Axis of Evil Goes After Musk

(00:00.802)

Did I mention yesterday how much I can’t stand government bureaucrats? I think I did. I’m going to give you another example right now. The axis of evil, the axis of evil, my axis of evil. Big business, politicians, mainstream media, working hand in hand against the American people. They are the most frightening axis of evil out there.

You know, again, the media tries to stir up a boogeyman under everybody’s closet and under your bed. Vladimir Putin, Hamas, this one, that one. And yeah, there’s some bad actors out there in the globe. But none of them can do more harm to and more damage to you than the true axis of evil, the people that are actually running the country. It is what it is. Anyway, here’s an example of this.

Elon Musk isn’t very popular in Washington, DC right now. He has a free spirit. He speaks his mind. He is wealthy. He is an entrepreneur. And quite frankly, he doesn’t give a damn about pandering to the people in charge. They don’t like that. You must kowtow. You must bow down to the axis.

of evil, the axis of evil will get back at you. They will. The deep state, whatever you want to call it, they will get back at you. I never forget this. I know I’ve brought this up on many occasions. It was a Freudian slip. It was a Freudian slip by Chuck Schumer when he was being interviewed by Rachel Maddow. Again, it’s one of those statements it’s made to make sure jaw drops.

Actually, it didn’t make my job, it made my skin crawl. You know, it was frightening. It was, you know, Donald Trump was going after the CIA and the FBI for their failures. This was in the early part of his term. And Chuck Schumer on air said, Kepler, be careful, these guys got six ways past Sunday for going after you and finding ways. And I’m like.

You understand how evil, how creepy that sounds? That if you’re gonna criticize somebody, they’re gonna go after you? What the hell, freaking, you know, East Germany for crying out, why? The lives of others, which is a great movie, by the way. Anyway, the FCC, now going after Musk. Three years ago, the FCC, do you remember Joe Biden was talking about getting broadband out to all of the rural areas of the country?

They awarded $885 million to Starlink, which is Elon Musk’s broadband internet service, which works and works well, works really well, to provide high speed internet service to some 640,000 rural homes and businesses in 35 states. You had several other broadband providers also win some money as well. But again.

Starlink, you don’t have to lay lines, you don’t have to lay fiber, you put a dish on the house and it works. So, simple math here, cost of $1,382 per subscriber. You know what the cost is to do it with fiber? Over $3 billion. So, this is a big savings for the taxpayer.

But in an unprecedented thing, government never gives a darn about when contracts are done. The Democratic majority on the FCC revokes Starlink’s funding because it hasn’t met its commitment, wait for it, to connect 640,000 rural Americans two years ahead of schedule.

Since when does the government expect anything ahead of schedule? Hasn’t met its commitment to connect 640,000 rural Americans two years ahead of schedule. Supposed to be done, must expect it done by 2025. The law merely requires Starlink to show that it’s reasonably capable of providing high speed internet to at least 40%.

of the 640,000 rule premises by the end of 2025, which it has been doing. And the documentation is there. Again, the Democrats on the FCC, they just ignored that. It’s not making fast enough progress. Meanwhile, the other participants are doing much, much worse. And guess what? Guess what? They didn’t get their funding cut.

And again, the reasoning is saying that Starlink is unproven technology. Gee, that’s funny. The Ukrainian military is using it to fight the Russians. Anyway, again, you take a look at this. There’s no logic or reason to this at all. These are just. Goon tactics, these are bully, goon, despotic tactics. Some are saying, well, you know, the

You need a lot more union workers to lay lines, and maybe the Democrats are pandering to this. But again, who loses again? We do, with people, with taxpayers. Again, I give you government. Watchdog on wallstreet.com.
