President Biden is under investigation by the Government Accounting Office over accusations that abortion politics played a key part in the Democrat’s decision to change Space Command’s final destination from Alabama to Colorado.
The investigation was requested by Republican U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers of Alabama, who just so happens to also chair the House Armed Services Committee.
Where on Earth would Rogers ever get the idea that abortion politics had anything to do with the location of a military base that was created to protect and operate U.S. space assets?
From MSNBC and cousins at NBC, which operates as mouthpieces for the progressive wing of the Democrat Party and White House cheering squad.
From NBC:
Some defense and congressional officials believe the White House is laying the groundwork to halt plans to move U.S. Space Command’s headquarters to Alabama in part because of concerns about the state’s restrictive abortion law, according to two U.S. officials and one U.S. defense official familiar with the discussions.
“The belief is they are delaying any move because of the abortion issue,” one U.S. official said, referring to the White House.
Another U.S. official said, “This is all about abortion politics.”
Duh.
According to NBC News:
In that statement, Rogers called Biden’s decision to base Space Command permanently in Colorado “politically motivated,” said there was “political manipulation of the selection process,” and argued that the decision was made “to improve his political standing for next year’s reelection.” The White House and National Security Council have denied the allegations.
The military has a lot on its hands these days, what with the Russian invasion of Ukraine, threats by Putin to keep right on rolling through Poland, China hovering over Taiwan like 300-pound Americans at an all-you-can-eat buffet, and ignoring the years-long invasion of our southern border because they’re too busy producing drag shows.
Do we really need to burden our newest branch of the military with abortion presidential politics?
For those not familiar with the role of the GAO, it is an independent, nonpartisan agency of the legislative branch that often audits and investigates how your taxpayer dollars are being spent by government agencies.
We look forward to their findings.
