Apparently Trump didn’t know Pentagon paused Ukraine aid back in February. Reuters: U.S. military aid to Ukraine was paused in early Feb — not by Trump, but by Defense Secretary Hegseth.

He seemed to know of the shipments being halted after he ordered them to be halted.

As a Linux user I thought this was something different in my notifications

Windows seem a popular accident also

He should be careful. These sort of regimes tend to have long knives

I don't think Putin gives a fuck about Musk.

It really depends on what Putin thinks of Musk.

Nationalizing musk's assets really would be a broken clock moment for them imo

Well.. at least for when the government stops being fascist, that is

If Musk fully crosses Trump, I wouldn't be surprised if suddenly starlink and spacex were labeled as threats to national security.

Musk still has money. He won't get the ax until that's gone because Trump doesn't realize he can just take Musk's assets. I'm sure there's plenty of legitimate reasons to sic most of the 3 and 4 letter agencies against Musk and his assets.

Don't be ridiculous. Musk is part of the oligarchs controlling Trump.

Senility

So this is just trump gaslighting then. Or he really has that short of a memory.

donvict stopped shipments himself over two months ago, shortly after that meeting at the white house. src

I thought it would be Musk would be the first scapegoat. Öets see who'll finish the race first

Seems like they are setting Hegseth up to take a few falls to consolidate blame.

Oh no! Poor Mr Hegseth has found himself to be the fall guy for the U.S. administration. That's the juicy reward of being a fascist and buddying up with even more powerful fascists, I guess.

I heard that Hegseth was seen in some DC grocery stores in the early mornings, switching the price tags on eggs, making them more expensive

The difference between a unilateral decision that blindsided the cult leader and a coordinated decision where the messaging is supposed to divert any future blame away from the cult leader is easy: was the person supposedly at fault fired? No? Then it's all just talk, since the overall outcome nicely aligns with the policy goals of the red team.
