>President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday that directed federal agencies to cut or speed up regulatory reviews for commercial rocket launches.

Space exploration is the most important pursuit of mankind. It is the path for spreading sentience beyond our planet. Any news that makes that easier is a win for life.
Reading that starship waited, ready, on the launch pad for a month should be universally infuriating. The multiplier effect of that delay could one day be the difference between us making it or not.
This will help more than SpaceX. It will clean up bureaucracy waste for all the startups competing for niche.

Big win? This sounds more like a disaster waiting to happen. American companies don’t exactly have a reputation for being safe when there isn’t a regulatory body behind them

Speeding up vital drug research approvals at the FDA? Tired.
Greasing the wheels for his billionaire donor? Wired.

Richard Nixon’s head would explode from the sheer level of corruption we are witnessing. This is the most transactional presidency ever; give Trump money and he gives you whatever you want. The swamp is overflowing.

Good. It’s about time that the government allows the private sector do what it does best. Innovate. And, SpaceX is among the best at it.
