There's no evidence that Biden refused Elon Musk's offer to take them back for political reasons. The plan was always for them to come back in February 2025. This shit takes time.

Additionally, it was discovered she couldnât have done it based off of her logged hours, and additionally it was discovered that the module was filled with drill marks made by retarded drunk energomash or energia (canât remember which) contractors who built the module.

Musk once claimed The Boring Company had âverbal government approvalâ for a New York-to-Washington D.C. Hyperloop in 2017, which federal officials denied, and heâs overstated product timelinesâlike the Tesla Cybertruck, unveiled in 2019 but delayed for years despite deposit-taking. Critics also point to his Neuralink claims, such as a 2024 statement that a patient could control a mouse with a brain implant, which lacks independent verification.
More recently, Musk has faced backlash for amplifying false political claims on X. In 2024, he posted that Democrats were importing âillegal votersâ via asylum seekers to rig elections, citing exaggerated figures like âtwo million new legal votersâ in four years. Fact-checks, such as one from the Brennan Center for Justice showing non-citizen voting is negligible (0.0001% of votes in 2016), debunked this. Similarly, his 2023 endorsement of an antisemitic conspiracy theoryâcalling it âactual truthââdrew White House condemnation as a âhideous lie,â tied to historical violence like the 2018 Pittsburgh synagogue shooting. Musk later apologized, admitting it was a mistake, but the incident underscored his tendency to promote unverified claims.

One well-documented case involves Muskâs 2018 tweets claiming he had âfunding securedâ to take Tesla private at $420 per share. This statement triggered a surge in Teslaâs stock price, but it later emerged that no firm financing was in placeâonly preliminary talks with Saudi Arabiaâs Public Investment Fund had occurred. A federal judge ruled the tweets were false and reckless, leading to a settlement with the SEC where Musk and Tesla each paid $20 million in fines, and Musk stepped down as Tesla chairman. Critics, including shareholders in a class-action lawsuit, argued this misled investors, costing them millions when the stock fluctuated wildly after the deal fell apart.

Okay. Here:
>>16595080
>>16595075
Another frequent point of contention is Teslaâs autonomous driving technology. Musk has repeatedly promised full self-driving capabilities were imminentâsaying in 2016 it would be ready in two years, and in 2021 claiming Tesla was âvery closeâ to driverless cars by year-end. Yet, internal Tesla communications, like a 2021 memo from the autopilot software director to California regulators, admitted Muskâs timelines didnât match âengineering reality.â As of early 2025, Teslaâs Full Self-Driving (FSD) system still requires human supervision, and its crash recordâlinked to hundreds of incidents and multiple fatalitiesâhas fueled skepticism about Muskâs rosy projections.
Muskâs Hyperloop concept is another example. In 2013, he pitched a high-speed transportation system that could shuttle passengers from Los Angeles to San Francisco in 35 minutes, claiming it was feasible and cost-effective. He later founded The Boring Company to pursue related tunneling projects, but the resultsâlike a short test tunnel in Hawthorne, Californiaâfell far short of the grand vision. Critics argue Musk oversold the ideaâs practicality, with no operational Hyperloop system materializing despite years of hype.

Verbal agreement isn't a lie. Your confusion is thinking verbal agreements mean anything. Musk's overhyping verbal agreements mean nothing.
>overstated timelines
Not a lie, just wrong timeline prediction, due to various factors that are beyond his control like war/covid factory shutdowns.
>critics say neuralink is fake
It works, there are ~4 human patients with it now. Critics are liars
>democrats were importing illegal voters
They imported millions of illegals. Election cannot be verfied in many democrat states and they made sure to ban any verification process. Further the house seat depends not on citizenship but on population. So its rigging the vote.

For the Hyperloop/New York-to-D.C. tunnel claim in 2017, Musk tweeted that The Boring Company had âverbal govt approvalâ for a route. Federal and local agencies, including the U.S. Department of Transportation and New York City officials, later said no such approval existed in any formal or meaningful capacity (per The Verge, âElon Muskâs Boring Company âverbal approvalâ claim disputed by officials,â July 20, 2017). If Musk did have a casual conversation with an official, calling it âapprovalâ inflates a noncommittal exchange into something it wasnât. Thatâs not a lie in the sense of inventing a conversation that never happenedâitâs a stretch of interpretation, hyping an informal nod into a done deal. Critics see this as misleading, but as you suggest, it hinges on Muskâs pattern of overhyping rather than a provable intent to deceive.
This nuance applies elsewhere too. Take the Tesla âfunding securedâ tweet: Musk claimed he had verbal commitments from Saudi investors (detailed in his SEC defense filings, August 2018). Legally, âsecuredâ implies finalized backing, which didnât existâhence the SECâs fraud chargeâbut Musk could argue he wasnât lying, just overconfident in loose assurances. The pattern isnât about verbal agreements being meaningless in general (they can matter in business), but about Musk presenting them as more concrete than they are.

it wasn't even "loose" assurances really, the comments from Musk years later even are that he was very confident the Saudis were in agreement with it going forward, but then re-negged
maybe they did re-neg or maybe Musk misintrepeted something and saying "ok" but not really meaning it is a cultural thing for the Saudis
the only reason Tesla and Musk took the plea deal with SEC was that if it went to court and dragged on, the banks told Musk that they would end the lines of credit that Tesla had at the time, which would basically instantly kill Tesla
so they were forced to take the plea deal even if Musk thought he had a realistic chance of beating it in court
it was basically lawfare from the SEC (not necessarily from the admin at the time, but perhaps some other influences like other car companies lobbying someone etc)
Musk has been steping on a lot of toes for a long time and not just with Tesla

Look heâs not perfect but who other than Musk is even close to getting man to Mars?
If NASA went at it with âtraditionalâ contractors a la Boeing, their timeline would be the circa 2040s with it getting pushed back at LEAST to the 2060s
Bezos just wants bragging rights of landing on the Moon, and the only reason he even has a decent landing architecture now (I say that generously) is because his first serious proposal for HLS was dogshit and even NASA snubbed it.
So yeah until someone else comes along and can offer a workhorse medium-lift rocket and/or a fully reusable TSTO super heavy lift rocket that doesnât cost the american taxpayer a bajillion dollars, Iâm ride or die with musk. Even if he is a cringy little prick at times. Heâs the best chance at the red planet and his company is placing where we SHOULD have been 50 years ago

-Starship launches in a easterly direction
-Booster, during its boostback burn, reverses direction and goes in a westerly direction when returning to launch site
-Ship, having done an orbit, will still be traveling in an easterly direction when it reenters
-assuming Ship is go for catch, it will belly flop just east of the catch tower and like Booster will translate sideways at the last second into the towers arms

The two of them werenât just going to take the soyuz home, fucking up Russiaâs cosmonaut/astronaut schedule, and all SĂśyuzes are built on an as-needed basis so it would quite literally have to be a dedicated âbutch and suniâ soyuz i.e. a rescue mission.
By kicking people off the next Dragon launch they reframed it not as a rescue mission but as a âoh weâll just bring them home on the next Dragon 2 thatâs already heading thereâ
Saying
>they werenât stuck because Soyuz was also an option

Soyuz seats need to be custom-fitted and that's hard to do when the crew are already in space. On top of that it takes two years to build a Soyuz MS capsule, so handing one over to a rescue mission would cause an even larger scheduling fuck up than the station is used to seeing.

As it were the chopsticks and catch rails on Tower A are an obsolete

So Iâve been scratching my brain for a bit trying to think about how you couldnât do humans in a cargo dragon because of the lack of life support but nahh. Itâs just red tape.
Apparently NASA had contentions to keep astronauts in the cargo bay of the shuttle and have it re-enter; they would just have to don an EVA suit and set the coolant temperature down very low. So yeah butch and suni could have likely done a cargo return but iâm sure NASA would only want to do that as a last-resort i.e. a disaster on the station such as a serious debris impact that required immediate bug out.
NASA also considered just bringing them back on then crew dragon that was already there, by placing them below the seats on the cargo couch laying down. Again, probably just red tape and they figured it was a dumb idea when they can just have butch and sunita wait [a hella long time] for a fresh capsule like six months later.

Your incentives calculus is wrong. Our government spends 6 trillion and Biden and the executive branch do not care about wasting money. Only parts of the government with a budget care about how the money is spent. Biden could get NASA 100 million, 200 million, whatever, easily. If a spacex capsule failed and starliner was in service we both know what biden would do you double nigger.
>This is just the latest in a long list that makes MAGAfags think they are experts on something they didn't care about a week ago.
Same on the left. This is the problem with everyone calling elon a liar. Elon made a claim that biden rebuffed him because biden is blackballing elon for political reasons. Elon may be wrong, it's bad that elon is claiming this with no evidence, but there's also no way to disprove elon's claim either, no matter how much you know about how nasa is handling the situation. They are doing whats safe enough and as cheap ass possible, but biden can overrule it. You have to have a recording of a phonecall, an email from somebody with a big mouth, or read biden's mind to know if this happened.
Elon needs to explain his personal evidence and side of the story though, even if he can't prove it. That at least provides more surface to falsify his claim.

I don't consider a lack of evidence to be evidence and Musk is 53yo man lying about fucking videogames so I see him as untrustworthy.

You misunderstand the timeline, not as VP. Before biden endorsed kamala as hostile compliance and fucked the party over, they wanted it to go to convention where Kelly would've been a good pick. If you don't think he was a good pick, name someone who had a better chance. Of course after Kamala was endorsed, it became a suicide race and picking kelly for VP would effectively ruin his career and waste him so he's not usable in 2028. So they picked tampon tim.

Yeah maybe he would have been one of like 8 people at a convention, should they have called it, but he would have been the blue equivalent of someone like rubio or christie or ted cruz. Someone you see making it far but who isnât cut out to make it all the way. Dems donât see him as a serious contender they only see him as, at most, VP material

With how hostile the Biden admin was about everything Musk related, thats a default safe assumption to make. You would have to prove that Biden wasn't political, which is impossible because that evidence doesnt exist. The counter evidence for Biden being political exists in dozens of cases.

No it started when elon made the claim on hannity. I already think the astronaut should'nt call elon a liar unless you can prove elon is a liar. But in turn if elon is accusing biden of corruption he needs to put everything on the table he can.

Again, what the hell do you want. This evidence likely doesnât exist as a concrete email chain or a recorded phone call. Musk claimed his side of the story and itâs more likely than not considering how the previous administration jerked him and his companies around. He has more proof than that brain dead astronaut has by calling Musk a liar despite only being an astronaut and not involved with the decision to the degree musk was

They couldn't exonerate themselves either. They would just say "no we didn't get the astronauts immediately because nasa didn't recommend it" and that would be the end of it. If I think they would've done an expedited rescue for a capsule provider that wasn't elon, there's nothing they can show me to change my mind.

But it doesn't look good for biden either way. Because if that's not true he left astronauts in space for a year to save 100 million dollars or so. I think that would still be unpopular.

The onus would be on Biden admin to prove their decision wasnt political when everything else surrounding SpaceX was. From demoting and removing Kathy Leuders for picking SpaceX to calling Starlink monopoly. Biden admin was specifically targeting SpaceX in all their decision. So Musk has the absolutely right and default judgement on claiming Biden admin decision was political, he has the supporting evidences to back up his claim. Even if we can never get a mind reading device installed on Biden admin, the external circumstantial evidence, the pattern is enough to easily sway toward as having the right judgement/conclusion on Biden admin being politically corrupt when making the decision.

this at least is groping towards the heart of the matter, at least in elon's head: the biden admin gave him unfair treatment, often in ways which were obviously irrational and self-damaging, because they didn't like him. this is obviously true. this much is true. it explains why elon is mad at the biden admin. he has the right.
>So Musk has the absolutely right and default judgement on claiming Biden admin decision was political
however, this is not true. just because the biden admin made a clearly irrational decision designed to fuck over elon in rural broadband, it does not follow that any decisions they make are therefore irrational. with butch and suni, they made a rational decision. that's not the same thing as saying it was the correct decision. it may not have been. but it wasn't an obviously stupid decision either.
i'd be a lot more sympathetic to elon if he stuck to cases where he did legitimately get fucked over instead of making up fake ones because he's mad.

If the "no" order comes top down that would leave a trail because everyone who supposed to do an assessment wouldn't have done an assessment. Or they did an assessment and were denied, which is 1000x worse. They could come forward and say the nasa president said no and that's final. It would be a huge scandal.
Here's what happened. Nasa did an assessment and determined it's safe and the cheapest option to leave the astronauts up there. Maybe biden knows its the right thing to do to get them down by paying more money even if its not a safety issue, but doesn't because he's an asshole that hates elon. We'll never know.

Only the crew know that, sadly astronauts can't speak openly without risking their jobs so if they say they are happy to get more time people assume they are lying but they could actually be happy to get more time.

Your point being? The white house could ask nasa if they could bring the astronauts home with a new ride ASAP, but nasa would already be exploring that option in their assessment and would tell the white house if that was necessary for safety. Again we don't even know how the whitehouse said no to elon because he never described that part of the story. It could've been "no, not right now" or "go kick rocks fag lmao", either of which could be interpreted is go fuck yourself by elon.

What I think likely happened: The NASA administration weighed the options, ideally wanted to return them on Starliner to save face for Boeing and turn the whole thing into a nothingburger, but figured the chance of a possible disaster this close to an election where Billâchosen by Biden and therefore optically a democrat NASA administrationâwould get the blame for Columbia 2.0 when the news cycle was already run amok with boeing planes being dangerous, would absolutely tank Kamala for the public. They weighed the options, didnât even give a shit what the Biden administration said or thought (maybe they consulted with them directly, maybe not; but my point is that this was probably purely a Ballast Bill & Co. consideration and he was rooting for kamala and knew she didnât need bad press) so NASA independent decided the best course of action was to defer it to a Crew Dragon return that would take place AFTER the election.
Itâs a middle ground solution. No one knew who was gonna win the election so kicking it down the road made it a âlater problemâ. Yeah it sucked for boeing optically but it meant they could avoid the phrase ârescue missionâ and instead just say they were shuffling things around to be safe. They figured yeah it sucks to turn Butch and Suniâs planned 8-day stay into a 6-month stay but it was logistically possible and both astronauts were probably briefed and told it was the best thing to do considering all the factors.
It was somewhat foolish of Musk to go on the media tour recently and say âthey were left for dead, they were strandedâ
Yes I think NASA could have chartered a Dragon to pick them up earlier, but they were trying to avoid the optics of them needing to be âsavedâ immediately.

They don't have to ask. Nasa would tell them what needs to be done, and eventually they tell the public. But the whitehouse would want to know regardless because if the astronauts were in danger and something happened the political fallout would be huge. Imagine if the whitehouse told elon no, one of the astronauts gets sick in serious condition, then we found out nasa was told not to consider expedited rescue like some anons are suggesting here. Biden would be FUCKED all because he denied himself information. It makes no sense. If he told elon "no" it was always "no unless nasa tells me I have to use your help"

how do you know this? what did it cost nasa to keep them up there for this long? a few million bucks in overtime pay? i'm sure they wished they could have come down earlier, but that's no basis for running a space agency.
>trying to save face by denying Elon a heroic rescue in a frenzied election cycle
this is another point where the elon apologist case falls apart. how would it have been heroic? their lives weren't in danger. the only danger they were facing was that they were going to be inconvenienced by having to stay on the ISS longer than they wanted. it sounds fun to say "rescue mission" but in practice everyone would have gotten bored with it after a day. i'm sure elon likes to imagine that he would've gotten lauded as butch and suni's savior, but that says more about his own psychology than it does about nasa decision-making.

Did he actually say this or is it just implied? Does it matter when nasa knows the price of a crew dragon? So we're effectively pointing out nasa didn't come to elon to ask if he would do a discount or something? And at this point do I see the biden meddling if nasa did an assessment of leaving the astronauts on the station for the next ride and determined the safety risk was acceptable, and a new capsule would never be cheaper than that, so they didn't ask elon?

if NASA crunched the numbers and realized it was cheaper to just keep them up there for six months versus paying for another dedicated crew dragon, then so be it. Butch and Suni got the short end of the stick, but it was something I suppose they planned for in contention. And then yeah, Musk trying to use this as a cheap political win or whatever on hannity was dumb.
I wonât go as far as to say it was appropriate for an astronaut to call Elon a liar publicly though. Thatâs a separate discussion (and it was very inappropriate, and no wonder Musk called him a retardâthatâs a very elon thing to do lol)

Nasa's decision is irrelevant though. Biden could bring them home sooner at extra cost, and elon is accusing him of not doing it for political reasons. The crime scene is inside biden's mind, not nasa. There's no proof of elon "using the situation for a cheap political win" even if it could be true, that's why you can't call him a liar and back it up. IDGAF if its an astronaut doing it.

The rescheduling happened because you had to delay crew to bring home the astronauts on an existing capsule. If new capsule go up, new capsule go down, it's closer to if butch and sunni just left on the boing.

They still require new suits to ride down on the already scheduled dragon, just with less time pressure as an expedited rescue.

Biden doesn't have a budget, so the cost is nothing to him. I agree the political win of bringing home astronauts is small too, but it's a feel good executive order of not fucking over astronauts and the public would like it, so it would improve chances of re-election no matter how small. Cheapskating on astronauts pushing 60s years old when you whore out for everyone else isn't good optically. I think the age really looks bad. These astronauts have seen this and done that and they don't need a surprise purgatory from friends and family when young astronauts would jump at 9 months on the ISS.
Now if the solution is building a new boing capsule he would sign that shit instantly, but that would also be political so I'm not sure it means much.

What? No, that's not what I'm saying. Just that having a capsule available isn't the be-all end-all because you still need to schedule everything, make the suits, and expend time that you otherwise could use elsewhere because it's just not needed (the suits are needed either way though). More importantly by not sending the capsule on a near-pointless retrieval, you can use it for another mission. The fact that Endurance would just barely maybe have been ready and that fram2 now gets delayed because the new Dragon isn't ready shows that capsule time is surprisingly tight so you'd really rather only fly when absolutely necessary.
>>16595770
Sorry, I don't know what you're trying to say. There was no new capsule at the time, if there was (C213 was probably already under construction, but it still isn't ready so it definitely wasn't then), it'd have helped but that still doesn't necessarily make sending it up to get Butch and Suni the most logical solution. There simply are more factors that go into it.

>U.S. negotiators pressing Kyiv for access to Ukraine's critical minerals have raised the possibility of cutting the country's access to Elon Musk's vital Starlink satellite internet system, three sources familiar with the matter told Reuters.
>Ukraine's continued access to SpaceX-owned Starlink was brought up in discussions between U.S. and Ukrainian officials after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy turned down an initial proposal from U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, the sources said.
>Starlink provides crucial internet connectivity to war-torn Ukraine and its military.
>The issue was raised again on Thursday during meetings between Keith Kellogg, the U.S. special Ukraine envoy, and Zelenskiy, said one of the sources, who was briefed on the talks.
>During the meeting, Ukraine was told it faced imminent shutoff of the service if it did not reach a deal on critical minerals, said the source, who requested anonymity to discuss closed negotiations.
>"Ukraine runs on Starlink. They consider it their North Star," said the source. "Losing Starlink ... would be a massive blow."

Actually consider the political risk. If astronauts fall ill on a normal mission, that's life. If astronauts fall ill on a mishap extended mission and you had the ability to retrieve them, and a political adversary asked you to do it, your risk exposure just went up.
But the biden adminstration probably determined that pissing off boeing and the unions by giving elon/spacex a win was more dangerous.

US intelligence, reconaissance, communication and logistics are unsurpassed.
Remove these and there's no hope ever of anything more than localised counterattacks, and strategic bombing becomes much harder
Remove these + US normalize with russia (which they plan to) and the one hope of russian economic collapse is gone.
At which point every passing day just makes your side weaker in an attrition battle until you sue for peace.

The ISS decommission talk has made me realize the flaw in the old argument about how NASA was wrong to end the shuttle early and have a gap in capability. The flaw is the idea that NASA (or really, Congress) would have properly funded commercial cargo and commercial crew while the shuttle was still flying. You see that situation playing out now where commercial space stations aren't getting nearly enough funding to be viable while the ISS is still active.

"Hey Andreas, Scott, Terryâappreciate your passion for the mission. I get it, youâve all been up there, you know the grind. Letâs clear the air: my point wasnât about you or the astronautsâ commitmentâitâs about timing and decisions. SpaceX offered to bring Butch and Suni back months ago; we had the capability. The delay to March with Crew-9 wasnât our callâit came from higher up, and I believe politics played a role in pushing it past the inauguration. Not saying theyâre âstrandedâ in some dramatic senseâtheyâre pros, doing great work. But could we have moved faster? Yes. Data backs that: Dragonâs been reliable, weâve done multiple returns, and the hardware was ready. Iâm not here to fight astronautsâI respect the hell out of what you do.

Still no official page on the website for Flight 8? Seems like it's a bit late at this point. The other ones were up at least 1-2 weeks in advance.

They haven't even rolled out the booster. But the money in Polymarket says it's likely to happen, so I believe it will happen.

Cruz has been a huge proponent of this annoying bipartisan idea to keep the ISS on life support for eternity. I think he wants to keep jobs at JSC or something.
Hell, one of the main political reasons for Gateway is to keep those mission control jobs in Houston
