(New York Post) – President Trump announced Tuesday that US Space Command is relocating to Alabama after former President Joe Biden canceled plans to build Space Force’s headquarters in the Southern state.
“I am thrilled to report that the US Space Command headquarters will move to the beautiful locale of a place called Huntsville, Alabama — forever to be known from this point forward as Rocket City,” Trump said in the Oval Office, referring to a nickname already used by the city — the home of NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center.
“This decision will help America defend and dominate the high frontier, as they call it,” Trump said, confirming Space Command’s move from Colorado Springs, Colo.
“We initially selected Huntsville for the SPACECOM headquarters, yet those plans were wrongfully obstructed by the Biden administration, and as you know, they moved them to a different locale and today, we’re moving forward with what we want to do,” Trump said.
The new SPACECOM HQ will also help develop America’s “Golden Dome” integrated missile defense program, the president announced.
Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.), also present in the Oval Office, asserted that the Alabama location would save taxpayers $480 million.

Trump confirmed “we’re going in” when asked about sending NG troops into Chicago.
Trump says “I didn’t say when we are going in, [but] we’re going in”.
Unless Pritzker/Johnson cooperate, this will require declaring a national emergency and invoking the Insurrection Act.

.@POTUS is right: Too Late Powell is too late.
The longer Powell sits on his hands and refuses to drop interest rates, the longer Americans will be priced out of the American Dream of homeownership. pic.twitter.com/MCwtwsvTd9
