Love you but @ChrisCuomo you are completely wrong tonight about @elonmusk and college. He received two BS degrees at Univ. of Pennsylvania in 1997 (earned in 1995) and then was accepted to Stanford but didn't enroll. DO YOUR RESEARCH @ChrisCuomo !!!

Earlier today, a letter from Pope Leo XIV arrived at Rate Field. Go White Sox!

A beautiful performance of “America The Beautiful” from The Philadelphia Boys Choir and Chorale 🇺🇸🦅
Happy 4th of July!

They knew. It was actually their idea to have a call.

Most surreal moment of our lives. Filmed the whole call, will post the video later.
So, @elonmusk, I officially, belatedly, retract this post and apologize because 1) I was working at CCAFS in media covering the first Falcon successfully landed, so I witnessed in person and; 2) there's no way I can afford that much whisky!!! Congrats on the IPO for sure.
I uploaded a photo of my cat Rainbow to Gemini Omni and asked it to created a video of my cat prancing through Tulips. It created this. The cat looks almost exactly like mine!

Thanks to everyone who has been interacting with me on here the past several days. I appreciate. We all love spaceflight and have hopes for the future. I'm working hard in my business to help make hopes reality and it's very humbling to a now-aging GenX-er who still has hope.

Thank you for being here today. Your support means a lot to the whole team. We will get back to flight, and we will get to the Moon. Gradatim Ferociter.
We go where we need to be, and today that was @NASAKennedy.
Some of my senior engineers and I spent time at @blueorigin with @JeffBezos and @davill, speaking with the workforce and seeing the damage at LC-36 firsthand. I appreciated the opportunity to hear directly from those working through the aftermath and better understand the challenges ahead.
There is a lot of work to do, but this is exactly why people choose careers in aerospace, whether at NASA, Blue Origin, or across the industry. The talent in this field thrives under pressure and performs at its best when solving the toughest problems.
We have been saying for months at NASA that we are not going to sit on our hands and wait for the capabilities necessary to achieve the nation’s most pressing objectives. We are going to take an active role alongside our partners, just as we did in the 1960s, to overcome setbacks, remove obstacles, and deliver the intended outcomes.
@NASA is committed to helping the Blue team recover, continue to advance their lunar lander and get New Glenn back to launching as soon as safely possible.
America’s greatest achievements in space were never the result of avoiding setbacks. They came from overcoming them. We have done it before, and we will do it again🇺🇸
The 2026 Chicago White Sox are starting to remind me of the 1990 team and that's a good thing for fans like me.
My RocketLab stock didn't get hit nearly as badly today as I feared last night. After all, daddy needs dollars for retirement!
