This is the headquarters of that government agency, which has become the target of a monthslong pressure campaign by the U.S. government in lockstep with Starlink.

We got internal cables, notes and other records that show how U.S. diplomats have intervened on behalf of Starlink in at least four other developing nations. All while the U.S. has withdrawn foreign aid from those same countries.
@smith.senate.gov @amyklobuchar.com @repangiecraig.bsky.social This is corrupt, criminal behavior. How much taxpayer time and money is our government spending to...make Elon even richer?
None of these countries understand that by using starlink they are giving Musk control!
He can at any time block them from receiving or sending information ! Maybe even spy on them!
You can bet this is why he tweeted about revoking educational tax assistance from Liberia a while back. I wondered what the root of that message was. Now it's clear.
The outrageous conduct of the orange caricature never ceases. His cohort’s never ending greed at the cost to children and disadvantaged people should be stopped immediately. Please stop the grift, Congress. Represent the people, not the grotesque excuse for a convicted felon.
Here's a question for @justinhendrix.bsky.social @joshtpm.bsky.social and others. We have career diplomats, including ambassadors, acting directly to further the interests of Musk and other oligarchs, instead of the US. What room should there be for these people once the regime changes?
Remember when a Clinton Foundation donor asked the Clinton State Department to expedite a diplomatic passport for a totally legitimate purpose and the SD turned them down and the DC sky was blotted out for two days by the clouds & shadows? Different times, my friend, different times.
Great work. However, it’s sad that it was all so predictable, and so much worse than what would have happened if Chicago had elected Al Capone as Mayor.
We wanted to know if this is what the State Department normally does. Turns out no.
Ten current and former agency officials said what we found is an alarming departure from standard diplomacy — because of both the tactics used and the person who would benefit most from them.
“If this was done by another country, we absolutely would call this corruption,” said Kristofer Harrison, a former high-level State Department official in the George W. Bush administration. “Because it is corruption.”
It's not even corruption. Corruption is when someone is bribed or similar. This is just simply Elon Musk using then state department as his own mafia. The word corruption doesn't even cover it.
hey @ericlipton.nytimes.com see how this Bush admin official calls this out as blatant and obvious corruption despite there being no notarized or publicly announced agreement or documented quid pro quo?
do you see how you’re allowed to publish that? can you print that in your “paper of record” now?
Brave #FBI whistle blower has said #PETERTEIL & #ELONMUSK are under the influence of #PUTIN. This is the reason the USA has been almost destroyed in 4 months.
Also #SHAME on @marjorietaylorg.bsky.social for saying that the cop that killed #GEORGEFLOYD should be pardoned

Starlink didn’t respond to a request for comment. The White House said Musk has nothing to do with deals involving Starlink and Trump does not tolerate conflicts of interest.
If this was done in another country I would assume it was just another lawless dictatorship run by guys in military fatigues, berets and mirrored sunglasses. I think the term most often used is 'third world dictatorship'.
Let’s call orange skin and ridiculous hair ‘orange skin and ridiculous hair’ while we’re at it because that’s what other countries are calling them, too
I caught that too and I’m wondering now if Musk already had contacts in the state dept doing his bidding , I could see him doing this under Biden’s nose and Trump probably wasn’t aware but also doesn’t care anyway.
📌 Someday, there will be retribution for their callousness, treachery and greed… until then, lives lost, lives destroyed. Humanity must endure, engage and triumph.
Elon Musk is the last person on Earth to have control of Telecommunications. It will come out that he (Starlink) had something to do with the 2024 bogus election results.

trump: the most corrupt action possible
Treason level of corruption
An independent investigation led by ICAO should be conducted.

The time begins where corporations start ruling and demolishing democracies. The human rights treaties is openly and globally ignored!
