Space Force unveils logo, 'Semper Supra' motto - SpaceNews:
The U.S. Space Force revealed its new logo and motto as the service seeks to build branding and cultural identity.
The black-and-silver service logo unveiled July 22 has the delta wing as its central element that is also found in the Space Force seal and flag. There is a "Space Force" horizontally shaped logo and a USSF vertical logo.
The Space Force motto "Semper Supra" means "always above." It represents the service's role in establishing, maintaining and preserving U.S. freedom of operations in the ultimate high ground, a Space Force spokesman said.
The logo was designed by the Department of the Air Force's advertising agency GSD&M.

No, I don't think so. If you pick an asteroid from the belt, you'll need to "convince" it to change its momentum (at least as direction) to intersect Earth's orbit - in other words, to push it towards the Sun. That Δv (as vector) is going to cost somewhere the same order of magnitude with the difference in the potential energy between the two orbits.
When it comes to the time required to deliver the energy, if it takes decades, not only it's useless as strategy, but aiming it with enough precision against your enemy is totally out of the picture.
Even Lazy Dogs [wikipedia.org] launched from stratospheric balloons has better chances to deliver some damage to your enemy that asteroid bombardment. Be it only that you'll need to spend a multimillion rocket to down it and the attacker only needs a few $1000 to launch it from international waters on a wind that will get it over your territory somewhere.
