I was thinking exactly the same thing when I heard this story on Fox last night. This is just (typical) classic projection from the Left, accusing normal people of what both what they are doing and plan to do. There is much to dislike about Trump, but accusations coming against him from the TDS sufferers are…well, deranged.

Tomorrow’s Test Flight
[Saturday-morning update]
From my X feed:
Successes today: 1) Successful hot-stage separation 2) Got second stage close to planned suborbital trajectory 3) (And really important for next flight) water-deluge system seems to have protected the pad, so nothing preventing next attempt except fixing whatever caused failures
OK, a fourth success today: There seemed to be no engine failures on either stage right up until both were lost, so they’ve gotten over that hump, especially with the 33 Raptors on the booster. Huge success in terms of data gathered for further improvements in hardware/ops.
Question: Why would an FTS be triggered at that altitude/range? What’s the hazard to the ground? This is in fact the first I’d heard that the second stage even had an FTS.4551
Maybe because it was designed to enter intact, and they were concerned it would be an uncontrolled entry and hit someone downrange. I sure hope they’ll take that FTS off for operational flights with valuable cargo (including humans). Aircraft don’t have one.
The White House’s Space-Policy Proposal
Bob Zimmerman isn’t happy with it.
Against Safetyism
Is it a bigger threat than the ones it’s supposed to prevent?
They don’t mention space, but I think that safetyism lies at the heart of Kelly’s and Zach’s concerns.

Could the war in Gaza sink Biden? I hope it tears the Democrat Party apart. There should be no doubt at this point from what part of the political spectrum the anti-Semitism emanates. The frightening thing to me is how generational it is. Thanks to the Marxist takeover of our educational system, we’ve managed to raise young people to hate Jews, and to hate America.

It is time for us to all be Jews.

I agree with Vivek: Shut it down.
Of course, I’ve advocated shutting it down since it was created over forty years ago.
