Makes sense. He already had USDA Inspector General Phyllis Fong escorted out after she refused to quit. She just happened to be leading an investigation into Musk’s company Neuralink. I’m sure that was just a coincidence, though.
This all makes sense now.
Well, it always made sense insofar as we always knew these fucks were about their own self gain. Now we know one of the specific gains they are gutting society to get. I’m sure there’ll be more.
There it is
There it is
As recently pointed out, you imagine what Republicans would be doing if George Soros was in Musk’s shoes?
We’d already be in civil war. Literally.
I learned a long time ago that republicans not only are hypocrites, but they are 100% aware of this.
Blatant hypocrisy, in their eyes, is merely an expression of power. They get to do it and you don’t.
And don’t care.
Especially they don’t care. It’s frustrating.
We’d already be in civil war. Literally.
We already are.
And we are getting our asses handed to us.
As of yet, a Cold Civil War
George Soros would be dead.
To be fair I don’t know how the man is still alive. The dude is basically a fossil.
There ya go. Of course Elon Musk, king of the US, was under investigation. That explains a lot.
Unfortunately we will never know the full story.
isn’t this troglodyte the richest creature in the world? can he not pay anyone to give him a decent haircut?
There it is.
Ah, so, basically, whatever he was doing was illegal.
musk is a piece of shit but why is this investigation in USAID’s purview?
Likely wanted to get/keep a contract for providing communication services when cell towers may be down. I think the specific issue that brought USAID’s eye was when he disabled the satellites during a critical event.
Yup and probably cost lives by preventing aid from getting to where it needed to go. USAID signed a contract with starlink, Musk didn’t keep his side off the bargain. Thus, investigation.
Despite the headline USAID wasn’t investigating Musk or Starlink. It was investigating how Ukraine was using the Starlink terminals that USAID gave them and how USAID itself was overseeing Ukraine’s use.
Basically the headline is completely misrepresenting what was happening.
Perhaps I’m confused but it doesn’t appear that the headline is supported by the article. This “investigation” was started and publicly announced in May of 2024 and it has nothing to do with Starlink’s contracts in Ukraine. Rather it’s about how Ukraine was using the StarLink terminals that USAID was giving them and how USAID was monitoring their use.
unless someone has more info, this seems very thin at the moment. speculating, with nothing more than a usaid website blurb, does not seem helpful beyond distraction. follow the trickle and uncover hard evidence, sure… but this? right now?
It’s helpful if you have an agenda.
muppets lmao
