Investigate Elon Musk's Control Over Military Satellite Access

Investigate Elon Musk's role in cutting Ukraine's access to the Starshield military satellite system. A private citizen with no security clearance or elected mandate appears to have the ability to disable a Pentagon communications system in the middle of an active war. That is not a gray area. That is a national security crisis.
Musk controls the Starlink satellites that the military's Starshield system depends on. When Ukraine lost access, Musk immediately deflected blame to the Pentagon, but his own infrastructure is the foundation the whole system runs on. Hobbling Ukraine's satellite communications will cost lives on the front lines and reduce Ukraine's ability to strike Russian fuel and ammunition supplies. This happened while Trump was publicly calling for Ukraine's president to be removed from office. The timing is not a coincidence.
No private contractor should have the power to switch off a military system serving an ally in wartime. Congress must demand a full accounting of what happened, who made the decision, and what authority Musk actually holds over systems the Pentagon pays for. The American people need answers.
