The Biden administration appears to have put the full blown militarization of space on ice for now (at least delaying the Mike Pompeo calls the "Strategic Defense Initiative of our time, the SDI 2.0"[1]), but there are still a number of demonstrations[2] going forward with Starlink funded by the Space Development Agency started by Elon's pal Michael D. Griffin[3].
This has been pretty hush hush, but voters should know what they're getting in the midterms if they support this. In my opinion it will indeed lead to WWIII. I think Elon knows that but justifies it by thinking he needs the military industrial complex funding for Mars.
