Why the US Space Command HQ Remains in Colorado Springs | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

President Joe Biden, while on vacation, made a controversial decision to select not Huntsville, Alabama, but instead Colorado Springs, Colorado as the U.S. Space Command headquarters. This comes after former President Trump selected the former as the headquarters’ new location. Proponents say moving the headquarters to Alabama now would have hurt military readiness. But Alabama lawmakers say Huntsville topped the list of places for the headquarters to go, and there are accusations one Senator’s hold on Pentagon promotions over its abortion policy led to the decision. Some believe the one in question is Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville who holds up the administration’s Pentagon promotions over using tax dollars toward troops’ abortions. Tuberville responded, through a tweet, stating that President Biden has “politicized our military, destroyed our recruiting, misused our tax dollars for their extremist social agenda, and now they are putting space command headquarters in a location that didn’t even make the top three.” EWTN News Nightly White House Correspondent, Owen Jensen, reports.
