So your last post is because you did not even use your brain. Well, ok. Bye! 👋 For this to be true: • Four anonymous sources (plus a senior European official and two Ukrainian sources) would need to have accurate knowledge of a private or tightly held conversation between Musk and Trump. • That information would need a plausible path to Ukrainian and European officials that the reporting never explains. • Musk and Trump would need to have spoken or met in the relevant window, despite no public evidence they were together while Trump was traveling (Alaska, Las Vegas, Arizona, Montana) around 13–14 October. • Musk would need to have proposed restricting a system the US government already controls, rather than the White House simply directing it itself. • He would need to have initiated the restriction despite having personally enabled Starlink for Ukraine in February 2022 when it was operationally critical. • He would need to have overlooked or temporarily discounted the European commercial risk — and the concurrent India regulatory push, where he was actively lobbying for Starlink approval — that the same sources say he later treated as serious enough to reverse course and publicly blame the administration. • The leakers from any small circle around the conversation would need to have accepted the risk of being identified by Trump. • Both Musk’s and Trump’s public denials would need to be false. • Other reporting (including Reuters) that the order simply came from inside the White House would need to be incomplete or wrong about the origin. Arguments supporting it: - The Telegraph says so. 🤷‍♀️
