  1. Baby murder should never be easy

  2. Space Command shouldn't be headquartered in a state where teeth and shoes are optional anyway.

  3. Move it to a Blue State like California. Or New Mexico.

  4. You could say the transition is menopause.

  5. Move on gun restrictions. Repub party so pro life. This is great example of the Law of Opposites. Day after day

  6. Putting military assets in the hands of right wing red state terrorists doesn't seem very smart.

  7. No space command in Colorado! We don’t want you, just your money

  8. They've discovered yet another reason to not go to Alabama.

  9. Why would military families want to move to Alabama anyway? NASA families require good schools at the very least, and Alabama public schools are among the worst.
    Sounds as though Trump was being vindictive against the Joint Chiefs for refusing to be his 4th of July honor guard and other signs of dislike.

  10. GOOD. THIS IS WHAT FIGHTING BACK LOOKS LIKE. ✊🏻

  11. This country is failing on so many levels

  12. Nobody at all:

    Alabamas space program: We's gonna put a cow in that ther rocket and see if it makes it to tha moon!

  13. Space command needs to be back in Colorado. Trump only did this out of spite.

  14. Fantastic. A state that is adamantly against science shouldn't be profiting off of science. It's absurd.

  15. Colorado sounds mu ch better , yet the cost of living is high. But f@#k Alabama and all these misogynistic states. Democrats are very flawed and both play culture wars, but they are far better than Republicans. Keep it blue yall.

  16. I do DoD space work. I sure wouldn't move to Alabama.

  17. I don't know why anybody would willingly chose to have anything to do with Alabama…

  18. Ridiculous!! Alabma have a terrific space science base. And they will ditch that because of abortion, which can be obtained by millions of excuses? That's a ridiculous!!

  19. That’s going to be one messed up gene pool 🧬

    when your cousin gets you in trouble.

  20. Awww ! More consequences for Maga ! Hopefully, they ALL move to Russia, they will be happier! The Russian trolls and Republicans say the same things

  21. Hit ‘‘em where it hurts, their pockets.

  22. Anti abortion laws hurt women

  23. No one with an IQ over single digits lives In Alabama,so why have the headquarters where no intelligent people want to live.

  24. The financial fallout from the abortion issue will haunt red states for generations.

  25. Good, no one should do business in Alabama or any other red state.

  26. Go fasc lose cash…

  27. I live in Alabama and I say "Alabama is probably the most backassward state there is."

  28. Well that’s just wonderful! Way to go Alabama! You got it all going on!

  29. Good New Mexico better choice

  30. It's not just dependents who would be impacted. We have so many amazing, educated and highly qualified women in the ranks of all branches of service. They want their reproductive decisions made by themselves and their doctors, not the state where they happen to be stationed at.

  31. Do not invest in red states! They are anti human rights

  32. Jamea Jonae Harris' existence was used as fuel to score points on a basketball team. And Alabama fans joined that bball player in prancing. Imagine the Indians, black people, latinos, white women…all with extraordinary talent…who would want to work at the Space Force facility in Alabama. Would Gov. Ivey and the local mayors protect their basic rights?
