My best friend who lives in Hawaii sent me this text this morning that the Muskrat wants space X to splash

Down into Hawaiian waters. Just when I think he can’t be more despicable I hear this.

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - Elon Musk wants to splashdown his SpaceX rockets in a much larger area in Hawaii waters and Hawaii residents are encouraged to weigh in.

The space exploration company is asking the FAA for a landing zone about 20 times larger than its current zone.

The proposal also seeks to increase the number of landings from 5 to 25 a year.

The new area would include waters used by fishermen and humpback whales. It’ll also encompass significant areas like Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument.

A FAA biological opinion from 2022 found the previous landing area would not cause harm to marine mammals or critical habitats. BS

My friend’s husband is a renowned senior research Marine Biologist who has appeared in several National Geographic documentaries. She said he is going to do everything they can do to stop this ! Please spread this around. He is also a research marine biologist for the National Geographic pristine seas program where they work to preserve our oceans.

I know this has been posted before on DU about right now we need these words again

Pity the nation...
BY LAWRANCE. FERLINGHETTI (2007)

Pity the nation whose people are sheep
And whose shepherds mislead them
Pity the nation whose leaders are liars
Whose sages are silenced
and whose bigots haunt the airways
Pity the nation that raises not its voice
but aims to rule the world
by force and by torture
And knows
No other language but its own
Pity the nation whose breath is money
and sleeps the sleep of the too well fed
Pity the nation Oh pity the people of my country
My country, tears of thee
Sweet land of liberty!

So James Woods lied about his house burning down

Why am I not surprised ?

Actor James Woods says his house in Pacific Palisades has survived the Los Angeles wildfires that had devastated much of his neighborhood.

Ok this is the weirdest New Eve and day ever !

Lightening strikes the US Capitol Washington monument , the Empire State building and the World Trade Center monument. A crazed man drives his truck through Bourbon street and kills over 15 people. And a cyber truck catches on fire in front of the dumpt tower in Las Vegas.

It’s either Satan is sending a welcoming message to his disciple starting 1/20 and God is warning us of impending doom!

I had such dreams of what it could be for the USA in 2025

Disappointed is not even the adjective. But we must go on and deal with it. Life sometimes is throws us punches to make us stronger. Now we all need to stand tall and be stronger and tell that MFer we’re not going back and punch them back.

That’s the way one should stand up to bullies!

I've been reading about all these appointments from the upcoming dumpt reign of terror starting on Jan 20th

And I wonder how much money dumpt is getting paid in offshore bank accounts? I bet he has about 1 billion dollars by now in those accounts and more to come.

It would be a good story if this info came out exposing his kickbacks. But you know how dumpt is so transactional he is charging the rich guys for these ambassadors and agency heads.

The best description of the muskrat I've read

Musk didn’t invent Tesla, he bought it
Musk didn’t invent SpaceX, he bought it
Musk didn’t invent Starlink, he bought it
Musk didn’t invent “X,” he bought it
Musk didn’t invent Trump, he bought him. - nazir

I didn’t write this but it is so spot on.


And there is a federal law that government contractors can’t do political donations, Muskrat donated $250 million to the orange Hitler 2.0. Why is he allowed to break laws?

Great idea to piss off and troll dumpt

Instead of saying President elect dumpt we should say President elect Musk! Because you know he really brought the presidency! Without his money the orange one would have not won !
