From the man who backed out of a fight with Mark Zuckerberg and an appearance on the Daily Show: "I literally challenged Putin to one on one physical combat". This is "my dad works for Nintendo" level stuff.

If the €800 billion committed by the EU is real in 3-5 years US defense contractors will be irrelevant in Eastern Europe. Too late for Ukraine, just in time to stay out of MAGA’s trade wars and benefit from BYD/Xiaomi/DJI imports.
Tesla is sinking down in Europe, RPA doesn’t want to work with him, Canada made a petition to take his citizenship, he’s shitting his pants crying to his baby mamas about risk of being send to hell, people protests at his saloons and everyone with Tesla is being laughed at and called a nazi.
Poland’s role in resolving this and restraining Russia will be decisive. We should be grateful for this administration’s moral clarity and resolve and sheer courage.
They absolutely need a plan B NOW honestly Europe should be sending troops and arms to the border to just say, this is ridiculous get to your side of the fucking line and go the fuck away, we don't play *this land is mine now* anymore so fuck off. I know I sound stupid, but I can dream!
Xfinity just called and said I haven't thanked them for their service that I pay way too much for.
Is this the new process to thank people you're paying for their services? Can't my payment be a thank you? Shouldn't Musk thank them for their business?
Setting aside the gratuititous insult he tossed in to please Trump, what happened after that tweet makes it seem like Rubio talked to Susie Wiles and Susie talked to somebody else:
It now counts as a major diplomatic victory for 🇺🇸 that Lil Marco got the FM of 🇵🇱 to say “thank you” (sort of) on Xitter.
This totally advances some 🇺🇸 policy goal somehow.
What is it about these assholes always asking for thank you. Ukraine government & citizens are constantly thanking our government & Americans. IF SOMEONE PAYS MUSK $50M FOR STARLINK SERVICES, MUSK SHOULD BE THANKING THEM FOR GETTING RICHER. He didn't give them for free to save their democracy.
So one-on-one combat between a pasty white, thick-middled ketamine abuser and a Napoleon-complexed, botox-injected murderer would decide the fate of the free world? No way 47 passes up the opportunity of pay-per-view proceeds for this one.
Ketamine has its medicinal purposes but prolonged use leads to delusions of grandeur and disassociation. Obviously people think it's like a meth addiction... there are people out there who think weed is the devils lettuce
and NATO forces use Starlink, no word from Rutte or defense ministers about revoking contracts with it and using EU alternatives. Everybody sitting on their hands
Well.. Eutelsat is currently underfinanced to fully compete with Starlink, but positions and efforts on this topic are changing fast.
Safest 10 year bet on stocks in the current economical world is that Eutelsat will become a huge company within a few years time.
Honestly I hope and think they’re preparing for that since November last year. Poland bought and delivered over 40k of Starlinks to Ukraine, paying over 50 mln a year.It’s a low blow to the customers.Especially in Europe which I’m pretty sure,very quickly might drop his ass.
This guy is spewing 100% propaganda. You promote peace by surrendering to the invader Russia? These white supremest love Russia and will do anything to support it.
Personal combat?! He thinks this is an RPG. He has no right to bet a country first off. And honestly, I believe wholeheartedly that he would lose very badly. Putin may be old but he'd take musk, Zelenskyy on the other hand. Actually put the 3 in the ring winner takes all 3 countries.
so you let the bully win. yet another example of Trump & Musk's essential cowardice. Like all bullies, they only pick on those weaker than themselves. When faced with someone who won't back down, they do.
“A stalemate that Ukraine will inevitably lose”…. You know they wouldn’t lose? If America gave them the support they needed…. Then they wouldn’t lose and the dictator Putin would… but they would prefer the dictator win…. So who again doesn’t want peace??
EM saying Ukraine’s entire front line would collapse if he turned off his “gifts” … then, hmmm, he’s now in control of turning off all foreign aid worldwide. Somehow that kinda nullifies the fistfight thing.
why aren't reporters asking the right question, "Mr. President, by 'peace' are you demanding Ukraine surrenders? Wouldn't peace be achieved if Russia simply left Ukraine and stopped bombing them?"
The real story in this tweet is that one person can decide wheather a country loses a war or not. The Musk-Thiel-Vance dream is reality: nations’ critical infrastructure is dependent on companies and not only decide over their fate but will soon take over.
WOW, he thinks he's solely responsible for Ukraine's success and at the same time he says they are going to lose anyway, plus he wants to fight Putin for Ukraine plus insulting Ukraine? That's some next level confusing, denying reality shit. Wtf
Are acolytes like Musk too ignorant to know the lunacy of their words or masters of psychological warfare? Scary answer- it’s not either or, it’s causal. An unintended consequence.
The word fElon is looking for is CAPITULATE.
As for fighting Putin? ROFLMFAO.
I'd still bet on Vlad mopping the floor with him. KGB teaches dirty, no holds barred fighting.
Then tell Trump to put a complete economic boycott on Russia and its allies. And start sending CEO's whose companies violate the boycotts in prison. Its people like you that cause all the suffering in the world.
just curious, WHY now is Musk willing to go one on one. where was this threat or dare say, concern of the slaughter he says earlier?
Many of the counties Trump just ghosted are working on a fix to do away with Musk's Starlink use in Ukraine. Canada dumping Starlink
is that why Musk is speaking out.
In a stalemate that Ukraine will inevitably lose, what the actual f$)(, this is no challenge to Russia this is another declaration of me & trump give up🤬
"Their entire front line would collapse if I turned it off." This is a threat to Ukraine and a show of power to everyone else. He is letting us know how he has the power to turn shit off and cause devastation. He is an authoritarian lunatic.
Not known for his emotional intelligence. I suppose there was no room for that once you added white grievance, to the incel factor, to the Ironman fantasies.
Amerikkka didn't want a woman in charge, fearing she'd be "too emotional". Cut the bullshit, compare dick sizes and get this pissing contest over with. When are the adults going to step in and lead???
Is that Elon Musk who thinks people shouldn't have empathy? The same Elon Musk who turned Starlink off because Ukraine were using it to fight Russia, and all it took was one phonecall from Putin? That Elon Musk?
Lose? They're taking ground back around Pokrovsk, and the ruZZians are running out of everything; they're reduced to using donkeys and horses for re-supply. Russia's economy is on the verge of collapse (Unless dumbfuck donnie and his fascist regime prop them up by lifting sanctions).
Russia already lost. What the F is Musk talking about? Russia is just throwing bodies at Ukraine and we see the numbers of dead. The war could end if Putin pulled out. Musk is a Soviet at this point. Hes using a Russo Propaganda to justify murder, stealing of land, and isolation of Ukraine.
Russian lives, including those of any political opposition, are of no value to Putin's ruling elite.
Hopefully some of them will one day do a Prigozhin, but not bottle out at the last minute this time.
Putin would look great hanging around as a Mussolini impersonator.
Trump just means that militarily Russia will win, they could have nuked on the first day, Putin has likely told trump he is willing to go as far as it takes so the conclusion is Russia will win, history tells a different story but that needs gorilla tactics in an occupied territory.
Sounds like he just said he could turn off Starlink and blind Russia in the Ukraine but is playing god instead. Making millions slaves to Russia is not the answer and it won't stop at Ukraine.
Right? I’m no putin fan, but the man has an 8th dan in judo; musk would have two broken arms before he could tap out.
And i don’t think putin is all bullshido.
He is the bloke down the pub that swears he was on the balcony and holding his arms out telling his mates to "'old me back lads...." when someone knocked his pint.
We all want peace but it has to be the right peace, one negotiated with Ukraine in attendance. What he wants is peace which his autocratic mates can benefit from.
Exactly why Trump’s new thing is rare earth minerals now. Who do you think was in his ear about that. Someone that will perhaps benefit from it. Musk is trying to rule the world which is why he nosing into other governments beside the US. He wants to create dependencies he can rule over.
Greenland is a major military facility formed to protect NATO & Europe against a military attack by Russia
Canada - has rights to major oil & gas reserves and maritime routes that Putin wants
Panama -currently has sanctions against Russian vessels traveling through the canal
@eliothiggins.bsky.social in one breath he can both brag about cars being fully autonomous… Five years ago, landing on Mars, and winning a fight he never showed up for.
It’s less about the demonstrable action and more about the announcement . Little musk can’t be bothered.
...it's actually even stupider. Putin has a legit black belt in judo and still trains. I'm not saying he could still win a formal championship or that his eighth degree black belt is fully earned, but I'd absolutely bet on him over the guy who takes anabolic steroids but doesn't work out.
What claptrap from Musk. I don't believe him or Trump that their motive is a fair peace when they are both doing everything to serve the Russians. What has Putin got over them. Terrifying, nauseating, disgusting.
F-Elon advocating for peace is a ruse! What he’s doing to our government defies peace. He cares only about fulfilling his own agenda. Let Ukraine decide if they’re ready to stop the war.
Of course he doesn't think the Ukraine is worth fighting for. If America is ever in the same position, he won't give a crap for them either.
The Ukrainians care for their country and not just cash and throwing their weight. Their thoughts about their fight are infinitely more important than his.
Just FYI, “the Ukraine” isn’t the correct way to refer to the country. That’s an old Soviet-era construct that implies it’s a territory rather than a sovereign nation. Just plain Ukraine is good.

"Stalemate that Ukraine will inevitably lose"... only if we allow it, you douche. Elon and Trump are buying Putin's bluff hook, line, and sinker. In fact Russia is down to using old Soviet era equipment, supply lines interrupted, and he can't replace men and material as fast as they are being lost.
Keep off the ket son....look at the state of you. You couldn't knock the skin off a bowl of custard let alone take on a warlord. Especially a warlord who already owns you (and your gutbucket boss).
I’m no fan of either Putin it Musk, but have you seen them? If Musk ever did challenge Putin to “one on one physical combat” I’m assuming his only hope was that Vlad would have died laughing.
I’d like to note that our guns are all locked in gun safes with trigger locks on and the ammunition somewhere completely different and also locked up. Gun safety is the first rule of gun ownership.
Taser might be a better option for you. I think they might be easier to get than a gun. And while they are less lethal, you are less likely to accidentally kill an innocent bystander if you are attacked. And it’s so screwed up that I lay awake at night and think through the scenarios.
This is why their oppressive acts are not having the affect they wanted which was people turning on each other. Depriving people of basic needs is the nazi, soviet, means of fueling hate between all peoples.
We will stand together! We will support each other.
I increasingly get the feeling that you're right about this, which is amazing because I feel like accurately assessing what your enemies will do in response is 101-level stuff and they didn't even manage to do that.
Except for Hungary and Slovakia, those are our allies and they're getting their shit together, finally. And Ukraine is the largest country in Europe, by land (Russian Federation is at least 70% Asian). We need to applaud Europe for supporting Ukraine.
Exactly…Trump, JD and Elon and their collective meddling, bullying, and stupidity has been a boon to European unity and, closer to home, given new life to Canadian liberals…these idiots truly believed the opposite would’ve happened…
#elon #musk #trump the cowardly fuckers ignore the best option, to arm brave #Ukraine to the teeth and let them finish off #russia and their evil fascist dictator, and that is because they all-together are #nazi bastards, only intent on #kleptocracy and rule the world with similarly minded men.
Okay if you want that
Why not ask Putin to end the conflict and go back to Russia to restore the legal border.
Why is our plan to ask Ukraine to fold , cede territory and beg for mercy?
It’s the same line of thought as Russ Vought saying the new American revolution will be bloodless if the democrats allow it to be. “I’m gonna win anyway, but I won’t hurt you so badly if you just give up now.”
Well, there’s a conflict of interest don’t you think Elon could take down Skylink and stop the war and he’s also trying to tear down the American government. get this man out of our government.
Putin has been fighting in Ukraine for four years and has barely taken over twenty percent of it. He is running out of money, of troops, and is actually losing control of other countries he has taken over. He was losing until these two jackasses decided to roll over for him.
Putin is getting his ass whipped. Over 820,000 casualties, almost 8,000 tanks, his air defense is collapsing, ⅓ of his Black Sea fleet has been sunk and #Krasnov aka DJT is his last hope.
Cat’s to get your sttention🙄 💙🇺🇦🇨🇦🇲🇽💙
Yeah, and when it will make everything worse, elontrumpists will respond with: "Well, you should have give up 3 years ago, but instead you gave putin all 'LEGAL' reasons to bomb, say, Estonia. 'Everyone would do the same!'"
Why would I ever care about what a billionaire with room temperature Iq thinks? Plus he is playing both sides with starlink. But that would only be found out if Ukraine wins I guess.

#Trump and #Musk are about to destroy #US defense and intelligence markets.
Big opportunity for European Players to win market shares
We are in big trouble if Republicans don't stop him.
They want groveling at their feet. Disgusting. We’re a joke.
Is this the new process to thank people you're paying for their services? Can't my payment be a thank you? Shouldn't Musk thank them for their business?

Mr. Sikorski is a gentleman.
This totally advances some 🇺🇸 policy goal somehow.
This dipshit is completely out of control.
He needs a fucking reminder.
I think its about time @bsky.app make a concerted effort to take over as the venue for official posting.

It makes me utterly sick to my stomach what Republic have turned this country into.
Safest 10 year bet on stocks in the current economical world is that Eutelsat will become a huge company within a few years time.
Starlink is worthless for anyone if it comes with the conditional the owner can shut it off on a whim.
But France helped as did others. They believed in the concept of freedom & democracy.
It was a hellish war. But freedom has a way of getting under peoples skin.
i see it all over social media but never coming from a journalist….
But please continue about the fistfight.

No wonder things are so fucked.
I'm all for it. Not a fan of either one of them.
Wouldn't miss them one bit.
May this regime's demise be swift and certain.
And this is why we don’t have monopolies, folks! And yes - I am yelling!
This assohole needs to learn some new tricks.
Cissy SpaceX has worked very hard to earn our disgust. And he's stuck with it.

Putin, a former KGB Agent and Judo Black Belt, would kill with zero effort.
I hate this stupid man destroying everything.
It's up to them, innit mate?
If he can turn off starlink during a hissy fit, no thanks.
Sure, Space Karen.
Ketamine is a hell of a drug.

A 12 year old response to a 12 year old horseshit statement like this.

Musk is a Russian asset.
Putin is terrified of the Europeans taking the lead to support Ukraine. This is not at all what the republicans and their master, putin, expected.
Our enemies aren’t going to hesitate to utilize violence so why should we?
It's a liability if you aren't ready.
Good luck!
Handguns are less effective and much harder to shoot well.
The left should not cede the force of arms to MAGA.
People without the capacity for empathy don’t understand why neighbors would stand together.
We will stand together! We will support each other.

You never forgive a traitor, the only way out for a traitor is the grave !!!

So there’s that….

...against a former KGB agent.
This is like Justin Hammer going up against Red Skull.
Can we set up a GoFundMe page to make this happen? Elon won't even have to put a dime towards it.
Eternal deflecting of any blame. Classic.
I think this says everything about this little being ...
Who does he think he is, William Marshall?
I know I would and I am a woman…
He is the weakest most childish character
