Ladies and gentlemen, gather ’round as we delve into the latest episode of “As the Swamp Turns.” In this installment, our former Commander-in-Chief, Joe Biden, showcases his unparalleled ability to prioritize political grudges over the well-being of American heroes. Buckle up; it’s going to be a bumpy ride.
Stranded in Space: The Wilmore and Williams Saga
Imagine signing up for a week-long stint aboard the International Space Station (ISS), only to find yourself stuck there for nine months. Sounds like the plot of a sci-fi thriller, right? Unfortunately for NASA astronauts Barry “Butch” Wilmore and Sunita Williams, this was their reality. Their Boeing Starliner capsule malfunctioned, leaving them stranded in orbit. But fear not! Elon Musk’s SpaceX offered a timely rescue with its Crew Dragon capsule. Problem solved? Not quite.
Biden’s Political Playbook: Delay, Deny, Deflect
Enter President Joe Biden, a man whose political maneuvers make a game of 4D chess look like tic-tac-toe. Instead of greenlighting the swift return of our astronauts, the administration opted to stall the rescue mission. Why, you ask? Well, it appears that accepting Musk’s help might have made a Donald Trump supporter look good—a scenario Biden wanted to avoid at all costs. After all, what’s a few extra months in space compared to the horror of your political opponent gaining a smidgen of positive press?
Elon Musk: The Uninvited Guest at the EV Summit
But wait, there’s more! In a move that screams “petty,” the Biden administration organized an electric vehicle (EV) summit at the White House back in 2021. They invited the who’s who of the auto industry—except, of course, the world’s largest EV manufacturer, Tesla. Why? Because Tesla isn’t unionized, and Biden’s cozy relationship with unions couldn’t possibly be overshadowed by, you know, actual progress in electric vehicles. As White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki so eloquently put it, “These are the three largest employers of the United Auto Workers, so I’ll let you draw your own conclusion.” Translation: “Elon, you’re not on the guest list.”
A Pattern of Pettiness
This isn’t an isolated incident. It’s part of a broader pattern where Biden’s administration lets personal vendettas dictate policy decisions. Remember when Musk wasn’t invited to that EV summit? Or when the administration praised GM and Ford for leading the EV revolution, conveniently ignoring Tesla’s monumental contributions? It’s almost as if acknowledging Musk’s achievements would cause some sort of allergic reaction in the Oval Office.
The Real Cost: American Heroes Left in Limbo
While Biden plays his political games, real people suffer the consequences. Wilmore and Williams remained in space far longer than planned, all because accepting Musk’s help didn’t fit the desired narrative. It’s a sad day when personal grudges take precedence over the safety and well-being of our nation’s astronauts.
Conclusion: Priorities Misaligned
In the grand theater of politics, it’s easy to become desensitized to the pettiness and power plays. But when those games put American lives at risk and undermine our nation’s progress, it’s time to call them out. Biden’s actions serve as a stark reminder that, for some, political narratives outweigh all else—even the safety of our heroes.
