How much pork will there be and how little progress of actual space exploration will be achieved?
Reminds me of the guy (“Burke”) in “Aliens” always looking for an angle to protect his job and the corporation’s investment in the “weapon”. Snake oil, boys and girls.
Marginally related: A recent article describes Congress’ reaction when the Army determined it had to abandon a new communications system into which >$6 Billion had been spent. Reading this I had to wonder about the reaction if NASA walked away from SLS.

That is not the case today? Then what was the case presented? What was said?
