Darn shirker. Next he’ll be wanting us to take some of the billions we’re blowing paying corrupt Uke government officials’ salaries and benefits and use it on helping the Ukrainian people.

There’s enough cash . . . MORE than enough cash . . . being laundered through Ukraine (apparently the whole reason for it’s existence) to finance Starlink

And be assured, the Starlink satellites can be easily destroyed by Russia, as well.

Yeah they probably have.
I heard they were having trouble receiving in Eastern Ukraine.
But I also heard that Western Ukraine relied on a powerful transmitter located in Poland.
Not sure why part of the service is relying on satellite and part on ground transmitter.
They could probably put a powerful transmitter in Romania to support Kherson and Crimea operations.
Romania is in NATO so Russia can’t bomb them.

But I’m guessing the HARMS missiles can be adjusted to hone in on the zoning signal.

"unfortunately. He need the money to completely buy out Twatter."

That's his problem, not mine. I've never subscribed to it, and never will, no matter who owns it. I don't want to have to pay for it, or his Starlink system.

To show how Ukrainian media etc is/are going to portray Musk.

They are already covering every public face/poster of Tony Stark’s (aka Elon Musk) in Odessa.

"Green Screen Zelensky" can have his NATO Hollywood bosses holograph him into space to hack all the Starlink Sats.

All the usual FR Paid Pentagon Posters will be delirious with joy as they copy and paste his heroic holographs from the Daily Mail and (ukraine) PRAVDA.

Did you understand the ending?
I felt like it was open to interpretation.

““F*** off is my very diplomatic reply to you @elonmusk,” he replied.

Deteriorating relations between Musk and Kyiv -the latter having become accustomed to getting what they want at the expense of Western democracies and republics- is said to have played a major role in the tech company’s response.

Ukraine. Biting the hand that feeds.

Yep Elon is playing politics.

I guess he’ll deny Taiwan aid as well.

Let the West pay that’s fair.
