What if every country banned Elon Musk's Starlink ground stations because he uses it to help Putin? How long would it take to bankrupt Starlink? What banks would be willing to buy it out of bankruptcy for a few pennies on the dollar?

What an absolute nightmare. A high school student saw his friends crash their Cybertruck and rushed to help, but was only able to rescue one of them because the car's doors would not open from the outside. He watched his three other friends burn to death. oaklandside.org/2025/03/18/c...

It’s been six days since Chief Justice Roberts’s “administrative” stay in the foreign aid cases.
