Trump Drags Space Command Out of Colorado Just to Score Points

So, Trump’s about to shake things up again—this time with the Space Command headquarters. Remember how Biden decided back in 2023 to keep it in Colorado Springs? Well, Trump’s undoing that and moving it to Huntsville, Alabama. Big switch, right?

Alabama’s governor, Kay Ivey, must be thrilled. She’s been pushing hard for this, and honestly, Huntsville makes sense. It’s called “Rocket City” for a reason—it’s got Redstone Arsenal, NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center, and this huge history with U.S. rockets and missiles. Basically, space is kind of their thing.

The funny part is, the Air Force had already said Huntsville was the best option a few years back. But Biden stuck with Colorado after some generals argued it was better for readiness. Now Trump’s just flipping it back to the original plan.

Of course, this isn’t just about military stuff—it’s also politics and money. Alabama stands to gain big with new jobs and investments, while Colorado’s probably not too happy about losing out. It’s been a tug-of-war between the two states for years, and it looks like Alabama’s finally getting the win.

Pretty wild how something like this can turn into a political football, huh?
