Many low points during his term, but this one is really unconscionable.

"During a live broadcast from the International Space Station (ISS) on Tuesday, NASA astronaut Butch Wilmore dismissed recent attempts by Trump and his billionaire friend Elon Musk to politicize the Starliner mission. “The words they said, well, that’s politics. I mean, that’s part of life,” [Astronaut] Wilmore told reporters. “From my standpoint, politics has not played into this at all.” "

"Musk also claimed, without presenting any evidence, that he had offered the Biden administration a plan to bring the two Starliner astronauts back sooner, without waiting for the Crew-9 mission to return from the ISS. During the recent presser aboard the ISS, [Astronaut] Wilmore wasn’t able to confirm Musk’s claim, admitting he has “no information about that whatsoever,” such as “what was offered, what was not offered, who it was offered to, how that process went. That’s information that we simply don’t have.” "

"Musk’s companies, it should be noted, are on the receiving end of around $22 billion in government contracts. The DOGE leader has been told to self-police on any conflicts of interest, which is very reassuring."
