President Donald Trump secretly called billionaire tech mogul Elon Musk to beg for the removal of crippling speed restrictions on a military-grade SpaceX system used by Ukrainian defense forces, U.S. officials have revealed.
Trump reached out directly to the SpaceX founder on Wednesday, demanding he undo the slowdown on Starshield—a defense-focused variant of the Starlink network vital to Ukraine's front-line war effort against Russia, according to the Wall Street Journal.
