In a stunning move that underscores the growing power of radical environmentalism over national security priorities, the U.S. Air Force has scrapped its groundbreaking plan to partner with SpaceX on a rocket cargo delivery program capable of transporting 100 tons of critical military supplies across the globe in under 90 minutes—all over concerns about a handful of seabirds nesting on a remote Pacific atoll. The mission, which could have revolutionized logistics and transformed America’s strategic response capabilities, was aimed at using rockets to land on Johnston Atoll, a federally controlled site 800 miles from Hawaii. But after environmental activists raised alarms and circulated a petition that barely scratched 4,000 signatures, the Pentagon folded like a lawn chair. Once again, American innovation and readiness take a backseat to woke green politics, even as global threats continue to rise.
