Or "racist" or "domestic terrorist" just because you don't agree with them politically.

There is no excuse for that metro commuter train blasting through that intersection at 60+ mph. This is a failure of infrastructure. Any city and county 911 system should have immediate quick dial access to 7x24 train engineer communication if a report comes in about a vehicle (or a plane in this case), on the tracks. Forget dispatch. Someone there might be in the bathroom or getting coffee in the break room. From what I understand here there were at least five minutes between the crash and when the police showed up and pulled him out. Plenty of time to get that passenger train stopped.

Actually I just realized this crash is in the LA area so not even remotely close....

Nope. Different area of San Diego. That Cessna 340 was destined for Montgomery-Gibbs Executive Airport (KMYF). The crash was caught on several security doorbell videos from nearby homes. Also, that UPS truck was approaching a stop sign at the corner where the house was it and set ablaze. The truck was hit by the plane and the driver was killed. There is video from neighbors showing the fires right after it happened showing the UPS truck with a massive gouge in the front half and engulfed in flames. Sad bad day.

The entire world was shut down for an entire YEAR with minimal emissions. Manufacturing plants, automobiles, and aircraft. Yet, that didn't magically drop this summer's temperatures as some of the climate change hysterics thought it would. Finally, of the 25 biggest cities on the planet responsible for the most carbon emissions, 22 of that 25 are in CHINA. You think they'll stop spewing their pollution? And don't buy their lies of going "green."

I wonder why we are not getting a demographics breakdown of that statistic. For starters I'd love to know how many positive cases have come illegally across the border from Biden's open arms and then been shipped like cattle to Red states like Florida and Georgia (we know the reason behind it - votes!). I'd also like to see a racial breakdown as well since the fake news media like DNCNN won't tell you that over half of African Americans and Hispanics/Latinos (most of whom voted for Biden) still refuse to get vaxxed.* They just love to lie to you that it's only the ignorant Trumpsters who refuse to get stuck. I am also comically reminded of the hypocrisy from the Dems like Harris who last year said she would not trust any vaccine created under the Trump administration. Short memories. *Source - CDC data reported as of 7/19

Name one thing the bloated federal government can manage and run "better" than the private sector businesses can themselves. If government were a business, it would have been bankrupt LONG ago.

You missed the part where both he and Musk as well as Bezos are not competing with each other for ego. They are launching their own space tourist businesses which hopefully will come down in price per seat as more vehicles are built. Jealous much?

We are pummeled 7x24 daily by space debris. Here on earth we call it dust, the stuff you have to remove from your home's furnishings on regular basis.
