Elon Musk ordered a “slowdown” to Starlink in Ukraine that set off a “panic” in the country and “confusion inside” the Trump administration.

The Wall Street Journal dropped a report on Tuesday diving into a disruption in Ukraine’s Starlink-internet service as they continue fighting a war with Russia.

According to U.S. officials and three people familiar with the situation, “Elon Musk ordered the slowdown of a military-grade version of Starlink relied on by Ukraine, a decision that sparked panic in Kyiv and confusion inside the Trump administration.”

    We are not actually at war with Russia. That’s it. Without that, it can’t be treason in the U.S.

    If we were at war with Russia…we’ll, he has a lot of wealth. I think that also means laws don’t apply to him.

      Russia’s openly sabotaging all NATO members, and NATO is the US’s former means of power projection in Europe, WE aren’t at war with them, but they have no problem being at war with us.
