If it’s a better product, let them use Starlink.

Elon Musk has described his work, as “technical support” for, and “consultant” to, the President.

The far-left, democrats and the deep state considers Elon— Public Enemy Number one now.

[volare737]

They will go ‘scorched earth’ to bring Elon down.

Sounds like Verizon is paying off the Campaign Legal Center...

[CarmichaelPatriot]

Starling won the original bid. Biden cancelled it in favor of fiber optics (Verizon).

[linMcHlp]

Defied by the Obama 3.0 Administration and its Cohort:

"US law 18 USC 208. The statute 'prohibits an executive branch employee from participating personally and substantially in a particular Government matter that will affect his own financial interests'"

[P-Marlowe]

Musk is not an employee.

[Steely Tom]

If this is true, it was a mistake.

The Campaign Legal Center is a far left “watchdog” group dedicated to destroying Republicans especially President Trump. They are the one’s who need to be investigated.

“Can you hear me now?
“Yes, but no video”
“Darn... okay, let me use Starlink. Can you see me now?”
“Clear!”

[pepsi_junkie]

Nobody’s losing their mind in Ukraine about not having Verizon, I know that much. But threaten to turn off starlink access and watch the fireworks. Just sayin’

[Wally_Kalbacken]

BINGO!

[CatHerd]

We all knew they’d do this. Stinks, sure, but inevitable. They really have it in for Musk.

[TigersEye]

I’d bet good money Musk didn’t talk to anyone at FAA about Starlink other than possibly answering questions posed to him from them.

The left is in full lawfare mode against Trump and Musk and the media is with the left.

[SmokingJoe]

The Verizon product is not working as it should.
Starlink is far better.

[calljack]

Tell em he will do it for free. Or for cost.

[AndyTheBear]

Musk is wearing more than one hat. As the ceo of companies he has a duty to promote their products. Now if he were to make purchasing decisions when wearing his government employee hat there would be a conflict of interest. But have they shown he is making the decision or threatening the people that are?
