🚨Now that Russia has invaded Ukraine, the U.S. and our allies should immediately move to CONFISCATE the financial assets of every Russian oligarch who is tied to Putin — their bank accounts, their mansions, their yachts. Hit them where it hurts.
Peter Pratt retweeted
When you describe Russian soldiers invading Ukraine right now as "peacekeepers", even when you use quotation marks, you are using language that Putin wants you to use. Call it what it is -- an invasion.

59 years ago today, Jack Kennedy addressed nation at height of Cuban missile crisis. After his remarks networks went back to normal programming. No media analysis; no punditry or politics. Americans had to decide for themselves — did they trust JFK to prevent nuclear war- or not.

Bush 43 with his honest reflections of the divisiveness and anger that consumes us at home is delivering the wisest address of his presidency and post presidency.

We want schools and libraries nationwide to explore applying to the Emergency Connectivity Fund Program, so spread the word. When we work together, we can connect all students, and our communities will come out of the pandemic stronger! #AmericanRescuePlan go.usa.gov/x6BsZ

Tribes should have the opportunity to offer their communities the #broadband access that is critical for participation in the digital age. I am committed to continuing our efforts to make that happen, consistent with our federal trust relationship.
Today the Commission granted an additional 40 spectrum licenses in the 2.5 GHz band to help connect rural Tribal communities. This valuable mid-band spectrum can be used for #5G and other advanced wireless services. Details here: go.usa.gov/xH6KM #FCCGov

In today's On Tech, about the White House's broadband plan.
It won't be easy but it's quietly revolutionary.
It accurately identifies the problems, and declares that we need government and the free market to make America's internet better for all. nytimes.com/2021/04/02/techn…

Bridging the digital divide must be part of any infrastructure plan. It’s critical for working families to survive and compete in this modern economy.
