This is silly. USAID was investigating the usage of Starlink in Ukraine, which by the way Musk provided completely free of charge at a time when no one else was doing anything for Ukraine.

DOGE found that USAID has actually spent taxpayer dollars to funding terrorists.

I have no idea how we try to connect these dots to be “personal”. USAID was a sham and it’s been exposed.

I think maybe you're missing the negatives Musk/Starlink did in Ukraine.

And they alleged terrorism. They did not show it, FISA and other courts aren't engaged, and they have Flynn, a foreign agent, making those claims and boosting them.

How did DOGE determine that the funds went to terrorists? Do you know? I certainly don't. I want to know, so we can put the right guardrails in place for the future, and frankly, I don't trust musk at all. He lies whenever it's convenient.

Sunlight is the best disinfectant and we should be ensuring it's shining everywhere.
