Given that DHS is collecting info on Reddit, I would assume that "domestic terrorists" (i.e. registered Democrats) will be ending up in old KMarts converted into concentration camps by 2H 2028 at the latest.
“The reversal targets the 2009 “endangerment finding,” which concluded that six greenhouse gases pose a threat to public health and welfare. The finding provided the legal underpinning for the Environmental Protection Agency’s climate rules, which limited emissions from power plants and tightened fuel-economy standards for vehicles under the Clean Air Act.”
Only 8% have left. That's not enough. Even the NYT reports that "fantatical conspiracy theories" are being investigated, and that Democrats and Trump's opponents are being targeted.
If so, my first guess would be heat shielding. Test-retry cycles are much slower when launch windows are 2 years apart.
My second guess would be sabatier machines, which are vital for Mars and pointless on the Moon, and where I've failed to notice even a hint of progress.
we know people can exist and be productive in orbit for extended periods.
we know people can make it to the moon remain for a time, and perform tasks, then return.
energy generation, probably has to be nuclear, structures require low G engineering.
we know "robots" can make it to mars and function for extended periods.
very probably, there are locations that provide apparent resources required for extended human occupancy, and feasibility of development must be established.
energy generation may be wind turbine, or some type of triboelectric harvesting of electric discharges.
in both cases, its probably a good plan to pre emptively develop chattels of occupation. the idea of constructing self sufficient fabrication and launch facilities on the moon should be seriously examined.
To make Mars habitation sustainable you're going to need to launch hundreds of Starships every launch window. Some have speculated that it will take as many as 40 launches to fuel one Starship in orbit. The launch window lasts approximately 780 days so ~5 launches per day just for refueling - if something goes wrong you lose months.
For the moon you still have the refueling problem but you don't need to ship nearly as much to make a moon presence sustainable. You're not constrained by launch windows and there will be multiple providers able to plug shortfalls in the coming decades (I'm not sure the same can be said about Mars).
It's important for news orgs to name the actor accurately these days. Trump himself is acting outside of constitution, law and accountability. Many officials in his administration are freelancing, doing their own thing outside of law and without discussion or counsel.
The ofac is a list under the dept of Treasury. Bessent. So, it's one of those cases where the difference doesn't exist, if you say here Trump or "The project 2025 cabal" it's the same.
This kind of article is repetitious. 15 or 20 years ago, it might be interesting or relevant, but by now we know for a fact that "Word" or Adobe Photoshop or Excel or heaven help us PowerPoint can't be replaced, the business world and the legal system can't function without exactly and precisely those apps. It's always the same.
