A Tesla Semi without a trailer suddenly veered off an Interstate into a tree (like so many other Tesla do) and exploded with such an intense 1,000 degree fire, it shut all lanes down.
The crash occurred around 3:15 a.m. near Emigrant Gap where an electric vehicle traveling eastbound at the Laing Road offramp crashed onto the right shoulder and into trees, according to the California Highway Patrol’s incident log. Officer Jason Lyman, a spokesman for the CHP’s Gold Run office, said that only one vehicle was involved and that the driver was not injured. Lyman said the white Tesla Semi truck was without a trailer when it was headed uphill west of Yuba Gap. Investigators were still trying to piece together what led the Tesla to leave the roadway, he said.
Headed uphill without a trailer?
That’s not a typical loss of control for a Semi, as it could just stop under its own weight. Crashed using the offramp? The 3am suggests mistake, but the Tesla Semi also has a sordid history of critical failures like screens going blank and sudden steering loss.
Police say all eastbound traffic was turned around. Westbound traffic was diverted. And they called the Tesla explosion a toxic plume.
American history is full of censorship and denials, as evidenced perhaps best by the KKK controlling the Oklahoma narrative for so long.
The massacre took place over two days in 1921, a long-suppressed episode of racial violence that destroyed a community known as Black Wall Street and ended with as many as 300 Black people killed, thousands of Black residents forced into internment camps overseen by the National Guard and more than 1,200 homes, businesses, schools and churches destroyed.
It’s 2024 and American families are still just now learning what happened 100 years ago to their relatives under extremist violent racism directed and spread by President Woodrow Wilson.
The three are among 11 sets of remains exhumed during the latest excavation in Oaklawn Cemetery, state archaeologist Kary Stackelbeck said Friday.
“Two of those gunshot victims display evidence of munitions from two different weapons,” Stackelbeck said. “The third individual who is a gunshot victim also displays evidence of burning.”
Evidence of burning. The U.S. government is clearly implicated in racist executions, concentration camps, mass graves, and even burning the bodies… a decade before Nazi Germany. Why do you think Hitler openly boasted Henry Ford was his big inspiration, or why Hitler named his personal train the “Amerika”? Nazi Germany looked to the American violent systemic suppression of non-whites as a rough blueprint for genocode.
The Tulsa victims were decorated veterans and successful business people, targeted within just one area in a large coordinated nation-wide terror campaign that had lasted years (e.g. “Red Summer” in nearly 30 cities); to remove and block all prosperity of American Blacks. It was made easy to hide under President Wilson and his toxic nativist “America First” slogan. For example, he had ordered all Blacks segregated and removed from positions of government. He even sent federal troops to round up and murder Black farmers in Arkansas after they organized meetings, so the very act of group speech to represent Black voices was systematically interrupted and criminalized.
President Wilson replied… that he had made “no promises in particular to Negroes [sic], except to do them justice.” […] Many African American employees were downgraded and even fired. Employees who were downgraded were transferred [out of sight].
Perhaps most notable, to those wondering what happened after this KKK President finished his second term in 1921, Warren Harding was elected in a landslide and gave a 10 minute speech June 6 at Lincoln University calling on Americans to educate themselves better and never forget the Tulsa Massacre.
Much is said about the problem of the races, but let me tell you that there is nothing that government can do which is akin to educational work. One of the great difficulties with popular government is that citizenship expects at the hands of government that which it should do for itself. No Government can wave a magical wand and take a race from bondage to citizenship in half a century. All that the Government can do is to afford an opportunity for good citizenship.
The colored race, in order to come into its own, must do the great work itself, in preparing for that participation. Nothing will accomplish so much as educational preparation. I commend the valuable work which this institution is doing in that direction. It is a fine contrast to the unhappy and distressing spectacle that we saw the other day out in one of the Western States. God grant that, in the soberness, the fairness and the justice of this country, we shall never have another spectacle like it.
Spectacle, what spectacle? His point about a magical wand and things taking time is notable. Harding was calling out Tulsa’s massacre in a Presidential address, like it was front of mind for all Americans. Somehow this brief moment in time, the magic of that message, was soon lost within the momentum of Wilson’s KKK empire.
Tulsa officials immediately moved to competely erase the massacre from records, going so far as to build a new white supremacist meeting center (“Klavern”) directly on top of the firebombed Black business and homes.
It was a pattern of long-term and coordinated oppression that was being repeated throughout the country.
A horrible “contagion” had been spread across America after 1915, as thousands of KKK domestic terrorism and disinformation cells sprouted under President Wilson.
Around the same time as the national KKK “poison” network was busy re-writing American history to forget Tulsa, Harding in October gave a speech in Alabama that clarified his thoughts in ending the long problem of American institutionalized racism.
I would say let the black man vote when he is fit to vote: prohibit the white man voting when he unfit to vote. Especially would I appeal to the self-respect of the colored race. I would inculcate in it the wish to improve itself: distinct race, with a heredity, a set of traditions, an array of aspirations all its own. […] I would accent that a black man can not be a white man, and that he does not need and should not aspire to be as much like a white man as possible in order to accomplish the best that is possible for him. He should seek to be, and he should be encouraged to be, the best possible black man, and not the best possible imitation of a white man.
Prohibit the white man voting? By August 1923 he was dead, with no real explanation.
Mrs. Harding refused all entreaties to allow the doctors to conduct an autopsy and instead ordered that her husband be embalmed shortly after his death. Dr. Wilbur was especially frustrated by this refusal because the press and a bereaved public blamed the president’s doctors for incompetence, malpractice and even plots of poisoning the president.
Remember? Never forget? I dare you to find even one American who remembers President Harding’s first name or the year he took office, let alone his speeches on racism and the Tulsa massacre.
The collision occurred shortly before 3:30 a.m. just south of the Newhall Pass and the 14 Freeway, according to the CHP. The officer had responded to a disabled vehicle at the scene and was outside of his patrol car when he was hit by a black Tesla. He was transported to a medical center and was undergoing surgery.
Response from Tesla?
Nothing.
This security risk to public safety should not be underestimated. Tesla’s centrally planned and controlled “AI” robots operating on public roads pose a clear and present national threat.
To put it another way, the latest analysis of Tesla CEO tweets on Twitter suggests that violent attacks on law enforcement, inciting widespread disorder to undermine lawfulness, may be his larger plan.
In Britain, the canary has sung. This summer we have witnessed something new and unprecedented. The billionaire owner of a tech platform publicly confronting an elected leader and using his platform to undermine his authority and incite violence. Britain’s 2024 summer riots were Elon Musk’s trial balloon.
How many more police will be seriously hurt or killed like this before all of them are put in danger at the same time by a button pushed by Elon Musk?
How spaceX successfully designed the world’s first reusable rocket
No. No. And… Nope. The whole history of SpaceX seems to be littered with ugly disinformation.
SpaceX Unveils Plan for World’s First Fully Reusable Rocket
It’s not even remotely true that SpaceX would be first, yet it still floats around as an unchallenged headline.
Apparently they’ve just been throwing more money at propaganda than anyone before, with more marketing and attention seeking fiction to generate funding, not actually solving much else by comparison.
Boeing’s Reusable Aerodynamic Space Vehicle (RASV) developed in the 1970s would have taken off and landed horizontally, like an aircraft, and would have featured the rapid turnaround, ease of maintenance, economy of operation, and abort capability found in the commercial airplane industry. RASV would launch several dozens (if not hundreds) of times, would be able to fly again shortly after landing (in two weeks or even in 24 hours or less), and would use small flight and operational teams.
What made the Clipper Graham [DC-X] unique was that it combined the development of rocket-powered single-stageto-orbit transport with aircraft-like operations and a program approach that featured a modest budget, an accelerated timetable, a small managerial team, and minimal paperwork. No other single-stage-to-orbit project had been run before in this “faster, cheaper, smaller” fashion. Also, the Graham Clipper was the first rocket-powered vehicle, experimental or not, to demonstrate aircraft-like operations.
A full-scale pre-production orbital prototype was planned (DC-Y), meant to be followed by the production DC-1.
Allegedly when SpaceX was created, Elon Musk told Jess Sponable that it was to continue the prior DC-X project success. Sponable had in fact participated in multiple reusable rocket vehicle projects at USAF, DARPA and elsewhere including the X-33 and X-34, just to be clear about the many priors to SpaceX. The point is that a disinformation tweet from Elon Musk might generate millions of views instantly and headlines in papers, all poisoning history, yet an interview a year ago with Jess about real facts has only 115 views so far…
…[DC-X] did the rotation maneuver that SpaceX did so dramatically in recent years in 1996 or 1995… a lot of [our DC-X reusable rocket] data was provided to Elon Musk at SpaceX…
While DC-X was by far the most famous in the mid 1990s — literally entered into a space hall of fame — somehow SpaceX has been allowed to lie. It constantly spread misleading information, without any corrections or shame, as if it was initiating the same concepts and maneuvers at least two decades late in the 2010s.
The first flight of the DC-X from the “Clipper-Site” was on August 18, 1993, at Northrup Strip, now known as White Sands Space Harbor, on White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico. The team actually built a mini-spaceport along the edge of the Northrop Strip. It incorporated all the functions of an operational spaceport. It was a breathtaking vertical launch that left the spectators in attendance in awe. “The DC-X launched vertically, hovered in mid-air at 150 feet, and began to move sideways at a dogtrot. After traveling 350 feet, the onboard global-positioning satellite unit indicated that the DC-X was directly over its landing point. The spacecraft stopped mid-air again and, as the engines throttled back, began its successful vertical landing. Just like Buck Rogers,” said an article from the Ada Joint Program Office of the U.S. Government.
Politics killed the DC-X reusable rocket for various reasons. The concept went dormant until after President Bush mistakenly withdrew from the ABMT and then the idea was restarted in a new arms race… driving DoD innovations into a highly unaccountable private company that has become known for its failures: SpaceX.
Awkward.
Apparently everything Musk does turns out a giant origination scam, stealing ideas and public money to fraudulently redirect investors away from real engineering into his political pockets.
