Following the end of the Trump administration and the Biden administration's announcement that they were not reevaluating its establishment, less critical and more analytical coverage of the Space Force has arisen.

Really cool that liberals and the media concluded that the SF was a useless joke because Brumpf Cheeto was in office. Then immediately after he left, they concluded that it was a super duper serious and necessary addition to the military and if you laugh at it then you're a kremlin bot.
