"Ukrainian troops have been caught off guard by restrictions on Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite internet systems that disrupted frontline operations, while Kyiv received no warning from its partners of a Russian missile attack on its energy facilities for the second day running."

REPUBLICANS ARE ALL WAR CRIMINALS! REMEMBER that the republican controlled Congress CAN stop this at anytime and refuse. Which makes them ALL guilty of WAR CRIMES against Ukraine & Iran!!!!

Putin, Musk, Trump. Against the world. Against Ukraine. Against freedom. Against the USA and Europe. Against you. For Russia. For the slaughter of innocents. Openly. Trump and Musk are unpatriotic, disloyal Americans. They’re open about it. Despicable. Traitors. Deport both of them.

This sucks👆! Ukraine is fighting for their sovereignty, Russia is the aggressor, support Ukraine 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

Things aren’t going well for Ukraine. Elon Musk’s moves on Starlink speeds are disrupting Ukraine's drone missions and defense, which all seem aligned with Trump’s push to halt strikes on Russian energy infrastructure.

Trump attacks Ukraine. Cutting off enemy communication is a core military tactic used to blind intelligence and isolate units. Trump taking out Ukrainian communication is an attack, to weaken Ukrainian defense against the invaders. Trump is in alliance with Putin.

If Trump the wannabe great businessman wants to continue to partner with Putin, I'd be happy to accept his resignation today and send him on his way. As our president, our enemies are off limits and our allies deserve better.

It all comes from the White House. Elon didn't stop sharing intelligence, Trump did.. The U.S. is showing whose side they are on, that of the oligarchs, predators and villians.

Speaking in 1907, Teddy Roosevelt could not have anticipated that his "malefactors of great wealth" would ever be able to purchase the entire US government and wage war as if they were sovereign states half a world away.

Ukraine has little choice but to rely on Starlink for its military operations because Europe has yet to develop a viable alternative. It's time for Europe to step up, take responsibility, and do whatever it takes to ensure Ukraine has the technology and support it needs to defend itself.

No comment on that from Mr Rupar. Lots of comments on people screaming on Hegshit, no comments on US Musk betraying Ukraine and causing deaths of civilians and solders on Ukrainian side. Politics in US is steered via social media from outside, but reporters care only for inside events.

That decision came straight from the Space Nazi. I think a lawsuit, and lots of discovery, is in order.🤔

StarShield is the US government military service. Musk has previously stated it is operated by the US gov, not under SpaceX control. New 100 mph limit was imposed by Trump to help Putin.

They tried turning the screws quietly, but Ukraine wouldn’t surrender… so now they’re just gonna be blatant with their efforts to ensure that Russia wins.

We call this scenario vendor lock-in in the IT industry, but innocent people don't die as a result. Europe should launch a competing constellation.

I know the US won't but every other nation should be seizing everything even remotely connected to Musk- accounts, properties, factories, data centers, mining sites, towers, whatever & holding it until he turns everything StarLink over to be nationalized. He should not be compensated.

The shame most Americans must feel today must be off the charts. What a dark day in the history of the USA, the day the USA decided to openly collude with a dictator and war criminal who is attacking a 'so-called' ally.

ENTIRELY DISGRACEFUL!!! OUR GREAT AMERICAN ALLY UKRAINE NEEDS THE FULL AND UNRELENTING SUPPORT OF THE ENTIRE WORLD!!! Thank you for your attention to this matter! Future Inevitable President of the United States of America BB

Elon Musk has enough money that he could have ended this war at any time, simply by offering Putin (or all the soldiers) money. He could stop the war today; of course he could. But his bot army got attacked, so now flesh and blood humans will have to suffer and die for it. He's making it worse.

This is horrid 💔 AND Musk just showed the tech bros hand. Are we-the-people and other governments going to do anything? How many services do we pay these oligarchs for? Beside defense - Healthcare, housing, internet, etc. They’re buying farmland. What else is to come? Reliance = ultimate control.

Government functions should not depend on affiliations with drug-addled psychopaths. All the people in the world & so much damage by a handful who’ve gained power by force or fools. What a terrible betrayal by Musk & the Trump administration.

One is a platform deciding who gets to fight back. The other is partners watching launches on radar and staying silent. Both tell Kyiv the same thing: plan for the war without them.

Helping Putin should be officially designated as providing material support for terrorism. That makes Musk a national security threat and his interest in SPACEX must be confiscated. If that's not the law, make it the law. The next Dem President should throw Musk in a cell next to Maduro.

As if we needed any further proof that Trump is Putin’s bitch. He’s not just jeopardizing Ukraine’s national security, but betraying America’s democratic values.

Elon is evil. hoping another provider can be found for Ukraine. do we have anyone on the right side of this whole thing, that has the power to knock out Elon Musk's Starlink satellite network, so its out of commission for the midterms?

Him and members of our government as well. Unfortunately, Federal law forbids it. Unless the US ratifies the Rome Statute, we can't extradite them. That should be top of the list for the next administration for beginning to restore global trust in US/us.
