Why would it need US ones?
* you use everything you can in a war
* there's something to be learned from outside data by your supposed adversary like comparing it to your own (if your own satellites are good enough for that)
* headlines like these are great for propaganda at home and abroad
“Russia continues to prove with its cruelty, day after day, that nothing has changed for them in Moscow - they are not thinking about how to end the war, but how to destroy and capture more *while the world allows them to continue.*”
I'm not sure I can think of any others that would have the same info.
The US is a Russian asset.
But:
Two of the largest ... companies ... are Maxar & Planet.
Much of this is commercial, and can be acquired through third party resellers, apparently.
My question is why doesn't Ukraine have it via a second European source????
Reckless endangerment charges and arrest warrants are needed
It’s hard enough to keep track of what’s what. What’s up or down or true or false. Please let’s all check what we share.
This is aiding and abetting the enemy. #TREASON at the highest level.
Meanwhile, the dying continues. A once-proud defender of freedom takes its place… on the other side
Under Trump, our country has turned evil.
Pax Americana? Over.
Pox to America? Happening.
Gotta do something, anything to get this crap turned around.
In less than 6 weeks, 🍊💩, Elona-DOGE, JD Pance, Marco Rubles & GOP made a mockery of USA & it's global alliances, economy is tanking, measles outbreak, plane crashes, etc.
FUK 🍊
It’s Clear. He’s a Russian asset. There isn’t any other topic that we should be focused on right now.
He needs to be removed from office. They all need to go.
The people who do it don't have to do it. If they have any integrity at all that you have to stand up and say "hell no I will not send America's missiles to Russia."

Because of what you are saying is correct, then Trump authorised this satellite intelligence to be given to the Russians, knowing it would kill Ukranians.
A declaration of war against the West
Trump is Putins gagged and oiled up gimp bitch.
Corrected it for you.
It was business, “business” is the all absolving word from any wrongdoing. But this is not about business it’s about spite as so many of his policies are, spite, how unbecoming 🙄
Call the White House and tell them that we do not help War criminals! We did not vote for this!
WE WILL NOT FORGET.

Still he can also pay the gold back to Putin once robs Fort Knox
I hope there are White Hats in place to do the right thing...
We have become the enemy of the good in the world.
Over the news. Trump
Is deliberately killing innocent people. cunt
The Republicans in power are never going to charge him; it's up to the people to protect US. If we don't stand up and fight back we're history.
