You want something from Trump, you got to pay him off. Musk gave Trump $300 Million Dollars to put Trump in the WH and Trump already gave Musk a What? A $10 Billion Dollar Contact to launch live human rats into Orbit?
President Donald Trump announced this week that he would end the Digital Equity Act, which provided $2.5 billion in grants to ensure everyone had equal access to the digital economy
Why? So, all you Old Farts will have to rely on Elon Musk’s Rows and Rows of Satellites up in orbit. Now, you’re gonna by Musk Satellite WIFI. Why? Because Musk paid Trump Off. Musk paid Trump’s Quid Pro Quo Price!
“Pope Trump, Go F___K Yourself!”
President Trump, you’re off your GO_______N Rocker. I’ve been living in the countryside since early 1980s. The new Subdivision across the road had high speed fiber optics put in. Once again, they fuked us and totally skipped us.
You’ve raised a very important point about the impact of infrastructure decisions on rural communities, particularly for older residents. Here’s a breakdown of the situation and why your concerns are valid:
- The Digital Equity Act:
- This act aimed to bridge the “digital divide,” which is the gap between those who have access to and the skills to use digital technologies and those who don’t.
- It provided grants to states, territories, and tribal entities to develop and implement digital equity plans, including programs for internet access, digital literacy training, and device affordability.
- The aim was to help groups like the elderly, those in rural locations and low income families.
- Rural Internet Access:
- Rural areas often face significant challenges in getting reliable, high-speed internet (like fiber optic).
- The cost of building and maintaining infrastructure in sparsely populated areas is higher, making it less profitable for internet service providers.
- This results in slower speeds, limited availability, and higher costs for rural residents.
- Impact on Older Adults:
- Many essential services, like healthcare, banking, and government programs, are increasingly moving online.
- Without reliable internet, older adults can be isolated and disadvantaged.
- Digital literacy is also a major issue. Many older citizens did not grow up with computers.
- Your Concerns:
- You’re right to feel that you’re being left behind. Older communities and rural areas often get less attention when it comes to infrastructure development.
- Paying taxes and not receiving equitable services is a valid concern.
- The stopping of the Digital Equity Act will most likely worsen the digital divide in rural areas.
In essence, the digital divide is a real and growing problem, and policies like the Digital Equity Act were designed to address it. The discontinuation of such programs can have a disproportionately negative impact on communities like yours. Sources and related content

President Trump, Go FUCK Yourself! You calling any thing you don’t like as Woke this or Woke That is TOTAL BULLSHIT! No, you want all of us to depend solely on your Buddy Elon Musk’s Line of Satellites up over us. Use his WiFi at crazy COSTS! Trump says something is Woke This or Woke That to payoff all of his Quid Pro Quo Debts. Killing Acts of Congress to payoff his Billionaire Buddies…
Trump is only concerned with putting more money in his pockets. I predict a Quid Pro Quo Deal will be his downfall because it will be so Foul. Just Wait. Now, it’s Public Knowledge Trump can be Bought.
Below is my writing about the above Article, a very scary Article.
The Eerie Silence of Our Ports: Is “Losing Less” Really Winning?
Step onto the docks of what was once a bustling American port. Instead of the rhythmic clang of cranes and the roar of trucks, an unsettling quiet hangs in the air. President Trump recently suggested this very stillness – the emptiness where ships once lined up – is a good thing, a sign that America is “losing less money.”
But let’s really picture this. Imagine Maria, a longshoreman in Seattle, who used to rely on the constant flow of cargo to support her family. Now, the ships are few and far between, and her shifts are shrinking. How does “losing less money” at the macro level translate into putting food on Maria’s table?
Or think about David, a truck driver who depended on hauling goods from the port to warehouses across the state. With fewer imports and exports, his phone isn’t ringing as often. His truck sits idle, a costly piece of metal instead of a source of income. Is his lost income part of this national “saving”?
Walk into your local hardware store or browse the shelves of your favorite online retailer. Notice any gaps? Perhaps that specific tool you needed is backordered, or that popular brand of clothing is taking longer to arrive. These empty spaces often trace their roots back to disruptions in the supply chain, and yes, reduced port activity plays a role. Are these inconveniences and potential price hikes the hallmarks of an economy that’s “losing less”?
The President’s logic feels akin to celebrating a weight loss during an illness. Yes, the number on the scale might be lower, but is it a sign of health? Our ports are vital arteries of the American economy, the conduits through which goods flow, supporting countless jobs and businesses. When they fall silent, it’s not a victory; it’s a warning sign.
Brian Krassenstein on X aptly labeled Trump “Mr. Bankrupted 6 companies” after hearing this statement. The analogy of a broken-down car saving on gas while stranded on the highway resonates deeply. We wouldn’t celebrate that minor saving while facing a major problem.
So, the next time you hear about empty ports being a positive, take a moment to consider the Marias and Davids across the country. Think about the goods that aren’t reaching our shelves and the businesses that depend on that flow. Is this really about “losing less money,” or is it a stark picture of an economy facing headwinds? What do you see when you imagine those silent docks?
