe canât string a coherent sentence together if his life depended on it. My guess is Miller wrote it.
As I think the trump administration is a many-legged creature with only half a brain, it probably doesnât make much difference who is tapping at the keyboard.
If the phone ever actually materialise, my guess is that it will be a horribly underpowered Android phone, pre-installed with Trump-branded $TRUMP apps, the Truth Social app, etc. As for the âMade in Americaâ part, they will either
- be manufactured in Mexico or another country on the American continent(s), thus being technically American (but not US. American)
OR
- theyâll import parts from China or Taiwan (after having made sure theyâre exempted from the Trump tariffs, and having a final symbolic assembly in the US, like mounting little rubber feet on the back, or something similar.
Either way, I will not trust any member of the Trump clan futher than I can toss a forklift truck with my hands tied behind my back.
If you look on their website, thereâs a map of their proposed coverage area. The map has the gulf clearly labeled âGulf of Mexicoâ.
I find that funny and ironic.
DHS Secretary Noem was taken to the hospital today as the result of an allergic reaction.
Yeah, sheâs probably allergic to democracy.
Iâve just spent an amusing few minutes looking at her nicknames ⌠âPuppy Spiceâ, âCruella de Vilâ, âCosplay Kristiâ and âICE Barbieâ.
How could he pardon r kelly while thereâs allegations of trump being a pedo⌠I think he might be incapable of reading the room or its not himâŚmaybe the conspiracy theorists are right, its the reptilian overlords bro!!!
I kind of like âBotox Barbieâ.
Chalk up another death because of religionâŚ

Crews in Ireland began work this week to excavate the site of a former church-run home for unmarried women and their babies to identify the remains of around 800 infants and young children who died there.
[âŚ]
Investigators later found a mass grave containing the remains of babies and young children in an underground sewage structure on the grounds of the home. DNA analysis found that the ages of the dead ranged from 35 weeks gestation to 3 years.
âŚbut according to the types of religionists responsible here, itâs abortions that are immoral. And you canât have morals without a god.
I see another of Muskâs rockets has âspontaneously disassembledâ itself, on the launch pad this time. He has called it an anomaly. Sound ore like a good old fashioned explosion to me, but what do I know.
This was not the first stage but the Starship itself again. Given the near-100% failure rate (IIRC only 1 or 2 early ones achieved the desired âcontrolled splashdownâ in the Indian Ocean, and from the video I saw of one, it very nearly lost one of its control fins to insufficient heat shielding) it is looking more and more like there are fundamental design flaws, probably due to cutting corners.
I can only speculate, but it sounds like another of Muskâs sunk cost fallacies, similar to the battery design he bet the farm on for Tesla but has never been able to get decent production yield rates from it, and has been long since passed by other makers â notably BYD in China, which not only has a battery chemistry that is denser and much faster charging but is starting to produce cars that are CHEAPER than conventional autos. Another example was removing costly infrared, radar & lidar sensors from Teslas and disabling them even on older models, and going all-in on âvisual onlyâ which has a lot to do with his inability to make âfull self drivingâ anything but vaporware, even if there werenât other factors in play.
Mark my words â even if they redesign this away, in a few weeks, months or years someone will do a factual postmortem and it will involve some basic design flaw in the engines or fuel systems that Musk was attached to for way too long and did initially against the advice of his top engineers.
Despite what his Mommy keeps saying, Musk is no Galaxy Brain. He is just good at shameless self-promotion and bullshitting his way to success. But only to a point.
He seems to favor engineering by trial and error. The Starship is an excellent example. Last nightâs failure was, what?, the tenth in a row? Not a single one has had a successful mission.
Contrast that with the Saturn V, which was designed in the early 1960s. The Saturn V flew 13 times, and every single one successfully got to orbit and fulfilled its mission. The first flight was nearly flawless. The second flight had issues with pogo, but they were quickly fixed, and the third flight took Borman, Anders, and Lovell to the moon on Apollo 8. Hell, the Apollo 12 Saturn V was struck by lightning, twice, during its ascent, and it make it to orbit just fine, and sent the Apollo stack successfully to the moon.
In fact, the entire Saturn program, which included the Saturn I, the Saturn IB, and the Saturn V, had a perfect launch record.
The Starship is a bad joke.
Apparently the static test firing hadnât even started. It just blew up while sitting there.
