Big Fed rate cuts, AI killing call centers, $50B govt boondoggle, VC's rough years, Trump/Kamala

And then a year later, the FCC is now claiming that Starlink provides so much high-speed internet that the word monopoly should be tossed out. So, look, this is just pure… It's pure naked retaliation. The Biden-Harris administration doesn't want to admit that Elon has the best solution for rural internet, just like they couldn't admit he made the best electric cars.

Remember when they did that EV summit and they didn't invite him? That was just nakedly political because he's not on their team. Right. So look, I mean, the Biden-Harris administration, look, it's blue no matter who. And Elon has drifted from being sort of independent and not aligned to- He was blue. He was blue. Let's call it what it is.

He's no longer team blue. And so they're punishing him for this. Yeah. And it's costing taxpayers a huge amount of money. I think this is one of the worst decisions by the current administration. And if Trump gets in there, he should reverse it on day one.

Well, we need to investigate. I mean, I think how we got to the point of wasting $50 billion- That requires an investigation, I think.

Well, that's such a good point. I remember back in the day, 60 Minutes used to do these segments on waste, fraud, and abuse at the Pentagon, different parts of the government. $42 billion just spent on something that really taxpayers could have for free or without the government getting involved.

And $42 billion that was lining someone's pocket when the service doesn't even work, that would have been a scandal. And the media would have covered it. But the media doesn't even cover it these days. And again, it's because the media has become so tribal that it's better dead than red and blue no matter who.

And so because the media would have to admit that Elon's already solved this problem, they just can't go there. They won't even cover this. And so we have no accountability. There's no accountability on the government.
