Looking stupid.
Katy Perry, Gayle King, Amanda Nguyen, Aisha Bowe, and Kerianne Flynn praise a Blue Origin rocket.

They’re going to space for 11 minutes on Monday with Jeff Bezos’ fiancée Lauren Sanchez.

Just lost all respect for every one of them for sucking up to Bezos.

Savings accounts, pensions, working class 401ks, all of these have been decimated by Trump. He is building policy off the crackpot ideas of one disgraced economist, Peter Navarro, and we are all paying the price. Watch @therickwilson.bsky.social here: t.co/CfwAJVZWOt

Elon Musk can't be trusted with rockets, drugs, video games, social media, or even his own children. He damn sure can't be trusted with your data.

Trump fired the heads of TSA, the Coast Guard and key aviation safety advisors. Trump needs to be held accountable for the DC airplane/helicopter crash.

Who here agrees?

Elizabeth Warren: "It's safe to assume that when he says he has never disparaged women in the military, he's just trying to see what he can get away with. Because we've got the video, we've got him in print what he has just said as recently as November of 2024."

Reality is almost beside the point here, but having documented months of DC’s 2020 protests, I can say that if he thought those protests justified the use of the military and helicopters and chemical weapons as crowd control, he simply thinks those are acceptable responses to protests, period.
HIRONO: Would you carry out an order from President Trump to shoot protesters in the legs?

HEGSETH: *dodges question*

HIRONO: That sounds to me that you would comply with such an order. You still shoot protesters in the legs

HEGSETH: *silent*
