FCC commissioner writes op-ed titled, “It’s time for Trump to DOGE the FCC“
“The FCC is a prime candidate for DOGE-style reform,” Nathan Simington writes.
We’re gonna be so fucked. Get ready for shittier experiences with internet providers and cell companies.
Is this gonna be worse than what A Shit Pie die.
Remember Lina Khan? She was there only a few months ago. Depressing as all fuck how quickly they’ve undone her work.
Edit: I mixed up the FTC and FCC
Lina Khan was dope, but she was at the FTC.
That's the FTC.
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.
It's been a resounding success for The Heritage Foundation, the billionaire funded think tank.
The country is in chaos, the economy has been torpedoed, and their puppet is openly defying any law he doesn't like, even from SCOTUS. Who made the Office of US President a King, with absolute immunity from prosecution while performing "Official Acts." Which SCOTUS will decide the legality of. With a 6 to 3 Neocon bias.
Now the fascists can declare Martial Law, via the Insurrection Act, and rebuild The United States into their Theocratic Fascist Kingdom, with themselves as openly declared Royalty.
The "taxpayers" are peasants to these people, literally. Subhuman drones that exist to generate profit for Nobles. They believe none of us should have ever been allowed an opinion on anything to with government. The billionaires literally want to own and rule their own fiefdoms, and the people who live in it, like the Feudal Barons and Earls of Medieval Europe. The peasants will live in barracks, on factory grounds, and will be compensated with company credit. Like the good old "Company Town" days. A select favored few will be allowed to be merchants, accountants, lawyers, etc. with some degree of autonomy. The Neo Clergy.
I'm not joking, not exaggerating. The ones who back and fund Trump, and his ilk, want exactly that.
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.
Or, if you have nothing positive or productive to say, you can keep your mouth shut and not be condescending, immature, insecure cunt.
Your call.
It's the latter one. They want to destroy all government.
Hurt low income people, mortgage our future, sell off national assets to enrich oligarchs, personal enrichment. Yep, that’s about the speed for DODE
To him and his type DOGE cuts are wildly successful because gubment bad.

"I suck at my job, cum save me daddy Trump 🤤"
Before anyone jumps on this guy's bandwagon cuz its fuck musk sentiment, look at his proposal from a net neutrality perspective. The chairman who opposed passing 2017's title II net neutrality legislation is proposing more crack downs on everyone's access to alternate ISP options.
THE FCC HAS AMD ALWAYS WILL BE IN THE POCKET OF THE MAJOR INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS WHOSE MAIN GOAL IS TO BOTTLENECK EVERYONE INTO ONLY HAVING ACCESS TO THE INTERNET THROUGH ONE PROVIDER FOR AN AREA SO THEY CAN IMPLEMENT POLICIES LIKE BADWIDTH THROTTLING, CENSORSHIP AND ELIMINATING PIRATING CHANNELS. The only defense we have against losing net neutrality is by lowering their customer retention rates when customers jump to other companies. Which is only effective when there aren't regulations limiting the number of competing providers.
There are plenty of reasons and justifications for saying fuck musk but this is not one that is worth the potential cost to your net neutrality.
Nah, fuck Musk.
Brendan Carr is not a smart man
He knows exactly what he's doing, and him and all his buddies are making millions off it.
"Not a smart man" underestimates him
He's a loyal, useful sycophant. He wants to be very rich.
He’s a dummy.
