The Trump administration is telling states they will be shut out of a $42 billion broadband deployment fund if they set the rates that Internet service providers receiving subsidies are allowed to charge people with low incomes.
The latest version of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) FAQ on the grant program, released today, is a challenge to states considering laws that would force Internet providers to offer cheap plans to people who meet income eligibility guidelines. One state already has such a law: New York requires ISPs with over 20,000 customers in the state to offer $15 broadband plans with download speeds of at least 25Mbps, or $20-per-month service with 200Mbps speeds.
You stupid fucks here were crying so hard about “Genocide” and Killer Kamala that you let an actual threat to the world gain the most powerful position in the world. Fuck all of you. This is your fault

Trust me bro, those freaks you’re talking about will find their MLP Filth (no judgment) regardless. The ironic thing about all these draconian right wing censorship attempts is that it will most likely squeeze out major companies from profits while the high seas gain an ever increasing “market share.” It’s never been easier, and they’ll never be able to stop it.

Well, at least the genocide is over and groceries are cheaper! We did it Patrick!
Shame genocide is so unpopular with anyone who might vote democrat. If only someone tried to tell the dems that doing fuckall to improve the material conditions of your constituents, expanding republican policies we all agreed were bad when Trump did it, and sending the cops to kick the shit out of the politically activated and organized youth would decrease voter turnout.

Voter turn out was kind if an issue. I get we had record turn out but non voting is still very large
All those “did biden drop out?” searches the night of the election are haunting.
I don’t understand how so many people are so profoundly ignorant and stupid. I guess a poor educational foundation followed by shit media would do it?
My friends and associates tend to be pretty educated, literate, and wealthy. I don’t know what’s going on down in the depths.
Yep. I have heard some rather “centrist” types and a whole lot of low info types ascribing blame for inflation (and the companies using it as an excuse to price-gouge) on Biden, when our country did fairly well compared to international numbers and recovered fairly quickly. Doesn’t matter though - Taco said a bunch of shit about it on his campaign, and these people think Biden pulled some lever somewhere to make their groceries go up.
Doesn’t help that a lot of WELLAXETUALLY types will pop up to do some bothsiderism and talk about “the status quo” and how the numbers are not really the entire picture and so on, further muddying the waters.
Exactly this. Democrats basically went: “I voted for the dems 4 years ago and my life didn’t get better, why bother voting”
So cheap broadband is more important than supporting a genocider?
Who’s a genocider? Why isn’t anyone calling Trump that but they call kamilla that. When she was never in power. Vice president doesn’t really do anything.
Because it’s too depressing to them to admit both “sides” we have are equally against the will of the people and 100% OWNED by the ultra-rich who OWN - in the most literal sense - the country at this point. We - as in the people being a nation represented in government - fucking LOST.
I’ll help: Trump is a genocider too.
Want to know what a genocider is? One who either directly, or materially, supports a genocide.
Both options were supporting a genocide-er unless I missed the news that Trump stopped it like he promised
That’s my point.
When said genocide is occurring in full force anyway, sure.
Which it is, and has been for some time.
Yes, its the voters fault.
Its not Biden or Kamala’s fault, for supporting the genocide, for prioritizing arming a genocide over domestic affairs and issues, for prioritizing Israel over America.
God I wish I had this level of intellect. Must be so nice to not have to deal with pesky things like critical thinking or thoughts.
Yes yes it is the voters fault. (Not an American, just see too much of their elections )
Trump was much worse than either Biden or Harris would have been. Harris did repeatedly speak out against the abuse in Palestine and claimed a 2 state solution was the only way forward.
Trump? Literally supporting Israel and wants resorts where the Palestinians are. This is madness to let the voters of the hook for this
Harris represented the democratic party. When you speak out against they very thing you’re facilitating, you just show your constituents that your words are worthless. Same deal with dems speaking out against ICE in trump pt I and then voting to fund it under Trump and again under Biden.
A 2 state solution has been dead on arrival for decades.
