if any anon can find it, there's a Pentagon Budget from I want to say like 2006 or 08, idk, that actually talks about exactly what Cruz is talking about, that the future of developmental warfare was going to be a: in space, and b: for the defense against the french [of all things] and rogue actors attacking satellites et. al.
this was on cspan, totally happened, but i can't find it in modern times
