House Democrats on Wednesday introduced a measure in the 2022 defense budget to eliminate the Space Force.
Rep. Jared Huffman (D., Calif.) led a resolution, cosigned by fellow Democratic representatives Rashida Tlaib (Mich.), Maxine Waters (Calif.), Mark Pocan (Wis.), and Jésus García (Calif.), to "abolish" America's newest military branch. The measure received support from the Koch-funded National Taxpayers Union and radical anti-war groups such as Peace Action and Demand Progress.
The push to defund the Space Force comes as China increasingly threatens the United States. Secretary of the Air Force Frank Kendall said Monday that China is developing means to bombard American targets from space.
China has launched satellites and a space station, threatening American dominance in space. Simulated war drills show that Beijing would likely exploit American vulnerabilities in space as a first move in a takeover of Taiwan.

Trump’s big mistake was not including a Muslim outreach in the Space Force. That would have saved it.
China doesn’t like oversight in orbit.
well that’ll finally get the military interested and involved....
They may even get it passed. Who knows?
I do know the dems want to scrap anything associated with Trump. They might kill Space Force and later come up with their own version.
Dogs and fire hydrants.
I would suggest to those democrats an even trade...
We give up the Space Force, and they dismantle the democratic party, and all associated branches of the party, such as he socialists and progressives and liberals and communists and BLM and Antifa and Facebook and Twitter and Google. Fair trade.
Rep. Jared Huffman... led a resolution, cosigned by fellow Democratic representatives Rashida Tlaib... Maxine Waters... Mark Pocan... and Jésus García... received support from the Koch-funded National Taxpayers Union and radical anti-war groups such as Peace Action and Demand Progress... Secretary of the Air Force Frank Kendall said Monday that China is developing means to bombard American targets from space.
I doubt it will have any weight at all...however the Dems aren’t wasting any time trying to destroy anything that Trump did for this country.
They certainly intend to destroy anything associated with Trump....like Trump did Obamas Legacy. ...This is just more evidence of who is running things behind Biden’s cardboard figure. ....and he thinks he’s fooling everybody.
This is Obamas doing....pay back at everything Trumps done for this country. These people are vile!
They realize one thing....nobody is stopping them. Those working behind the scenes prance out there covid and a host of other things as distractions while they destroy everything great about this country.....and it’s working.
GOP has no gonads nor desire to stop any of it.....they’re too busy protecting their jobs and careers. They knit pick at the small stuff so they can say their working hard at best...the rest of the time they talk talk talk on various TV interviews.
Seems more like they’re using dynamite
There are no trades...they have all the power they want....who’s standing in their way?
Well based on who’s running the Military I would guess they’re in on it.
Shoulda called it Star Fleet.
Don’t waste perfectly good space suits./s
