Ranking member of the House Armed Services Committee has called on the White House press secretary to "immediately apologize" for her response to a Space Force question during a Tuesday press briefing.

Every time politicians want to look like they're doing something, they create a new department, or agency, or commission, or blue ribbon panel. But there's no reason the current bureaucracy can't build a better missile.
Son in Law in in the SF. He was Air Force Intelligence, and his job didnt really change.
Much of what they do in the SF was already in place under the Air Force previously.
Whats scary is we could be toast tomorrow.
Biden’s Pentagon is too busy worrying about genders, wokeness and rooting out Trump supporters to be concerned with a currently unstoppable Chinese nuclear threat. Add to that totally senile Biden is Commander in Chief and has the nuclear codes
