Musk Has Triggered A Corporate Deregulation Bomb

A #Delaware bill would award #ElonMusk $56 billion, shield corporate executives from liability, and strip away voting #power from shareholders.

"If lawmakers don’t enact the #law, which was written by Musk’s own lawyers, the billionaire mogul and his allies are threatening a mass exodus of companies out of the state."

Looks like we should all be contacting Oooh media.

Ooh media refused the anti-coal & gas ad but accepted the anti-renewables ad.

BTW, that Advance sponsored ad which Newcastle Herald "took down" recently, was actually taken down at the end of its paid run. Not because of the negative backlash at the disinformation. 🤬

Elon Musk has wanted a #government shutdown in part because it would make it easier to eliminate the jobs of hundreds of thousands of federal workers.

“You know none of this is about saving #money, right?” says a #Republican familiar with the behind-the-scenes push from #Musk.

“It’s all about destroying a liberal power base.”

Study: Popular Low-Income #Broadband Program Killed By Trumplicans Saved Taxpayers More #Money Than It Cost

"The FCC’s Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) was unsurprisingly very popular... (the majority of ACP participants were in #red states) & [the #GOP] didn’t want #Dems to use it as an #election season issue...

...the $7-$8 billion annual taxpayer cost of the program generated between $28.9 & $29.5 billion in savings"

Headline and text: Study: Popular Low-Income Broadband Program Killed By Trumplicans Saved Taxpayers More Money Than It Cost from the to-dumb-to-understand-downstream-benefits dept Fri, Mar 7th 2025 05:24am - Karl Bode Last year Trumplicans killed a popular program that provided poor people with $30 off of their monthly broadband bill. The FCC’s Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) was unsurprisingly very popular, with more than 23 million Americans benefitting at its peak. At the time, the GOP claimed they were simply looking to save money. The real reason, of course, was that the ACP was popular with their constituents (the majority of ACP participants were in red states) and they didn’t want Dems to use it as an election season issue. But a new report by The Brattle Group (spotted by telecom industry consultant Doug Dawson) found that the $7-$8 billion annual taxpayer cost of the program generated between $28.9 and $29.5 billion in savings thanks to expanded access to affordable internet and remote telehealth services.
