  Rosenworcel, a Democrat, is following tradition, as the FCC chair typically resigns when the opposing party wins the White House. The move will leave the FCC with two Democrats and two Republicans, paving the way for the GOP to add one member and gain a 3–2 majority.

  Orrrrrr, and hear me out. Or, don’t just automatically give them a 3-2 advantage!
  Ok fine. What could go wrong?

  Carr would eliminate (net neutrality) rules even if they survive the challenge. He’s also made it clear he will reverse other consumer protection initiatives started by Rosenworcel, such as an inquiry that could have resulted in regulation of data caps.

  Goddammit

    They have a lot of the same donors, they have a lot of the same masters
