So the challenger crew might have been conscious when they hit the ocean:

>The crew cabin was made of particularly robust reinforced aluminum and detached in one piece from the rest of the orbiter.[30] At the time of separation, the maximum acceleration is estimated to have been between 12 and 20 g. During vehicle breakup, the cabin detached in one piece and slowly tumbled into a ballistic arc. Within two seconds after breakup the cabin had dropped below 4 g, and was in free fall within 10 seconds. The forces involved at this stage were probably insufficient to cause major injury to the crew.[25]

>At least some of the crew were alive and at least briefly conscious after the breakup, as three of the four recovered Personal Egress Air Packs (PEAPs) on the flight deck were found to have been activated.[25] PEAPs were activated for Smith[31] and two unidentified crewmembers, but not for Scobee.[25] The PEAPs were not intended for in-flight use, and the astronauts never trained with them for an in-flight emergency. The location of Smith's activation switch, on the back side of his seat, indicated that either Resnik or Onizuka likely activated it for him. Investigators found their remaining unused air supply consistent with the expected consumption during the post-breakup trajectory.[31]:245–247

Look I doubt it has anything to do with Biden or his administration. I fucking hate soppy joe, but as far as I know the FAA didn't reshuffle during the transition of power. And there is likely a high chance that Elon will send Shotwell to personally meet with the FAA and the state of Texas to secure the same status as Wallops/Cape Canaveral etc. etc. They are likely just waiting to finalize their plans and build the oil tankers and whatnot so they can present their final launch architecture and get approval

Holy fucking kek, week 2 of Biden's America. Trump was literally doing the opposite and passing EO's barring more and more Chinese from entry.

Notice how the current opposition party has not taken any of the WH's EO's to court like the previous 4 years. Uniparty is set to stay.

The Party must be destroyed, don't let people pretend there's two and ridicule them viciously if they try weaseling out of reality with some "muh side!" cope.

They won't of course, they're doing exactly what they are there for: pretending to put up a struggle then rolling over like the heel in professional wrestling.

Biden hasn't done any of the really spicy immigration stuff yet that he talked about, like allowing all the asylum seekers in.

The worst is the travel ban being rescinded, I think the borders are largely closed for non-essential travel for the meantime anyways. I hope somebody finds standing to sue.
I think Chris Russo and his friends are suing over the equity and critical race theory crap.
Also there's a TX lawsuit over DACA that could straight up finally abolish that illegal program, maybe AG's are waiting on that.
