    Federal Communications Commission Chair Brendan Carr slammed >>>>>>>>> former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg for claiming
    Trump
    administration "incompetence" is putting Americans "at risk," >>>>>>>>> pointing to a multi-billion dollar project under the Biden
    administration that he said yielded no results.

    "You worked for an Administration that got $42 billion to
    connect
    millions of Americans to the Internet," Carr said in an X post
    on
    Saturday responding to Buttigieg. "1,163 days later, that Admin >>>>>>>>> exited without connecting even 1 person & without turning even 1 >>>>>>>>> shovel worth of dirt."

    "If we need expertise in incompetence, will reach out," he
    added,
    accompanied by the peace sign emoji.

    Carr was responding to a message Buttigieg posted on Friday that >>>>>>>>> took issue with the Department of Government Efficiency, which
    has
    become a common target of Democrats as Elon Musk and the DOGE
    team
    work through federal government agencies in its quest of
    extinguishing government fraud and overspending.

    "Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no
    matter
    how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the >>>>>>>>> same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security
    information online today - wants access to your bank account & >>>>>>>>> Social Security numbers," Buttigieg posted to X on Friday,
    referring to accusations DOGE posted classified information to
    its
    website, which the White House has refuted.

    The Biden administration in 2021 approved a $42.5 billion
    provision in the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act that was >>>>>>>>> directed to a program intended to deliver internet to
    underserved
    and rural areas of the nation. Four years later, however, the >>>>>>>>> program has not connected users to the internet, the Washington >>>>>>>>> Policy Center found in a report last year.

    States were required to submit plans to the federal government
    by
    2023 related to the investment and deployment of the internet >>>>>>>>> services. Former President Joe Biden, upon the states submitting >>>>>>>>> their plans, celebrated the internet initiative as similar to >>>>>>>>> former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's 1936 Rural
    Electrification Act, which brought electricity to homes
    nationwide.

    "What we?re doing is, as I said, not unlike what Franklin Delano >>>>>>>>> Roosevelt did when he brought electricity to nearly every
    American
    home and farm in our nation. Today, Kamala and I are making an >>>>>>>>> equally historic investment to connect everyone in America ? >>>>>>>>> everyone in America to high-speed Internet by ? and affordable >>>>>>>>> high-speed Internet ? by 2030," Biden said at the White House in >>>>>>>>> June of 2023.

    Carr has frequently taken issue with the $42.5 billion program, >>>>>>>>> including citing it in X posts before President Donald Trump's >>>>>>>>> election win in November, and the president subsequently
    appointing the Republican FCC commissioner as chair of the
    government agency.

    "In 2021, the Biden Administration got $42.45 billion from
    Congress to deploy high-speed Internet to millions of
    Americans,"
    wrote on X back in June "Years later, it has not connected even
    1
    person with those funds. In fact, it now says that no
    construction
    projects will even start until 2025 at earliest."

    Carr explained to Fox Business back in June that while the funds >>>>>>>>> were allocated to states to deliver internet services through
    the
    program, the Biden administration was at fault for the lack of >>>>>>>>> progress.

    "There's no question that the 2021 law put some process in
    place,
    but the Biden administration decided to layer on top of that a >>>>>>>>> Byzantine additional set of hoops that states have to go through >>>>>>>>> before the administration will approve them to actually get
    these
    funds and start completing the builds," Carr told FOX Business
    in
    an interview in June.

    He added that while some high-speed internet projects had
    connected people during the Biden administration, none were
    funded
    through the $42.5 billion allocation from the Broadband Equity, >>>>>>>>> Access, and Deployment program.

    And the democrats have this managerial disaster Pet Buttigieg on
    the
    short list for a future POTUS run?
    There were plenty of incompetents in the last administration but >>>>>>>> Pete certainly raises the bar.
    A perfect example of a person who is book smart and street stupid. >>>>>>>
    How many times can you say "President Buttigieg" without laughing? >>>>>>> Go ahead, try it. I got to three.

    Then try saying "President Peter Buttigieg."

    LOL !
    Pete has probably been the butt of all jokes since birth.


    It will never be said that Pete used
    a phony "bone spurs" to avoid the military.

    Of course not.
    Pete being a gay male would be like a kid in a candy store surrounded
    by all the men in the military.



    Pete served.

    Pete specialized in serving seaman collection. He was very talented.
