I wonder if, seeing Challengers closer to the front line, indicates that the Abrahms are now actively ready in reserve.

'Early fall'. That's now surely.
 
CNN is reporting that Musk was aware of a Ukranian suicide boat drone attack on Russian ships in Crimea a few months ago, and while the suicide boats were on route, Musk ordered his engineers to turn of Starlink service to Ukraine, the boats lost connection and all washed up on shore or were captured by the Russians

Not quite - he was asked to turn it on for the area around Sevastopol and refused.

Well that's what cnn is saying

Which news source is that one

The source is Musk himself. He has posted that it wasn't activated in that area and he was asked to turn it on and refused, which somewhat contradicts what CNN reported. Whichever is true, he's a complete ****
 
James is covering on LBC at moment, he's still on one of his long monologues.

He is saying that Musk ordered it shutdown and they washed up on shore, not that Musk refused to enable it to enable the attack.

IMO thats what he was after all along
He has had and retains loads of fingers into US government money pies
 
I suspect those little satellites would make good target practice for Russian ground based lasers if they actually felt they were a strategic threat.

Easily destroyed for very little cost to Russia.

A Russian Laser is tantamount to the pen I have on my desk for presentations I would imagine.

Laser beams make great pinpoint bomb targeting.. especially those targets emitting laser light..
Harm missiles away!
