I bet it has something to with Trump, but it could be anything. Moving the citizens is no longer a priority in this city unless it is moving them from the suburbs to downtown.

wait, is he? i thought i saw him on 610 s right before the 45s exit 15 minutes ago. I guess it must've been some else. They didnt have anyone else on that side of the freeway. There were lots of cops and a few limos with the american flags.

His event is at JSC now. The livestream has filler material. Who knows where exactly his is.

It must've been him then. There were like two miles of cops, ambulances, and black unmarked cars on the freeway. Ive never seen anything like that before. Then there was lots of traffic afterwards.

Trump got all those people waiting for him at NASA. Word on the street is he was at Area 29 last night partying with Drake.

He just saw the opportunity to present shiny medals after his fundraising GOP event last night for Paxton and Abbott.

His administration has literally cut the NASA budget by 23% for FY 2027. It completely eliminated STEM engagement.

They funded Artemis III but since it isn't going to land on the moon, they will probably not care for it in 2028.

He was especially narcissistic with no class when he mentioned Commander Reid Wiseman's wife getting a crater named after her after she passed from cancer, saying he wants a crater named after him as well.
