While Trump dominates the news, GOP appointees are busy doing favors for big corporations. Here's the latest instance:

"Someone in the press should ask Trump if he’s on the side of American consumers or the corporate bigwigs who stayed at his fancy hotel."https://t.co/5XAbA4Aofh

I wrote an article for @WIRED on T-Mobile & Sprint's unenforceable promises on #5G & rural broadband & why they don't outweigh the merger's harms: https://t.co/ovZI4FR7e4#StopTmobileSprint

@gigibsohn nails it: False victories for the FCC and a corporation do not solve rural #broadband issues or close the #digital divide. This merger is bad for Americans and these so-called commitments are meaningless. https://t.co/QqVjVaSLHo

Once again, @gigibsohn nails it.

As the @FCC prepares to sell us out and kill mobile competition, she says "These promises are speculative, unsubstantiated, and entirely unenforceable." https://t.co/zcK3UzyrGp

What else is new?@AjitPai, the chairman of the @FCC, threw his support behind a merger of T-Mobile and Sprint, which could lead to higher prices for cell-phone users across the country. https://t.co/Dk2aQ5Jl89

.@TMobile promised @FCC it would avoid raising rates for 3 years, but it won't protect consumers long term. In Canada and Ireland for example, mobile data rates went up significantly when the # of major wireless competitors went down: https://t.co/vjjVuiquv0 #StopTmobileSprint

Thanks 2 @iPolicy I've updated my @Wired piece 2 reflect that broadband Internet access in US is even WORSE than I said at first. Which makes T-Mobile & Sprint's wildly optimistic promises 2 cover America w. #5G quickly more unrealistic https://t.co/ovZI4FR7e4 #StopTmobileSprint
