i hate April Fools’ Day as much as i love Heated Rivalry. and that’s saying something.

I know people at the apex of the Artemis program. The sort of people you could say credibly are “in charge of it”. They are some of the very best people we have left in government. You should be very proud of them. Know that they hear you and see you and appreciate everything you might say. They have red lines where they would walk out and leave their jobs if asked to do something wrong. What they are trying to do is make you proud of your country. To inspire our kids to keep dreaming. 🚀🌍🌔❤️♾️
