Biden gets backlash for dismissive response to question on U.S. military’s Space Force

Just The News: White House press secretary Jen Psaki is facing backlash for what congressional Republicans and others consider a dismissive response to a reporter’s question about the future of Space Force – part of the U.S. Armed Forces that protects the country and its allies’ interests in space.

“Wow. Space Force. It’s the plane of today,” Psaki said Tuesday, apparently referring to a question in the first days of the Biden administration about Air Force One’s color scheme.

“It is an interesting question,” Psaki said in response to the reporter’s followup question about the military branch formed under the Trump administration and approved by Congress in 2019. “I am happy to check with our Space Force point of contact. I’m not sure who that is. I will find out and see if we have any update on that.” more

  1. Backlash = negative comments for one news cycle and then it back to hunting down White Supremacists in the Defense Department again.

    You can’t shame the Left because they have no shame.

  2. What a sad little wretch she is. She is definitely not Heather Wold
    and how disappointing to see the lack of professionalism at the beginning of this administration. Heather Wold would never act in such a manor.

  3. From the NYT IN 1999 – This move helped one of Clinton’s friends, Bernie something, that enabled China’s rocket technology ten+ years sooner:
    “The Clinton Administration notified Congress today that it had approved the export of technology to China to permit the launching of a communications satellite aboard a Chinese rocket next month.

    President Clinton said in a letter to Congress that the transfer would not harm national security or significantly improve China’s military capability in space. The President was required under a 1998 law to certify that all such technology exports are in the national interest.”
