Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished

The tension in the Texas NASA community is overwhelming not knowing if they will keep their jobs or even if the space program will exist anymore. These men and women are heroes. The best of our nation. If NASA goes Cornyn and Cruz will pay politically.

What this long and detailed NYT piece calmly calls an “extraordinary flexing of power by a private individual” is in fact a blatantly unconstitutional usurpation of Congress’s Article I powers and delegation of the President’s Article II duties.
