A Model Y driver started experiencing a medical emergency with chest pain mid-drive & called his son.
His son then remotely rerouted the car – which had FSD Supervised enabled – to the nearest hospital & let them know the vehicle was en route. ER staff were standing by on arrival.
Doctors later confirmed the quick reroute likely saved his life.

“You have thousands of moments ahead of you. The important thing isn’t to get them all right; it’s to find a way to keep moving forward.”

If she wasn’t working for Elon Gwynne Shotwell would be hailed as an incredible success story and the most powerful woman in aerospace.
Instead it’s radio silence from the media

.@BernieSanders , it is a time to celebrate. @elonmusk has created enormous value for society by building @SpaceX, driving down the cost of rocket launches and creating a global satellite communication network that has brought high speed, low-cost internet and communication access to hundreds of millions and eventually billions of people along with critical advantages for our military and our nation’s defense.
SpaceX and its technologies will cause an acceleration in the growth of wages and wealth creation globally, including in some of the poorest communities in the U.S. and around the world.
Access to low-cost, high speed communications everywhere will allow children around the world to be educated, families to build businesses, and life-saving medical knowledge and care to be available everywhere.
SpaceX will materially bring down the cost of compute, advancing AI and humanity.
Meanwhile, 4,000 SpaceX employees yesterday became millionaires, including hourly wage employees who you claim you are trying to help.
The Elon Musks of the world drive growth, global GDP, and provide access to goods and services at lower cost that would otherwise not exist.
Elon’s nominal trillionaire status is due to his ownership of SpaceX, Tesla, Neuralink, the Boring Company and his other initiatives that have brought new technologies that improve our everyday lives.
Elon is not sitting on a trillion dollar pile of cash, jewelry and gold. He is using his controlling stakes in his companies to advance mankind. Elon’s companies don’t pay dividends. They reinvest all of their capital to accelerate innovation and value creation.
Elon is working 24/7 for all of us. He deserves respect and appreciation, not smears.
Bernie, your socialism would never allow a SpaceX to be built. Socialism has only proven to impoverish mankind and lead to death and destruction.
We need to create the conditions for more SpaceXs to be built, not attack the great entrepreneurs who are helping to advance our country.

J.P. Morgan + SpaceX= Largest IPO
Congratulations to the @spaceX team on this milestone, we were proud to serve as a lead bookrunner on the transaction.

A man working as a welder at SpaceX for $28 an hour has just become a millionaire.
Juan Hernandez, who came from Mexico, welded rockets for SpaceX at $28 an hour.
SpaceX gave him $10,000 in stock when he went full time in 2015, and he bought more with every paycheck for 10 years.
$SPCX is now trading at $167, making his shares worth over $1 million.

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🇺🇸

Mostly true. What matters is securing the long-term future of consciousness, both on Earth and other heavenly bodies.
We cannot just focus on Earth, because there are irreducible external (eg massive meteor) and internal (eg global nuclear war) cataclysmic risks.
The Moon is faster to make self-growing, but is more susceptible to problems on Earth. Mars will take longer to make self-growing, because it is so hard to reach, but is more secure from Earth disasters for that same reason.
Both the Moon and Mars should have self-growing civilizations. Making this happen is the prime directive of SpaceX.
Former SpaceX astronaut Garrett Reisman reveals the single prism Elon Musk runs every major decision through
"He measures pretty much every major decision by whether or not it brings the day when we have a self-sustainable colony on Mars sooner or later"
"That's the prism by which he makes every single decision he makes"
"He's got an idea and he'll keep pushing, and he gives us aggressive timelines that we have to work to"
"We work really hard to try to meet them. It's hard when you're doing stuff that's this complicated to predict exactly how long it's going to take"
"We end up falling a little bit behind, but we do our best"

It was an honor to visit your husband’s grave today on your behalf, and to pay my respects. It was wonderful to see the beautiful flowers representing many others who did the same. Our nation owes a debt of gratitude to those who made the ultimate sacrifice, and to the loved ones they left behind. Thank you for your service and sacrifice @SharrellAnne2 🙏🏽

💥Explosive! We found out who she is, too!
At the CCP's state banquet honoring President Trump @realDonaldTrump, standing next to Elon Musk @elonmusk was Cheng Cheng (程诚), a member of the Chinese Communist Party, a battalion commander in the PLA Honor Guard Ceremonial Brigade with the rank of major, a deputy to the 13th and 14th National People’s Congresses, and one of China’s first female honor guards.
She previously served as commander of the female honor guard unit, received a First-Class Merit citation, and was awarded the title of “National March 8 Red Banner Holder.”
Born in December 1986 in Weifang, Shandong Province, Cheng enlisted in the military at the age of 18 in 2004. She originally served as a communications soldier in the Second Artillery Corps before later entering the Bethune Military Medical College (now the Bethune Medical NCO School) to study nursing.
In 2008, she was selected to lead the female formation in the military parade marking the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China.
However, after growing 1.8 centimeters taller during training, she was regretfully reassigned as a backup member.
In 2012, she was selected into the PLA Honor Guard Ceremonial Brigade. Beginning in 2014, she served as commander of the female unit, leading the formation during its first appearance in a state diplomatic ceremony on May 12, 2014, and later in the 2015 military parade commemorating the 70th anniversary of victory in World War II, where she served at the front of a mixed formation.
Cheng participated in building and standardizing China’s female honor guard system. She helped draft manuals and operational standards, including the Female Honor Guard Mission Procedures Manual and the Female Honor Guard Mission Standards. She has led her unit in more than 200 state-level ceremonial missions, including welcoming foreign heads of state, the 70th National Day military parade, and the centennial celebration of the Chinese Communist Party.
She has been elected for two consecutive terms as a deputy to the National People’s Congress since 2018, focusing on issues such as military personnel training and veterans’ resettlement. Her unit has also received multiple honors, including the title of “National March 8 Red Banner Collective.”
As of 2026, Cheng remains a battalion commander in the PLA Honor Guard Ceremonial Brigade and continues to serve on the front lines of training and major national ceremonial missions. She is regarded as the first female honor guard commander in PLA history and a key figure in institutionalizing China’s female honor guard system.
The PLA Honor Guard Ceremonial Brigade, under the Beijing Garrison Command, is responsible for China’s highest-level state ceremonial duties. As its first female unit commander and current battalion-level officer, Cheng Cheng represents a milestone breakthrough for women in the Chinese military honor guard system.
The above introduction is based on official Chinese Communist Party sources.
The introduction in this video comes from Baidu Baike; I just added English subtitles to it.
Who are they, really?
The photos of them in uniform were reportedly discovered by Chinese netizens and are now being widely circulated on Chinese social media.
I cannot verify or disprove the authenticity of these photos. I asked Grok, which told me these are not AI-generated, but could have possible minor Photoshop/editing (slight smoothing or color correction, which are common in official photos, no major inconsistencies).
