    He must not keep up with the news if he doesn’t realize DOGE has been a failure. Unless he’s actually signaling that he wants Trump to cripple the FCC into uselessness while not saving the taxpayers anything.

      Nothing about DOGE has to do with saving taxpayers money. If they wanted to do that they would get rid of oil subsidies or make billionaires pay taxes. It’s 100% about dismantling regulations so the rich can continue to get richer.

      Or you could just read the first paragraph of an article you are guna put the effort into expressing your opinion over. The chair of the FCC is saying if DODGE guts the FCC under the guise of reducing the operating cost to save on tax revenues then all they will be doing is reducing the country’s access to affordable high speed internet. Subsequently pushing more people to use starlink.

      This took more waaaay more time to write than it took to read. Maybe instead of needing information spoon fed to you, you could save others who share this platform the hassle of being your personal chatgpt by simply skimming an article you could see yourself forming enough of an opinion to comment on.🍻

        I have no idea where you’re getting that tone. He wants to gut it. Specific to the rural broadband he wants to funnel money into starlink instead. He’s not saying “if DOGE cuts…” he’s saying let’s do it. He’s not saying “under the guise…” he wants to do it openly. He’s not saying “it’ll reduce access to affordable…” he’s saying that is the solution and the government needs to cut everything else.

      Yes, that is what he’s suggesting, and right after that, massive censorship follows

      Hurt low income people, mortgage our future, sell off national assets to enrich oligarchs, personal enrichment. Yep, that’s about the speed for DODE
