Elon, here you go again making false and completely unfounded accusations without providing any specifics. Thats the kind of response one would expect from a conspiracy theorist. What oligarch? What treason?
Let me help you out with the facts: I dont take/have never taken money from any money from oligarchs Ukrainian or other otherwise.
I do run a nonprofit foundation. The http://HereRightMattersFoundatiom.org to help Ukraine defend itself from Russias unprovoked attack on Feb 24, 2022. I served in the military for nearly 22 years and my loyalty is to supporting the U.S. Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. Thats why I reported presidential corruption when I witnessed an effort to steal an election. That report was in classified channels and when called by Congress to testify about presidential corruption I did so, as required by law.
You, Elon, appear to believe you can act with impunity and are attempting to silence your critics. Im not intimidated.

Born in Ukraine, the three-year old Vindman and his brother were brought to the US by their father.

I think he needs to find a very strong tort lawyer to sue Musk's ass for defamation

I'm pissed it didn't hurt trump a bit. In fact, trump wears it as a badge of honor. Still pisses me off.

Please correct your post. Eugene Vindman was elected to Congress, not his brother Alexander.
