Newsom's 100% Tax Threat + $40M CIA Gold Heist | PBD #809

What was said

"All personnel are accounted for and safe. I love the first. It's too early to know the root cause, but we're already working to find it. Very rough day, but we'll rebuild whatever needs to rebuilding and get back to flying. It's worth it."

Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin New Glenn rocket exploded during testing in a massive fireball visible 50 miles away. Aerospace analysts estimate total damage between $250 million and $1 billion including the destroyed rocket, launch pad repairs, and testing equipment. Elon Musk responded supportively on social media rather than criticizing his space competitor, with both billionaires showing unusual alignment.
