Business Insider: Top congressman says the White House fired a 'shot across the bow' of the head of the Air Force after they found out she disapproved of the Space Force
* Rumors circulated this month that Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson had run afoul of the Trump administration over the creation of the Space Force.
* But Rep. Mike Rogers says his name was used as part of a "shot across the bow" to Wilson and that she has fallen into line.
* Rogers, a main proponent of the new force, says it's needed to better work with private industry and to counter Russia and China.
Rumors that President Donald Trump was considering firing Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson over resistance to the new Space Force were "a shot across the bow" to the service chief, according to Alabama Republican Rep. Mike Rogers, who has backed the new force.
Several sources told Foreign Policy this month that Trump was weighing Wilson's removal after the midterm elections in response to what the White House viewed as a campaign against the nascent Space Force, the creation of which Trump announced earlier this year.

You guys buy anything the space force has been since rocket science was stolen or taken by the powers of the world .
Rocket science was not stolen by China.
Bill Clinton an exemplar of Democrat Party values gave it to them.
Clinton made it 'legal' by moving compliance with arms control from Treasury to Commerce.

In May 1993, Loral Chairman Bernard Schwartz made his first "soft money" contribution to the Democratic National Committee. By 1998, Schwartz had become the DNC's No. 1 soft-money donor, giving more than $600,000 during the 1995-1996 cycle alone.

FLASHBACK: BILL CLINTON COLLECTED DONATIONS, THEN US MISSILE TECH SHIPPED TO CHINA
We are already way behind Russia and China with regards to space based weapons. Since POTUS has decided we are going to try and compete with the world's dominant powers, a space force is going to be necessary.
Personally I disagree with this course of action. The 300 pound fat man and the 120 pound weakling do not try and mix it up with world class athletes. A better approach is to look for ways to add value to the world's top powers.
You're funny. World power Russia that has a gdp of one of the poorer EU nations? That's so cute :) or China who's gdp is just twice the size of Germany but they need 10 times more people to accomplish that and had to steal trillions on top? You have some amazing dreams, dreamboy comrade
Golly--the same "anon" aka A.S...is back with the usual drift to the past to blame all things on the Democrats and avoid the topic or any topic discussed at this site for this week, this month, or even this year...
in sum, Anon: BORING
Au courant < "Hello Mr. Fancy Pants!"
"You guys buy anything the space force has been since rocket science was stolen or taken by the powers of the world ."
I have corrected Anon 1:36 aka troll
The information was 'given' and stolen
Maybe au courant found the linked articles hard to read due to the truth in them or au current's low lexile score.
Heather Wilson=crazy cat lady govt
Different anon. When will the little parrot learn to distinguish? Also. .just as a hint. .judging by the numbers of anons you disagree with tells me your side is f*cked. Midterms in 2 weeks@ :))
How can I distinguish among a batch of people unwilling to use their names because, well, perhaps because embarrassed at their incivility...I worry not about midterms...I have always been an A student
