That part did seem weird to me. It’s one thing to claim the launches are subject to California’s decision making because they’re private. But it’s another thing to only make these assertions based on the content of someone’s speech or political affiliation. That seems blatantly unconstitutional. But it also seems normal, in a way, given today’s political divisiveness. For example the Biden administration (DOJ) suing SpaceX, a company with regulated military grade technology, over a lack of refugee hiring or the FCC’s denial of spectrum for Starlink.
