T-Mobile and the FCC sound like organizations that shouldn't be politically biased. 'Democrat' Mignon Clyburn? Why does that matter?

Is there not a law in place YET to stop the revolving door between government and special interests?

Let me get this straight. They have a problem with Sprint and T-Mobile merging, but they let AT&T and Time-Warner merge? That's fucked up.

Money, get away Get a good job with good pay and you're okay Money, it's a gas Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash New car, caviar, four star daydream Think I'll buy me a football team

So all those rooms at the Trump hotel weren't enough to get the deal done? Sucks being grifted eh JohnLegere ?
