Today's Starlink Ratfuck Up until a few days ago Ukraine used Starlink's high velocity Starshield service to defend their country. In the middle of the night, with no warning, during a Russian attack Starshield was cut off. People died. Starshield still has not been restored. Today they sent out Rubio to muddy the water. saying Ukraine DOES NOT have access to Starshield, implying they never did. Fact is, Ukraine is cut off, and people are dying. https://www.ukrinform.net/rubric-polytics/4175635-rubio-says-ukraine-does-not-have-access-to-starshield.html

Here is a Daily Beast report on the latest mash up of word salad from Marco Rubio on the matter of cutting off Starlink to Ukraine. "No. I mean, I don't know what Zelensky said. I'm not sure Zelensky knows what he's talking about, but it wasn't deliberate...Rubio acknowledged that the service had slowed in Ukraine but rejected suggestions that the U.S. was responsible. "It sort of happened"... Starshield is a totally different product..." https://www.thedailybeast.com/marco-rubio-erupts-at-key-ally-in-heated-outburst ALT: https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/marco-rubio-erupts-key-ally-181938168.html

@mastodonmigration@mastodon.online Rubio is trying to lay low, avoiding as much controversy as he can, hoping he can emerge from the catastrophic 2nd Trump term looking like a “responsible” candidate. In other words, a weasel.
