Can reason alone lead us to truth?

Yelling louder doesn’t change the law.

Elon Musk criticized Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, who is also the acting administrator of NASA, claiming that he’s “trying to kill” the agency. “Sean Dummy is trying to kill NASA!” Musk said.

The person responsible for America’s space program can’t have a 2 digit IQ https://t.co/U4O2GERiTg — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) October 21, 2025 NBC News shared background info: Musk’s posts came after Duffy announced on Monday that in NASA’s quest to return astronauts to the moon — and to do so before China puts its own bootprints there — the agency is open to using moon landers from competitors to SpaceX. NASA’s plan had been to use SpaceX’s next-generation Starship rocket system, which is in development, to land on the lunar surface. In his posts on Tuesday, Musk even created a poll for his X followers to weigh in, asking: “Should someone whose biggest claim to fame is climbing trees be running America’s space program?” One response option read, “Yezz, chimps skillz rūl!” while the other was, “Noo, he need moar brainz!” As of Tuesday afternoon, the poll had nearly 110,000 votes. SpaceX won a $2.9 billion contract in 2021 to use its Starship rocket system to land two astronauts on the lunar surface for NASA’s Artemis III mission, which is slated to launch in 2027. But Musk’s rocket company has fallen behind schedule with its testing and development of Starship, and the vehicle suffered a string of explosive failures earlier this year.

I’m going to let other space companies compete with SpaceX,” Duffy said during an interview, according to CNN. Duffy also reportedly said SpaceX does “remarkable things,” but that “they’re behind schedule.” “Now that Duffy’s in the room, SpaceX contracts are about to get real scrutiny,” Bannon’s WarRoom said in July. Watch Bannon’s comments below: BANNON: This is why Trump picked Sean Duffy as interim head of NASA. When everyone was worshipping Elmo Musk, Duffy called him a liar to his face about laying off air traffic controllers.

Trump had pulled Isaacman’s nomination for NASA administrator earlier this year – the same week Musk departed his role in Washington. Though Trump cited Isaacman’s “prior associations” as the reason for pulling the nomination, CNN previously reported that a faction of people in Trump’s inner circle advocated against Isaacman after Musk left Washington and shortly before Musk’s very public falling out with the President. But Isaacman — who has twice flown to orbit on SpaceX capsules he commissioned — has reportedly been back in the running, and a source familiar with the matter confirmed he has met with Trump.

They’re All Laughing At Us

President Donald Trump was honored on Tuesday with the Richard Nixon Foundation’s Architect of Peace Award during a private ceremony at the White House. He is the first sitting U.S. president to receive the honor.

The following cultures will soon look like the Third World. They are accepting large numbers of unvetted third world migrants. Greece and Ireland are taking the most from primitive lands. As Neoptolemus writes, “an immigrant granted asylum has the freedom to move wherever he wants.
