Ones Ready Ops Brief 027: Daily Drop - 14 April 2025 (Budget Cuts, SpaceX Wins, & Why the Insurrection Act Sounds Sketchy AF)
Peaches’ back with the Ones Ready Daily Drop, serving up the Department of the Air Force’s juiciest news with a side of zero-BS commentary that’ll make bureaucrats cry. From SpaceX dunking on ULA to become the Space Force’s launch daddy, to the Pentagon slashing IT contracts like a bad breakup, this episode is a rollercoaster of military shake-ups. Oh, and let’s not forget General Dan Cain’s 9/11 gut-check or the Air Force Academy’s faculty cuts that scream “penny-pinching gone wrong.” Peaches doesn’t hold back, calling out the CV-22’s gearbox saga and questioning the Insurrection Act’s J6 vibes. It’s a snarky, no-filter dive into what’s shaking the DoD, with enough shade to keep you smirking.
Key Takeaways:
- SpaceX is eating ULA’s lunch, snagging Space Force launch contracts while dropping NRO payloads like it’s no big deal.
- The Pentagon’s saving $4.2B by axing IT deals, but Jared’s not sold on slashing budgets without a brain.
- General Dan Cain’s confirmed as Joint Chiefs chair—here’s hoping he fixes the acquisition mess before it implodes.
- The CV-22 gearbox fix is coming, but why’d it take crashes to figure out it’s been janky forever?
- Insurrection Act talk has Jared side-eyeing hard—J6 wasn’t an “insurrection,” so let’s not give the DoD a blank check to play cop.
