    How exactly has he demonstrated his urge to see Ukraine fail?

    EDIT: Still waiting for examples of this

      He has refused to allow Ukrainian troops to use Starlink within Russian occupied regions to avoid “conflict escalation”.

        It would be illegal to enable it within Russian/occupied territory because of US sanctions.

          He also doesn’t let Ukraine use starlink in Russian-occupied regions of Ukraine, according to a quick google search.

            It’s prohibited by U.S. sanctions to Russia.

              So if a single Russian soldier enters the US, all of America must stop everything because of sanctions against Russsia?

                …what? No, U.S.A is not under U.S.A. sanctions. Crimea and the rest of the occupied territories are.

              Russia doesn’t own the land they put troops on? What are you talking about.

                I’m not the one setting the sanctions. If you have complaints you can tell it to the U.S. government.

          Why? Can starlink not track which ones they give to Ukraine and not let any others work in the area? Or would that require competence that Leon Skum and company doesn’t have?

            You’re asking the wrong person. I don’t work for U.S. goverment - I don’t know why the sanctions are what they are.

      IDK, maybe that whole thing where he likes to selectively turn off Starlink, or maybe that time he literally went to visit Putin and then spouted some Russian Blood and soil?

        Starlink wasn’t enabled in Crimea in the first place because of U.S. sanctions. The author lied about this and has admitted doing so.

            Your claim about him “selectively turning off Starlink” is false. You’re spreading misinformation.

              can you fit his cock any deeper?

              not like it was actually reported on

              No, in fact he then came out and called for Ukraine to surrender, has actively used Starlink at the behest of Putin, while yes keeping in contact with Putin, openly repeated the Russian blood and soil propaganda calling Krima “Khrushchev’s mistake”, and of course as we later learned SpaceX was indeed under orders off the pentagon, making these sanctions irrelevant, not that is stopped SpaceX from selling to Russia anyway, and of course the Pentagon taking over control of Starlink above Ukraine to make sure Musk couldn’t pull this shit again.

              quite frankly, the only reason the man is not behind bars is that he has too much power, and too much lobbying
