The Bulwark Podcast - Franklin Foer: Elon, the Man Who Ate NASA

The rise of Elon—and why he is still involved with our government—has everything to do with the dimming of America's one-time crown jewel, NASA. We are now dependent on his rockets and his satellites because Obama and the U.S. government saved SpaceX. Of course, Elon's hypocrisy knows no bounds, because when he had the power, he quickly worked to dismantle the very same government that came to his rescue. The Atlantic's Franklin Foer explains how NASA engineered its own decline, as well as Elon's prophecy about becoming the engineer savior who colonizes Mars. Plus, Zelensky's giant misstep on corruption, and how humanitarian groups need to get back into Gaza to flood it with food.

Frank Foer joins Tim Miller.

The Daily Signal - Virginia GOP Faces Tough August Forecasts: One Leader Weighs In

With August about to begin the long-time Virginia election watchers say that this is when “it gets real.” The Washington Examiner just published election predictions made by the organization State Navigate that reported that by their estimates each Democrat candidate would win the statewide races by a minimum of 8 percent and that Lt Gov Winsome Sears would lose by 11. Moreover, they predict that the Democratic party will flip 7 seats in the House of Delegates. Flipping it to a GOP majority had been a key effort of the Republican Party leadership so that they could block the “Day Of” Abortion constitutional amendment.


We sat down with one leader that is spending his time and campaign contributions on other candidates this year, Tom Garrett of Virginia’s 56th district (Fluvanna, Louisa, Goochland) and asked him if the race had really turned so badly.

This morning's GDP figure showed that the U.S. economy grew at an annual rate of 3% in Q2 — a higher-than-expected rebound. But there's more than meets the eye. "The headline number is showing the volatility in trade and imports and exports, but the numbers underneath are showing very much a slow slowing of the U.S. economy," says economist Kathryn Anne Edwards. We'll discuss. And later: South African entrepreneurs are bringing power generation within reach to lower-income families and small businesses.
