Wonder if the US Government will want to look into Starlink as a Russian Collaborator on American soil?
I’m sure there must be laws governing actions of a private company who has been given government grants etc. using that money to influence the outcome of a war?
There are clever people on here who know a lot more about US law etc. but I can’t see why Biden and Co. Can’t step in?

I thought the US govt. paid the bill for the use of Starlink in Ukraine. I assume that would mean he can't without being heavily penalized for cutting off their agreement.
I might have misread something though, so I'm possibly a bit off on the specifics on the deal.
Elizabeth Warren wants him investigated for it. Don't know if that will build up to anything, but it's a starting point that someone in the US Govt. is not happy with his interference.
Elizabeth Warren calls for an investigation into Musk and Starlink in Ukraine after biography claim
In his book titled "Elon Musk," released Tuesday, Walter Isaacson details Musk's policy of geofencing Starlink's satellite network over Crimea last year.

Last Saturday, the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry published a press release in which it stated that Russian elections in part of the internationally recognized territory of Ukraine cannot have any legal force.
Russia talks about it's integrity while destroying Ukraine's integrity and makes a threat to Azerbaijan about their integrity.
Armenia was a member of CSTO.
Russia is also loosing Armenia.
Armenia also doing military training with USA right now and refused to do training with Russia in January.

Azerbaijan and Armenia are in a conflict between each other and Russian peacekeepers were supposed to do something about it.

It's a known fact that SpaceX has done this multiple times on purpose. There are established communication links between Ukrainian and American officials and SpaceX. SpaceX doesn't want Starlink to be used directly for war.
Looks like Joseph Starlink tried to influence the outcome again last night.
Edit: All those articles written by reputable sources saying that Romania said the drones didn't land in Romania were flatout wrong. I can't believe they published that. Even agencies like CNN blatantly misinterpreted Romania's statement and lied.

SpaceX terminals is one of the core systems that helps Ukrainians doing that well, thanks God they are a thing in first place. Like shutdowns in Crimea is ******, but whole thing is owned by SpaceX. They can do that, nothing wrong with that. Anyone ******** on NATO members when they asking to not use its weapons in conventional Russian territory? How its any different from what Musk doing? Why ****ing Biden, the mighty leader of unstoppable US, is scared of our dwarf, yet Musk shouldn't? We all should understand - there isn't any red lines. Putler wouldn't use nukes. One demonstration of power and he will run out of Ukraine, like he did every time he confront anyone with guts. Treat him as a bully - only language he understands is brutal force. Learn some lessons from Erdoganus, idk.

SpaceX is a government contractor that relies heavily on funding from the US government. I suppose you could say the US government also relies upon SpaceX for launch vehicles, but it's not as significant a dependence. The US government can decide that it doesn't want to fund a space company that is assisting Russian military efforts.

The EU removed Grigory Berezkin, billionaire Farkhad Akhmedov, and Alexander Shulgin from sanctions list, former head of Russian e-commerce firm Ozon .
Also EU - motor vehicles registered in the Russian Federation are no longer allowed to enter the territory of the 27-member bloc, including Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

Surovikin in Algeria he was sent by the Russian MOD as a representative.
He does not look well at all. Not to mention he was pretty close to Prighozin.
Basically an unofficial exile perhaps?
