Biden Insists the Border Isn't in Crisis. He Also Wants NASA to Stop Exploring Space to Help Deal With It - PJ Media

The federal employees are the spine of the mostly private-sector agency that puts rockets and people in space and conducts research on aeronautics.

That’s in the name — National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

If any of the federal staff had been asked to volunteer for border duty back when I was at Hubble, all of us contractors would’ve heard about it.

The Biden administration on day one irresponsibly threw the border wide open.

The federal government is so overwhelmed it’s now seeking to take its space program staff, managers, and the odd astronauts and rocket scientists off their important work in one of the smallest federal agencies to deal with this unfolding disaster on the border.

It’s trying to blame Trump now, but the migrants aren’t wearing MAGA hats.

NASA facilities aren’t designed for that.

They’re either designed for rocket research and actual launches, they’re designed for building satellites in clean rooms, they’re designed for aeronautical or other research, or they’re academic and office buildings.

NASA people aren’t designed for this either.

They’re program staff and managers and top-level physicists and the like.

Biden’s now trying to pull NASA people out of working on space and bleeding-edge research — their core mission, and one that’s as important as ever with China on the rise — to deal with the border chaos that he created out of stupidity and spite.
