Received briefings from Minister of Defense of Ukraine Yevhenii Khmara and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Mykhailo Drapatyi. Unfortunately, our units have been recording significant disruptions to Starshield’s operations over the territory of Ukraine for several days now – along the entire front line and in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. Specifically, systematic speed restrictions are being imposed on Starshield, limiting it to 161 kilometers per hour (100 miles per hour). The Ukrainian military have already investigated the circumstances, and these are not random errors but systematic speed restrictions. For us, this primarily means a significant complication in intercepting Russian jet-powered drones. Unfortunately, there have already been strikes that got through because our interception systems cannot reach sufficient speeds and are unable to intercept in time. Unfortunately, this is helping the Russians kill more Ukrainians and carry out more accurate strikes against Ukraine. We are trying to establish all the circumstances with the American side.

Private equity bought the hospital. Then it cut the nursing staff. Then it sold the building to a real estate trust and leased it back at higher rates. Then it loaded the hospital with debt from the acquisition. Then it declared bankruptcy, walked away with fees intact, and the hospital closed. This happened to dozens of American hospitals. None of it required a single Chinese investor. None of it required Russian interference. It required a legal and regulatory framework that permitted it, built over decades by legislators whose campaigns were funded by the industry doing it. The enemies list they gave you is long and detailed and international. The one they left off is short and domestic and much closer to the money.
