The inevitable, dangerous X factor. 1/...🧵in part, via David Frum:
NYT reports that Elon #Musk personally thwarted a #Ukraine military operation he disapproved of.
At this point, Musk's interference to thwart Ukraine battle plans is not any kind of economic action. It is an assertion of a personal foreign policy, in defiance of the United States, whose citizenship he sought and to which he swore loyalty in 2002.
He’s right but the bigger question is why all this wasn’t evaluated long ago? Instead, we opened the big double doors of privatization and gave him unfettered and unregulated access and operations to one of our most critical sectors!
And here we are!
