Gotta make sure we throw as many starlink satellites up in LEO as fast as possible so we can destroy the ozone when they burn up in the atmosphere.

👍

Gotta love capitalism, and Eric Berger shilling SpaceX once again.

Brendan Carr is the PoS who took Jimmy Kimmel off the air and seems to love media consolidation. I'm not exactly a big fan.

On this issue, I don't mind him calling out Amazon on their BS. It's a bit reminiscent of Bridenstine trying to put some pressure on commercial crew contractors when he was NASA administrator.
