What exactly do you think a lame duck Trump who only has executive power at that point is going to do?
That’s a great question.
With or without a majority in Congress does Trump have an agenda moving forward?

Musk approached Trump to slow down Starlink in Ukraine SpaceX founder had publicly blamed president for chaos over restrictions, but sources say he initiated them
Sounds treason-y of Musk really approached the White House with a plan to aid Russian war effort.
The next Dem president needs to nationalized SpaceX and starlink on day one. Can’t have a private company or private citizen able to put a thumb on the scale in favor of America’s adversary.

Over 500,000 EU visas are still being issued to Russians each year. Spain, France, and Italy issue the vast majority of all those visas. But now Ukraine has implemented a solution.
The only sanctions that work are Ukrainian sanctions.

Zelenskyy on Starlink operations: test in EU has proved restrictions apply only in Ukraine
Khrystyna Bondarieva , STANISLAV POHORILOV — 17 October, 14:56
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said a test conducted by Ukraine in EU countries has confirmed that the restrictions on its use of Starlink have been imposed as part of a planned operation.
Source: Zelenskyy answering questions from journalists online, as reported by European Pravda
Details: Zelenskyy said interceptors designed to take down jet-powered Shahed drones using Starlink are currently unable to function due to a speed limit of 161 km/h (approx. 100 mph).
Quote from Zelenskyy: "To understand whether these are really technical problems at SpaceX, or whether it is some kind of operation or agreement to restrict us, to disconnect us, to prevent us from defending ourselves and protecting our people... we sent a couple of cars with Starlink to the territory of European Union countries, and they drove at speeds of over 180 km/h where permitted. Starlink works. We have the corresponding records and the corresponding evidence."
Details: Zelenskyy said this implies the restrictions are in effect in Ukraine but not in EU countries.
"In other words, this is a planned operation," he said.
The president separately emphasised Starlink's importance for both civilian safety and for troops on the front line, where it helps ensure the delivery of food and water to soldiers at their positions.
Zelenskyy also noted that a dialogue on this issue is ongoing at both the military and diplomatic levels.
"We're in contact with everyone, including SpaceX. At the moment, no one there is responding to our military or the Ministry of Defence. At various levels, we're being told these are technical issues. But as I've already said, these technical issues are affecting Ukraine; there are no such issues in the European Union. We've verified this," he said.
Background:
According to The Telegraph, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk approached Donald Trump with the idea of slowing down Starlink operations in Ukraine.
Speaking at the White House on 16 October, Trump said he does not believe that either he or Musk is responsible for Ukraine losing access to Starlink. The Pentagon has not publicly explained the reasons for the restrictions.

Trump showing his true colors now on Ukraine.
This story may not be a big story in the US. It will define the US for a generation in Europe.
Fortunately I’m America First so who needs allies or good relations with the second biggest economic bloc on the planet. Doesn’t impact me or mine.
