  Good morning to readers; Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands. Yesterday, # Ukrainian troops failed missions due to # Starlink block. This is simply an evil move that will cost lives. Air defense and mid-range strike units tell us how they feel betrayed amid relentless # Russian attacks. https://www. counteroffensive.news/p/trumps…

  It’s time for the UK and Europe to wake up to on the fact that the USA is no longer an ally of the West or democracy. Trump is clearly working to help Russia in any way he can whilst personally enriching himself and his friends in return. The last few months has shown that we are horribly reliant on USA technology and services and that the US…

  Hillary was absolutely right. Trump is Putin's puppet. It's going to get Ukrainians killed while aiding and abetting Putin's criminal war effort.

  “The order to restrict Ukraine’s military-grade Starshield satellite communications system came directly from inside the White House, according to a Reuters investigation published Thursday, Oct. 15, revealing that Washington moved to limit technology essential to Ukraine’s battlefield operations and defense against Russian drones.”

  Because noone has said it in a comment I am gonna say it here, any issue you have with Musk in this situation is due to a confusion between STARSHIELD and STARLINK. Starshield is the part owned by the military, and that part has been restricted for Ukraine due to, quite frankly, bullshit reasons that you are allowed to be mad at. However, again…

  Het bevel om Starshield (Starlink) te beperken voor het Oekraïense leger, kwam vanuit het Witte Huis, meldt @reuters.com op basis bronnen. Als dit bericht klopt, dan is dit de bevestiging dat de Amerikaanse regering bewust Oekraïense levens in gevaar brengt.

  Elon says it wasn't him. White House staff says it wasn't the orange guy. No one owns up to shutting Starlink for Ukraine. We all have our guesses who it was, I'm sure. Traitors, the lot of them. https:// kyivindependent.com/no-ones-ow ning-up-to-crippling-ukraines-military-starlink/

  So Trump is gonna get impeached over Ukraine for the second time in as many Presidential terms. It'd be funny if it wasn't so serious. Actually in fact to be serious, if it turns out Hegseth was the one who gave the "code red" to inhibit Starshield for Ukraine that could be the thing that gets him convicted by the Senate after the House impeaches…

  Christopher Miller writes: “Although Musk owns SpaceX, which controls the Starlink systems and can impose restrictions on them in Ukraine, the restrictions that began overnight concern the military version of the system, Starshield... which is controlled by the Pentagon.” So

  The short of it, from a US voter perspective, is Trump is helping Russia, so Russia can aid Iran, so Iran can kill American soldiers. That's the only thing anyone should be repeating right now. American's done care about Ukrainians (unfortunately) nor do they care what Russia's involvement is, or apparently too much about Trump attacking Iran for…

  The White House's decision to limit Starlink is what should worry Europe most. A single private network with its uptime decided in Washington is the dependency Kyiv has to design around, and Brussels should be funding a satcom backup now, not after the next cutoff.

  How about time for Musk to go... Again, everyone please go VOTE... the amount of kiss ass between Trump and Musk currently going on needs to get a firm separation. Like, "if" we can get a congress that actually does their job and enforces the separation of powers we need them to next draft some laws on the separation of Musk and the federal…

  ❗️Ukraine’s Defense Ministry says Starshield is working normally again while in motion, with military units confirming connectivity has been restored. The ministry is still investigating what caused the October 14 restrictions and remains in contact with the US, SpaceX and NATO partners to establish what happened. # Ukraine

  Funny if it wasn’t so depressing. The dems were in power. Trump did not go to jail for Jan 6 or any reason. Biden didn’t make sure this couldn’t happen again. Why do you think they’ll do anything this time? Obama let bush of the hook for his war crimes. I’ll believe in justice when I see it being served but I’m not very hopeful. This will end in…
