Thats why hes moving them out of Colorado. That state is all about wasting tax payer $$ on illegal aliens. Alabama doesn't play that game.

How much will this cost? Is this a blue to red state move to WASTE money? And the point of DOGE was just to get our private data, right?

Sort of, the selection process decided in Jan 2021 that Redstone was the best location for it. There were accusations of favoritism by the Trump Administration so the DOD redid the process coming to the same conclusion in May 2022. But in July 2023 the Space Force canceled the move.

Alabama has a long history in the space program, nearly every manned NASA mission involved engineering from those at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Alabama, which is one the Army's Redstone Arsenal. And then you have the Redstone Arsenal which predates NASA's involvement in space flight, in fact the first US ballistic missile was called the Redstone named for where it was which. NASA used it as the basis for the Mercury-Redstone rocket which launched the first Americans into space.

Also has a long and illustrious history of traitorous Confederate loving and Anti-American sentiment.
Colorado doesn’t.
Should the military put a base in a state with an history of anti-American sympathies or a red-blooded Constitution loving state like Colorado?
I say USA.

Redstone Arsenal is already a major military base. US Space Command will just be one of the many tenant units at the base. In fact former Confederate states have most of the US's major military bases.

See this is the result of the generations of inbreeding. You thinking Petersen SFB hasn’t been active since the 1940s: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peterson_Space_Force_Base
Or that it would be one of 75 tenants at Redstone. I’d link that too but I’m tired of waking you like a dog
You also conveniently skipped over the traitorous part. Exactly the Anti-American shit I’d expect from an Alabaman.

That's because you're an idiot.
You won't find a larger collection of literal rocket scientists than in Alabama unless you're looking at a JPL or SpaceX facility.
