Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

As far as I can tell there has never been a rocket with 9 failed launches before SpaceX: Saturn V first launched in 1967, never failed, and carried 10x the payload of existing SpaceX rockets.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”
