If any of you are under the impression that our billionaires might succeed in "escaping" to space, while the world burns, let me put those fears to rest with what I know from being the spouse of a NAS...

SummaryA NASA flight controller's spouse debunks the myth that billionaires can escape to space while Earth suffers, explaining that space travel requires massive ground teams, is physically grueling, and offers no comfort or escape despite billions spent.

Trump’s new tariffs aren’t a trade tweak—they’re the first move in a full-spectrum reset. $9.2T in debt matures in 2025. Inflation lingers. Alliances are shifting. One announcement just set a dozen...

SummaryTrump's tariffs are a multi-pronged economic strategy designed to lower Treasury yields (easing debt refinancing), cut the deficit through spending cuts, jumpstart domestic manufacturing, and renegotiate global alliances through trade leverage. The approach carries significant risks: if domestic supply can't scale up quickly, inflation could spike and force Fed rate hikes, potentially derailing the plan by the 2026 midterms.Apr 3, 202521 tweets♥ 84.2K
