They brought back the Starliner months ago but believed it was too dangerous to have the crew return in the ship. Not sure why NASA couldn’t have retrieved them in the last 8 plus months.
Not exactly a huge to-do. These astronauts would were already on a shortlist for a more extended space mission, but the odds of them being picked for it were low. They kind of viewed it as a unique opportunity and being up there for an extended period was a plan B that they were aware of when they took off. This wasn't Apollo 13.
Moreover, the Starliner failure, as well as the recent Spacx failures are examples of the risks that privatization still has for early stage space exploration.
I very lightly skimmed that an article that said some things about a space ship being stuck up in space, talking bout it being too dangerous to bring back. Think it was off of a current news site. I thought I remembered that ship returning, but I just assumed I was misremembering. Can't think of any other ship being stuck up in space other than that one. Must have been an old article & I just didn't realize.
So, let me get this straight.... so far we've labeled military history webpages for Jackie Robinson, the Navajo Windtalkers, and an African American medal of honor winner as "DEI" when reveiwing the pentagon's websites....
The anti-DEI initiative I is just a dogwhistle for publicly accepted racism.

There was 7-10 years in between first through third generations of fighter jets. Then jets became a little higher cost project, and the tech was able to last a little longer. It was 15 years between the next generation, and 20 years between the last generation. Now it has been 25 years since the last generation.
So it's probably about time for 6th gen. So I say bravo on Trump deciding to build the next gen jet. But wow, Boeing is not doing so well to depend on them putting out a product. It could be inferior quality, behind schedule, and have major cost overruns. Their last big project, the Starliner didn't fare so well. They had to do the return trip without pilots to ensure their safety. Doesn't make you feel confident in projects like this.
I'm glad though that Musk didn't sidle up to the offer table. A first run project w/ Space X doing the F-47 would have been a bigger disaster. I'm hoping that other companies like Lockheed Martin get more heavily involved this time. Hopefully it exceeds China's J-36.

Okay @aTUfan, time for you to take some medicine. You always said you just wanted people to come in legally (“through the front door”) and that your problem was with illegal immigrants.
Now, the people who came in legally, (through the front door) are being booted out for little to no justification. Are you going to stand by your word or are you going to be a hypocrite?

U.S. to revoke legal status of more than a half-million migrants, urges them to self deport
A total of 532,000 migrants from from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela entered the U.S. under the CHNV policy.

they were escorted in by Biden without actually meeting the requirements.Okay @aTUfan, time for you to take some medicine. You always said you just wanted people to come in legally (“through the front door”) and that your problem was with illegal immigrants.

You ****ing liar
You never cared if people came in the way they were asked to come in and allowed to come in (on a probationary basis by the way) You just didn’t want them here. You don’t care to actually give people an opportunity to become American and escape violence and poverty. No one will ever be good enough for you.
What if some of those Haitians spent all of their time learning English, US history and civics in preparation for the US Citizenship test? Why do you think they don’t deserve to stay?

This is a good way to lose Florida in the next election….
because I know people who did it the right way and Biden let people jump the line
The right way is whatever our government says it is, not what you say it is.
Did the folks coming through Ellis Island who signed their name come in the “right way” to you?
Remember, these people weren’t done. They were just given a pathway to citizenship. You want to take away that pathway for no reason.
Personally I would trade one of them for you no questions asked.

They also removed any pictures or named references to the "Enola Gay" aircraft that dropped the bomb. I wish I were kidding. The things that happen when you say, "Hey, ChatGPT... Go through all gov sites and auto-remove anything related to LGBT or "diversity".
Trump's tariffs and 'drill baby drill' policies are lambasted by Oil Executives in anonymous survey conducted quarterly by the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas.
“The administration’s chaos is a disaster for the commodity markets,” one executive said. ”‘Drill, baby, drill’ is nothing short of a myth and populist rallying cry. Tariff policy is impossible for us to predict and doesn’t have a clear goal. We want more stability.”
“Uncertainty around everything has sharply risen during the past quarter,” another executive said. “Planning for new development is extremely difficult right now due to the uncertainty around steel-based products.”
“The threat of $50 oil prices by the administration has caused our firm to reduce its 2025 and 2026 capital expenditures,” an executive said. ”‘Drill, baby, drill’ does not work with $50 per barrel oil. Rigs will get dropped, employment in the oil industry will decrease, and U.S. oil production will decline as it did during COVID-19.”

He and co-president Musk don't give a crap, and Trump probably doesn't have a clue what his chaos government will do to the markets.
Trump now bragging that the Judiary, Legal system, Congress, bla bla bla, doesn't seem to be able to slow him down. He is bragging that he seems to be able to do anything he wants without anyone to slow him down. He's in the middle of tearing up the government that we have lived in for 200+ years, and is proud that he is destroying it with abandon. I hope the courts make him eat his words. I hope the people that can't afford cars at 25% higher cost also help drum him out of office.
He's talking about extra-constitutionally retaining his presidential powers as a dictator like Putin would.
But he's got a way to do it legally. Then again, he'll probably be dead or Donald Trump Jr's VP.
I would love a monthly report detailing how much the sitting President costs the American taxpayers with travel expenses. Heck….Congress as well.
Atlanta Fed’s GDP estimate
8 weeks ago it was +3.9%
4 weeks ago it was +2.3%
Last week it was -2.8%
Today it stands at -3.7%

Mr “Tough on Crime” makes history as the first president to pardon a corporation… specifically one found guilty of charges of acting as a vehicle for money laundering.
So…for those keeping score at home… shoot a CEO who has a hand in the deaths of thousands of people? Death penalty….
Defraud the public and promote other criminal activity? Get off Scott free.
Break the windows of the US capitol in efforts to prevent constitutionally mandated processes? Get a Kennedy Center honor.
Break the window of a Tesla Cybetruck because the owner is a fascist? Get sent to a Salvadoran Prison.
Thats a really Utopian we live in.
Did Corey Booker talk about the price of eggs?
He certainly had enough time to discuss eggs.

No, I thought I heard him talk about having boned your high school sweetheart though. Go listen to his speech and see if you can prove me wrong.

Well, he told another lie.
He must have been thinking of when he boned Nancy Pelosi. She's more his type.
