Trump admin 'destroying' US democracy with 'autocratic, terrorist version of Christian nationalism'

There are no reports that &quot;bandwidth&quot; was limited. Zelenski complains (1) that the Pentagon&#39;s StarShield stopped providing advance warnings of Russian launches of missiles and (2) that when his drones crossed into Russian airspace they lost connection with that network&#39;s system for targeting objects. There&#39;s nothing particularly &quot;technological&quot; about such information, and assuming it functioned for Elon Musk is a serious mistake for the domain and range of these strategic functions. He does not own his interest in Russian starlink autonymously, and Ukraine limited his freedom to bill the services at the outbreak of hostilities in 2022. The Pentagon is unable to explain why the alert-system failed on two occasions, so Trump&#39;s control over the Pentagon is also a factor of this failure by the command. The Russians also upgraded their satellite network deliberately to enable better coordinates between paths and targets between the gound and air, to explain how the lower speed threshold also denied permission to Ukraine&#39;s drones as soon as they relied on Russia&#39;s signal, not StarShield&#39;s information. Neither belongs in Musk&#39;s jurisdiction. Lower orbits and more satellites are designed for more comprehensive geography supporting uninterrupted service.<br><br>Zelenski&#39;s complaint that Hegseth won&#39;t sign the release of Patriot launchers that Europe paid for is a sign of little trust between them, and the Pentagon is surely loath to admit that Ukraine has become defenseless against Russian missiles while its drone-defenses are challenged by faster, higher paths on Russian threats in order to push the narrative that Putin wants to buy time because Zelenski has him down at the ropes. Zelenski blames the major of Kyiv for not preparing him for these alerts by controlling the city better, sparking protests against the mayor. That&#39;s his response to Putin wanting someone with Powers of Attorney to sign for Ukraine before watching Trump score the Nobel Prize by attacking Iran in the middle of the night or after locking up Maduro before showing him the charges. The remaining population in Kyiv wants to know why their safety was the first compromise here. We keep hearing about the deal but aren&#39;t seeing the art in conversations too sensitive to discuss publicly.

It is not Pres Trump<br>It is a coordinated process by the left news media the Dem DSA party the EU group big picture internal groups <br>Money from ngos open borders etc<br>Legacy media continues to provide misinformation <br>Dangerous rhetoric for Western world <br>America is for democracy and rule of law

I&#39;m a US/Swiss citizen and liberal. I detest Trump. But this discussion is really over the top. There are a lot of serious problems with the US leadership. As a lawyer, I&#39;m most concerned about the erosion of the rule of law. But these problems can be overstated and, as here, they often are. The US government has shown resiliency, and the US in many ways is more stable than most of Europe right now. France and Germany, particularly, should really be focused on their own crises right now.
