Trump's Golden Dome Creates Opening for Space Force to Gain Relevance

Five years after its formation during President Donald Trump's first administration prompted jokes about the Star Trek-style logo and inspired a Netflix Inc. sitcom with Steve Carell, the US Space Force is still looking for respect.
'Many people don't even understand the Space Force is real,' General Michael Guetlein, the agency's vice chief of space operations, told a Washington area conference in March. 'That was a luxury that we had when space wasn't contested. We no longer enjoy that luxury.'

‘Ginny And Georgia' Dethroned By A New Show In Netflix's Top 10 List
Ginny and Georgia season 3 Netflix Ginny and Georgia season 3 has been planted at the #1 spot in Netflix's Top 10 list since its second day of release, and while it will likely continue that going forward, it has taken a temporary drop to #2. Once again, we have a returning champion, WWE Monday Night RAW, which has taken the #1 spot. This is not an uncommon development, but there are many instances that RAW only lands at #2 or #3, depending on what's happening on a given night. But recent storylines have been developed well, and last night's episode is receiving a lot of praise thanks to things like unpredictable title changes, a fairly rare occurrence these days: Also, the recently released R-Truth shaved his head which was something to behold, and he transformed into the not-released Ron Killings: Wild times over there, and not surprising that it managed to knock down Ginny and Georgia. Season 2 of the show was #1 on Netflix for about two weeks when it was released in January 2023. Season 3 was released on June 5, so we're not even at a full week yet. Performance does not matter here all that much, as season 4 of Ginny and Georgia was greenlit way back in 2024. The other entries on the list have just shifted down a bit. The Shane Gillis comedy Tires is at #3 now, back for season 3. The Survivors is Netflix's new 100% scored mystery series that may stay high for a bit if word of mouth spreads. One interesting addition here is Blindspot, a full 100 episodes of the show that ran for 5 seasons back when shows were actually 20 episodes on network TV. The series stars Jaimie Alexander and started in 2015 before it ended in 2020. Seriously, five seasons, five years, 100 episodes. Quite literally impossible in 2025 here. We have lost that magic for whatever reason. I'm curious if Blindspot will attract a larger-scale audience like we previously saw with Suits. Shows with a lot of back episodes like this tend to stick around on Netflix. I just checked how the show scored, but it doesn't even have ratings for its last three seasons and season 2 only had six reviews (albeit that was a 100%). Ginny and Georgia will be back on top as soon as tomorrow, I would guess, and we will see if it can match the two weeks on top it had before. I do expect this show to run as long as it wants, but we'll see how it retains viewers over time. Follow me on Twitter, YouTube, Bluesky and Instagram. Pick up my sci-fi novels the Herokiller series and The Earthborn Trilogy.

Live on Saturday, September 13, streaming globally on Netflix, two of the GREATEST boxers in the sport will meet in a historic fight from Las Vegas."

Their first stop will be at Baker Alshidy Theatre in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on June 20, before heading to Fanatics Fest in New York on June 22, and finally T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on June 27. Canelo vs. Crawford takes place on the same day as Noche UFC, which was previously a pay-per-view event slated for Guadalajara, Mexico, but is now a UFC Fight Night taking place at Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, Texas.
