🚨 JUST IN: Elon Musk just exposed Zelensky for OPENLY ADMITTING to abusing his civilian Starlink service for offensive drone strikes — and pushes HARD for peace

"The endless slaughter of Ukrainian and Russians must stop. We should some sympathy for the poor Russian conscripts choice but to fight and die in drone strikes." 🙏🏻

"For the fools out there, Zelensky himself posted about using Starlink for offensive drone strikes, which has always been against Starlink’s terms of service." 🎯

Elon brought the receipts: he dropped Zelensky's post from Oct. 16. Literally 9 days ago.

Ukraine has been IMMENSELY helped by @ElonMusk's company.

HOLD ELECTIONS. STRIKE A PEACE DEAL. STOP THIS MADNESS.

The *Pentagon* refused up to now to recklessly give the Ukrainian Military unlimited *Starshield* integration on top of all the early warning, not-admitted-to targeting within Russia and air defense evasion support they already receive

So the Ukrainians take it upon themselves to hack the Starlink terminals they are saturated with for civilian use AND depend on utterly for military comms on the battlefield, so they can also embed them in long-range drones for bigger strikes and strikes *inside* pre-2022 Russia

They do this to an ever-increasing degree until SpaceX finally patches that security breach, because not only is this an ungrateful violation of the terms of service to weaponize the service directly when its already weaponized directly on the battlefield quite enough, into doing something even the Pentagon wasn't fully supportive of (but the CIA was)

But its a practice that would mean the inevitable reaction to allowing this erasure of the distinction between Starlink and Starshield would be the Russian Military first designating all Starlink ground stations in reach as priority airstrike targets, followed by devoting itself to figuring out a final solution against SpaceX with a combination of mass jamming, cyberwarfare, and ultimately literally blowing Starlink satellites out of the sky en masse

Bearing in mind that it has already been its own quiet jamming war-within-a-war of countermeasure-vs-countermeasure between SpaceX's cracked engineers and a nuclear superpower's cracked engineers this whole time

Note that Starlink has been SO valuable that the Russians themselves figured out how to sneak-use it on the small-unit level for a while until SpaceX figured out how to cut them off. And now Russia's putting up its own Starlink-esque constellation quickly, if roughly, already bearing fruit helping its own deep drone strike capabilities

So, if civilian Starlink had continued to be used for deadly strikes on Russia without official U.S. government authorization, which has *only now* essentially been given, apparently, it would be interpreted as being with Elon's blessing, and therefore by next year SpaceX civilian sats would be suffering catastrophic interference unlikely to be geo-limited to Ukraine/Russia. Also imagine ceaseless nation-state level cyberattacks coming down on everything SpaceX. Neutral nations and Russian allies would then no doubt be pressured to lock SpaceX out of their markets too, in a time when Starlink can't get into India already

And if it escalated up to kinetic strikes in orbit being needed to end the SpaceX threat, that would have to be responded to as the beginning of a SPACE WAR between Russia and the United States. Which would be followed by multi-billions in collateral damage losses and worldwide economic disruption from all the orbital debris from both sides killing satellites destroying other people's satellites too, even if the whole thing was short-lived

But "Slava Ukraini" or something
Correct.

Using Starlink, a civilian commercial service, for offensive drone strikes to kill people has never been allowed, nor should it be.

Starshield, a different system, is controlled by the US government. What they decide to do is up to them.

Ukraine military violated Starlink terms of service and used it for offensive drone strikes to kill people. That loophole was closed last week.

Starlink remains critical to the defense of Ukraine, as it is the only system that cannot be jammed or blown up, at least for now. Were Starlink to be turned off, the Ukrainian front line would collapse immediately. This is NOT a threat, it is simply a statement of fact.

Starlink was also crucial to preventing Russia from overrunning Ukraine in the early days of the war, as all other means of communication were destroyed or jammed by Russia.

SpaceX has done more to defend Ukraine than any private company on Earth BY FAR.

That said, I have nothing but UTTER CONTEMPT for the virtue-signaling evil warmongers who push for endless slaughter and offer no realistic solution to the conflict. May you burn in hell.

End of story.

Dear Elon,@elonmusk could you please explain what your Starlink system is doing on Ukrainian attack drones?
Community note
SpaceX actively blocks Starlink terminals from functioning over Russian sovereign territory. This prevents the network from working when long-range drones or missiles cross deep into Russia.

It’s obvious Zelensky was referring to Starlink as an umbrella term, when Ukraine 🇺🇦 is exclusively using Starshield for these operations, even Elon Musk referred to Starlink in the same way back in 2022

The debate over Elon’s decision to throttle Starlink speeds comes down to a basic principle that Ukrainian government ignoring: private civilian infrastructure is being openly weaponized in a foreign war, dragging an American company and its CEO into a conflict they never signed commercial internet service for civilians, not a free military communications backbone for any government or armed force. The Ukrainian Armed Forces have repeatedly violated the terms of service by using it for combat operations, including mounting terminals on cheap FPV drones in active tactical zones. That is not “innovation” it is the deliberate militarization of civilian technology.

This puts Elon Musk and SpaceX in an impossible political position. By continuing to provide service under these conditions, a U.S. company risks being treated as a party to the conflict, exposed to legal, regulatory, and retaliatory consequences. The same governments and commentators who demand unlimited support for Ukraine show little concern for the sovereignty of private companies or the dangers of turning commercial systems into instruments of war. If the roles were reversed, the outcry would be immediate.

The video of Starlink terminals on FPV drones simply makes the problem harder to deny: the Ukrainian military is so well-supplied with terminals that they are treating them as expendable military gear. That is a political choice with real costs for the company providing the service.

Ukraine has always used only civilian Starlink services: the basic plan ($100), the commercial in-motion plan ($400), and the priority command-post plan ($2,000–4,000). Aviation plans cost up to ut they are unavailable in Ukraine.

Under heavy demand, the network became overloaded. SpaceX had to keep prices high for the military to build excess ground-station capacity around Ukraine and minimise signal latency. These are the very sites with antenna domes that recently began to be set on fire in attacks allegedly ordered through the dark web.

The main problem Ukrainian forces faced at the front was Russian electronic warfare (EW). GPS signal jamming caused civilian Starlink chips to freeze, while spoofed location data could trigger terminal lockouts.

The solution was a GPS hack board. Engineers soldered it inside the terminal to manually set the desired coordinates. These boards also made it possible to bypass Musk’s geographic restrictions.

For a long time, Starlink did not work in the grey zone under Russian control. But entering the coordinates of a neighbouring Ukrainian region restored the connection. Russian forces also exploited this loophole until Starlink introduced exclusive whitelists for the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) only.

By 2025, Musk began tightening restrictions and reducing speed limits for commercial plans. But Ukrainian military engineers discovered a loophole: technically, the satellite-terminal communication session was not rigidly tied to GPS. The protection existed only within the terminal module itself.

If the terminal was made to believe through the hack board that it was stationary, it would send its own radio request to the satellite and receive the necessary session data. There are now around 10,000 satellites, and the signal could be picked up even with a separation of more than 150 km. The drone could fly over Russian territory while Starlink’s servers believed it was stationary.

This was a major Ukrainian secret. Before being sent to the front, the casings of new Starlink terminals were routinely opened to install GPS hacks and sturdy, waterproof connectors. This allowed drones to fly at high speeds while using an ordinary subscription.

In early 2026, Musk reduced the commercial plan’s speed limit to 160 km/h worldwide. That is slower than many basic UAVs can fly with a tailwind. But because GPS hack boards were so widely used in Ukraine, nobody noticed. The terminals reported that they were supposedly stationary.

IN LATE 2026, SPACEX RESPONDED HARSHLY. A server-side check was introduced: if a terminal’s GPS indicated that it was stationary but it switched between satellites too quickly—revealing an actual speed above 160 km/h—the server would immediately terminate the connection.

The GPS hack stopped working. Ukrainian forces began experiencing problems with long-range UAVs. Flights now have to be planned carefully to avoid exceeding the 160 km/h limit. Funding for aviation plans is not always available, and SpaceX does not sell them for what it considers offensive uses.

Against this backdrop, Zelensky is trying to obtain unrestricted access to Starshield—the US military version of Starlink—to enable flights over Russia. But Trump, Musk and the Pentagon are refusing him. Ukraine has portrayed the restrictions as a political blockade while omitting the fact that the Starlink speed limit has reportedly been in place for almost a year.

A behind-the-scenes back-and-forth is now underway: Musk says he has not changed anything in recent days, while Rubio states that Starshield is unavailable to Ukraine. The result: Starlink is gradually being restricted to vehicle-based and stationary use. The workaround no longer works.

Whether the speed check has been disabled or access to specialised aviation plans has been granted remains unclear. The outage affected a narrow segment of drones...

If someone asks you how much a single family's life is worth to the United States Navy, tell them the exact price: ten million dollars of steel.

On April 29, 1975, as Saigon fell, a tiny two-seat wooden-and-fabric Cessna plane with almost no fuel left circled desperately above arrier USS Midway.

Inside that tiny cockpit, a father named Major Buang-Ly had crammed his wife and five small children, including a baby. He scribbled a note on a map, wrapped it around his pistol so it would not blow into the ocean, and dropped it onto the carrier deck.

A young American sailor picked up the crumpled paper and ran it up to Captain Lawrence Chambers.

The note read: "Can you move these helicopter to the other side, I can land on your runway, I can fly 1 hour more. Please rescue me. Major Buang, Wife and 5 child."

The flight deck of the USS Midway was completely jammed from bow to stern with military helicopters. A Cessna has no tailhook to catch carrier wires, and its pilot had never landed on a ship in his life.

By every military regulation, Captain Chambers had been in command for only five weeks. Throwing millions of dollars of U.S. government aircraft into the sea without permission from Washington could end his career in a court-martial.

Chambers looked up at the tiny plane circling in the wind with five children inside. He did not call an accountant in Washington.

"Clear the deck," the captain ordered.

Hundreds of young American sailors in yellow and green jerseys ran to the edge of the ship, put their shoulders against massive Huey helicopters, and shoved ten million dollars worth of machinery straight off the cliff into the South China Sea.

Captain Chambers turned the giant carrier into the wind at twenty-five knots. The tiny Cessna came down, bounced once on the steel runway, and rolled to a safe stop with feet to spare.

When the cockpit door opened and five small children stepped out onto the deck, three thousand American sailors roared so loud it drowned out the engines, and immediately passed around a hat to collect cash for the family's new life in America.

When the math says a child's life is too expensive, an American throws the math into the ocean.

Any comment @peggyflanagan?
🚨SCOOP🚨

Reed Oslon, a Democrat running for MN House-2A, was charged with CRIMINAL S*XUAL CONDUCT, according to an incident report we obtained.

According to the report, Oslon allegedly became aggressive after drinking at a bar and stuck his hand down the pants of the victim.
forwarded to the county attorney's office for review.

We obtained the report via FOIA after receiving a tip about this story

There is something very wrong in Minnesota!

Elon is correct.

Zelenskyy admits using Starlink not Starshield for offensive drone strikes.

A loophole violating Starlink’s terms of service.

Starshield: Government & Controlled by POTUS.

Starlink: Commercial & Controlled by SpaceX.

Dems and Media lied and misled as usual.

@RogueOles@RepDonBaconnt and top posts from RepDonBacon, the dominant subject is the Russia-Ukraine war. He frequently advocates U.S. support for Ukraine, criticizes Putin and Russia as the aggressor, and challenges views he sees as pro-Russia or isolationist. Other topics like border security, tariffs, and Iran appear far less often.

SOMETHING YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW!

In 1966, Robert Mitchum was flown on a government aircraft to Vietnam on a USO tour where he spent his first days in Saigon, wining and dining in tropical colonial splendor, meeting and greeting the military elite.
He was taken to military hospitals lled with injured Americans, young guys with missing arms and legs and faces half blown off.

The visits had there intended effect...it wasn’t easy to remain neutral or indifferent about the war when you saw what the enemy, whatever their cause was doing to these young boys.

He was taken out to villages and shown good works projects, Americans putting in sewage systems, building schoolhouses.
He was impressed, and pissed off. Why didn’t they show any of these noble efforts on the news back home?

The greater part of Mitchum’s two-week visit was spent in the field, roaming by helicopter and light aircraft from one US encampment to another, fanning across the jungles north of the capital city.

His itinerary included a quick tour of the base and an hour or so of shaking hands and making small talk, encouraging words for the troops.
He posed for pictures, signed autographs for anyone who wanted one, and collected phone numbers and messages from kids who knew their moms would be thrilled to hear Robert Mitchum telling them their boys were okay.

He got back from Vietnam with ninety million tiny scraps of paper. Just about every boy he met over there gave him a message to take back. Pieces of paper with phone numbers, names.

And Robert Mitchum sat down for days and called every number.
Just brief conversations with wives and mothers and fathers....
‘I just saw your son and he wanted me to call and say hello. He’s doing fine, looks good. He’s doing a good job over there.’

He called every one.
At one point a Navy Sailor who was Mitchum’s escort, wanted to wrap a visit up and get back to the helicopter, but Mitchum said...
“Relax, man. Anybody got a drink around here?”

They trudged over to the local clubhouse, a contraption made of ammunition boxes and Playboy centerfolds.

Mitchum asked what they charged for a drink, then asked how much it would be to buy the whole bar. The owner didn’t know. Mitchum told him to figure it out.

Mitchum then took a fat roll of bills from his pocket. It cost him a couple hundred to buy the bar. The servicemen drank free, on his tab, for months.

Mitchum played some craps, lost most of his roll, and took off. He signed up for a second tour, and in February 1967, spent two more weeks roaming encampment and military hospitals.

OSINT analysts who have been bashing @elonmusk for days over this don't get it. Russia has the capacity to blow up satellites in space. They proved this on November 15, 2021, by firing a PL-19 Nudol missile at an old satellite of their own.

The impact created a large debris cloud—more than 1,500 trackable fragments plus hundreds of thousands of smaller pieces. The International Space Station was forced to implement safe-haven procedures: the seven-person crew (including Russian cosmonauts) sealed hatches and sheltered in the docked Soyuz and Crew Dragon spacecraft for several hours as the debris cloud repeatedly crossed their orbital path.

The ISS even had to perform thruster burns on multiple occasions over the following months to avoid the debris cloud orbiting the Earth.

If Russia decides that the civilian Starlink satellite network is weaponized and fair game, we risk a serious Kessler syndrome. First modeled by NASA’s Donald Kessler and Burton Cour-Palais in 1978, it describes a scenario in which the density of objects in low Earth orbit gets so high that collisions start producing debris faster than natural processes (mainly atmospheric drag) can remove.

Each collision creates more fragments, which raise the odds of further collisions, leading to a self-sustaining cascade, a runaway cloud of satellite debris that can make certain orbital bands increasingly hazardous.

Space could become unusable for years to centuries.

You like driving around with GPS? Starlink MUST remain a civilian entity.
