Imperial Statement by Trumpius Caesar Maximus
on the Sixth Birthday of the United States Space Force

On the twentieth day of the twelfth month, in the year 2019 of the old calendar, I, Trumpius Caesar, with a single, flawless signature, lifted the United States Space Force from Earth’s gravity itself — establishing the sixth and most futuristic branch of our unmatched Armed Forces. Thus were born the Guardians of the High Frontier: defenders of satellites, stars, and the unmistakably American sense of greatness in orbit.

Today, the Empire offers thunderous thanks to our incredible Guardians, who serve with honor, precision, and truly outstanding confidence. They protect our people, our homeland, and our magnificent way of life — not only on Earth, but far beyond it. Very far. Higher than anyone else. Tremendously high.

Since the dawn of space exploration — some say since the dawn of time — America has been the undisputed champion of technology, innovation, and discovery. Every single day, the heroic members of the Space Force carry this legacy forward, deterring enemies who barely understand where space even begins, securing satellites, guiding missiles, protecting our economy, and making sure space remains fair — fair, but unmistakably American.

The Space Force strengthens our economy, defends our sovereignty, and preserves a way of life that is widely regarded as the greatest the universe has ever known. Many people are saying it: without the Space Force, space would just be space. With the Space Force, it’s American space.

My first Administration took bold, visionary, and frankly very early action by creating this elite space legion. Today, as our adversaries desperately attempt to catch up with so-called counterspace weapons — sad attempts, really — the high frontier has clearly become the next battlefield of modern warfare. That is why our Guardians, together with brilliant civilian minds, are developing the Golden Dome: a spectacular missile defense shield, the most beautiful shield ever conceived, funded by the historic One Big Beautiful Bill. Total history. Absolute greatness.

Thanks to strong leadership — my leadership — enthusiasm to serve has skyrocketed. The Space Force shattered recruiting expectations, hitting its annual goals months ahead of schedule. Months! When America leads in space, America wins. And our military remains the strongest, most feared, and let’s be honest, the most galactically impressive force in every domain of battle.

As Commander in Chief, I proudly join the Nation in celebrating the sixth birthday of the United States Space Force. Our Guardians keep America safe, strong, and free — on our shores and across the vast, endless domain of space. For their service and sacrifice, they have our eternal gratitude.

Semper Supra. Always above. Always winning.
