“Joe Biden praises today's historic SpaceX launch: ‘Today, in lifting our ambitions and our imaginations to the heavens, the United States has once more reshaped the future of space travel.’ INTERPRETATION: Never mind that I supported Obama in selling us out to Russia.
It’s a good Biden was not in office or the space program would not be there as when he was Vice President for 8 years
Your praise means nothing as a Democratic Mob puppet. Not even a leader, just a puppet pushing the Democratic Mob agenda. Pitiful!!!

Thank you for posting this - President Biden can't get here soon enought!
Biden forgot that he was part of the administration that canceled the constellation program.
