President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that Space Command’s headquarters would move from Colorado to Alabama — capping off a yearslong fight over where the command should be based. While Space Command has been operating out of Peterson Space Force Base in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Trump during his first term pushed for the command’s headquarters to go to Huntsville, Alabama. However, former President Joe Biden announced in 2023 that the command would remain based in Colorado.[snip] "will move to the beautiful locale of a place called Huntsville, Alabama, forever to be known from this point forward as Rocket City,".

How much of this decision was affected by Colorado Springs' sky house prices, crappy roads, rising crime rates and the one no body wants to talk about - Legal Pot ?

Good. More jobs moving to Alabama. We went to Colorado Springs several years ago. Lovely town. Lovely people. What a pity.

Colorado hasn't been much fun since their gun laws and dope laws got passed. I avoid it like Illinois and California.

There's a big NASA presence in Huntsville, so it makes sense to locate the Space Command there. Colorado Springs is nice, but housing there (and most of Colorado's Front Range) is very expensive.

Why was it placed in Colorado in the first place? Colorado is far from all of the space action in the US. Why wasn't it in Huntsville, Houston, or Cape Canaveral when Space Force started? Only the Federal Government would put something in a politically connected place in order to gain votes even though it makes no sense at all.

I could see this coming, as soon as Trump was elected again. As a Colorado resident, I’m all for it. The usual suspects will scream and cry - the Governor and both Senators - but they're all Democraps who have had a hand in ruining the state, especially the homosexual governor who wants to take everybody’s guns. Maybe it will help some people understand that there are serious consequences when you vote for morons. Huntsville is the logical place for Space Command. More rocket scientists, less snow, and the fishing is better.

Reply to #6. Space Commanf as it was called before, was based at Peterson AFB when it was stood up in the early 1980's. The proximity to Magic Mountain (Cheyenne Mountain Complex) which handles all NORAD functions is why. That being said. There's a real big sucking sound coming out of Colorado Springs as those GI's and their money are leaving. Not to mention real estate

Huntsville wasn't the best place to raise a family at the time I was emerging from university; and even though I interviewed for a job with NASA there, I never took them up on the in-person visit. A "cleanup on aisle 7" may be in order there, Mr. President.

WASHINGTON - The United States has ordered the deployment of 10 F-35 fighter jets to a Puerto Rico airfield to conduct operations against drug cartels, sources say, adding more firepower to intensifying U.S. military operations in the Caribbean that are stoking tension with Venezuela. The new deployment comes on top of an already bristling U.S. military presence in the southern Caribbean as President Donald Trump carries out a campaign pledge to crack down on groups he blames for funneling drugs into the United States.

For years, Americans were told their only hope was to roll up their sleeves for Pfizer, Moderna, and the rest of the vaccine cartel. Trillions of dollars flowed into their coffers while dissenting doctors were silenced, families were divided, and countless workers lost their jobs under vaccine mandates. However, a peer-reviewed study out of Germany now shows that a cheap, decades-old nasal spray, azelastine, may do what the so-called ‘miracle’ experimental COVID jabs never accomplished: stop infection.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a deadly warning to drug traffickers Wednesday as he shared details about a U.S. military strike that destroyed a Venezuelan drug boat in the Caribbean, killing 11 suspected Tren de Aragua narco-terrorists. "It's a new day. It's a different day, and… this is an activity the United States is not going to tolerate in our hemisphere," Hegseth said on "Fox & Friends." Venezuela's Minister of Communication and Information Freddy Nanez dismissed video of the attack as AI-generated, an accusation Hegseth dismissed.

One case involved Nathalie Rose Jones, who is accused of posting online threats to assassinate Trump and later repeating those threats directly to Secret Service agents during an interview.

We’ve covered the story extensively—Donald Trump sees the ongoing, unthinkable level of crime and violence that goes on daily in the nation’s capital, decides to do something about it, federalizes the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD), and deploys the National Guard. What happens? Crime plummets to levels not seen in years. If you’re a Democrat, however, you don’t like this for several reasons: 1) It makes President Trump look good, which you can’t stomach even if lives are at stake, and 2) you don’t actually care about crime and don’t mind seeing it continue in our nation’s cities.

The night before, he was also seen at a local ice cream shop wearing a baseball cap that appeared to cover the injury.

Have federal district judges peaked? Democrat judges, especially Biden judges, have been issuing insane rulings trying to stop President Trump from doing pretty much anything. These rulings are so bad that even Justice Kagan, hardly a Trump pal, was baffled by them. I’ve argued that these rulings are literal lawfare, there’s no pretense that these various blocks are even legal, they’re there to force Trump to go to the Supreme Court. And then the Supreme Court, especially its weakest man, Chief Justice Roberts to mull over what the cocktail party set will say and cringe over being accused of being a rubber stamp for Trump.

French President Emmanuel Macron said Thursday that 26 of Ukraine’s allies have pledged to deploy troops as a “reassurance force” for the war-torn country once fighting ends in the conflict with Russia. Macron spoke after a meeting in Paris of the so-called “coalition of the willing,” a group of 35 countries who support Ukraine. He said that 26 of the countries had committed to deploying troops in Ukraine — or to maintaining a presence on land, at sea, or in the air — to help guarantee the country’s security the day after a ceasefire or peace is achieved.

The Joe Biden autopen fiasco isn’t over, and it never went away. It just went dormant for a bit, but we knew something was going to drop, and it has. President Joe Biden signed a trove of clemency petitions before he shuffled out of the White House. There are concerns that he wasn’t cogent or even aware of what he was signing. That issue presented itself with executive orders, as told by Speaker Mike Johnson. The mountain of clemency petitions was navigated by a shoddy chain of command among top Biden staffers, and again, it presented issues about whether Joe Biden was aware of what was going on

In an unprecedented escalation of Islamist persecution, Jamaat-e-Islami — the Bangladeshi ideological offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) — has begun imposing the jizya tax on Hindus and other non-Muslims, openly declaring its intent to replace the country's secular democratic framework with Islamic sharia law. Backed by Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence, and linked to global jihadist networks, including Al Qaeda, Jamaat-e-Islami's move comes just months after a coup that brought Muhammad Yunus to power, triggering a rapid rise in radical Islamic influence. This development threatens not only Bangladesh's fragile democracy but also poses a strategic security risk to South Asia and the wider free world.
