Breaking news, apparently for political reasons, Biden refused Musk's offer to rescue the astronauts that are stranded on the International space station for political reasons of not wanting to make a Trump supporter into a hero.







NEW: Astronaut says Elon Musk is “absolutely factual” after a WaPo reporter asked him about how Musk said his rescue efforts were denied for political reasons.Musk was condemned by the media for making the comment but it appears the astronauts agree.
Reporter:
“Elon Musk has said that he made the offer to bring you guys back earlier and that it was denied. My first question is, is that true?”
Barry Wilmore:
“I can only say that Mr. Musk, what he says is absolutely factual…”
The astronauts were only supposed to be in space for 8 days.
They have been there for 9 months.Musk had offered to retrieve them on his SpaceX capsule after the Boeing one started having problems. He was denied by the Biden admin.During his recent episode with Joe Rogan, Musk said the Biden admin denied his request for political reasons because they didn’t want to hurt Kamala’s campaign.
 
NASA has now confirmed that Biden, for political reasons, rejected the offer from Musk to rescue the astronauts.

NASA insider JEFF NOSANOV blows the whistle on the space agency's plot to sabotage Elon Musk's rescue mission... at the cost of our stranded astronauts

The truth is out there.
Just don’t expect to hear it from NASA.
Nearly everyone on Earth seems desperate to know how the true condition of American astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams whose 8-day mission to the International Space Station has turned into a nearly 9-month zero-gravity slog.
Back in June, they launched onboard Boeing's new Starliner crew capsule to the ISS, but after the capsule encountered a cascade of thruster issues and helium leaks, NASA decided it was too risky to use the vessel to return them to Earth.
Wilmore and Williams have been stuck ever since. But ask NASA about what’s happening and you’ll hear the same dubious answer over and again - that Wilmore and Williams are not ‘stranded’ and that they are, in fact, grateful to be floating through space, more than 250 miles above their families, for a total of 274 days.
. . .​
It was stunning to hear NASA’s Wilmore – a former Navy test pilot with three spaceflights under his belt – on Tuesday seemingly confirming SpaceX founder Elon Musk’s claim that the astronauts could have already been rescued had the mission not been blocked by Joe Biden’s White House.

'We offered to bring them back early, but the offer was rejected by the Biden administration,’ Musk said Monday on Joe Rogan's podcast.
The following day, Wilmore appeared to support Musk when asked about the claim, 'I can only say that Mr. Musk, what he says, is absolutely factual.'
Wilmore’s teenage daughter, Daryn, was even more emphatic in a recently resurfaced social media post from February: 'There's a lot of politics, there's a lot of things that I'm not at liberty to say... but there's been issues. There's been negligence. And that's the reason why this has just kept getting delayed.'
