Starlink should be banned from European markets on national security grounds.
Anything requiring Starlink should be shut out of the European market, and sanctions should be considered against all relevant actors.

Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency.
It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

In 1970 the UK and Norway were roughly equal, almost no debt, and owned all their Public Services.
Now the UK owns nothing and has £3tn of debt.
While Norway still owns everything and has the equivilant of +£18.42tn.
That's how privatisation 'works'.

Interesting take. Simon goes on to point out that the 3 main news channels dropped coverage and didn’t pick it up again. I think it’s just as likely that Trump is trying to deflect blame from himself for having fired a whole raft of federal employees responsible for safety, oversight, etc. Or both.
Worth considering whether Trump's act today was all intended to divert public attention completely away from the confirmation hearings for Kash Patel and Tulsi Gabbard, the two nominees likely to face greatest difficulty entering his government.
