Our mob boss POTUS.

What Happened: U.S. negotiators are pressing Ukraine to agree to a deal on its critical minerals—demanding 50% control in exchange for wartime aid. Sources say if Ukraine doesn’t comply, the U.S. could cut off its access to Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite internet, which is vital for military communications and drone operations.

Why It Matters: Trump's threat to cut off Starlink—a vital lifeline for Ukraine's military—directly cripples its defense and serves as a blatant extortion tactic that reiterates his loyalty to Putin. This move not only undermines Ukraine's sovereignty but places the U.S. on Russia's side in assisting in its genocidal war.
