Analysis | The Technology 202: Democrats criticize FCC's green light on Sprint and T-Mobile merger

to Pai, calling on the agency to reject the deal. They also sent a similar letter to the Justice Department.

Yet for the Sprint T-Mobile merger to emerge as the emblem of the Democrats’ resistance to Trump’s positions on corporate consolidation, it has to actually take place. Huawei is still barred from buying American-made hardware and software to make new products without other licenses, which can be harder to get.

After the announcement, Google reversed its earlier decision to cut ties with Huawei, CNBC's Sam Meredith. With the new exemption, Google can send software updates to Huawei phones for the next 90 days. For decades, people from China, Russia, Iran and other countries have had to get approval to work on essential technologies. The Commerce Department effectively considers these assignments an export because these workers could take their knowledge about a product home. These approvals used to take weeks, but now it's not unusual for it to take six to eight months, Asa reports.

BYTES: President Trump's re-election campaign has far outspent any Democratic presidential candidate on Facebook advertising -- a repeat of a strategy that helped propel his White House victory three years ago, Trump has spent $4.9 million on Facebook ads, while all 23 Democratic presidential candidates combined have spent $9.6 million. Warren currently leads the 2020 Dems in total Facebook ad spending, followed by Harris and former vice president Joe Biden.

Fishy. Why? Is he/they getting money from those who would compete with the merger. Why is Bernie anti competition? Something doesn't smell right.

The FCC at least has a green light. When can we see the Democrats Lie, I mean Light?
