Kamala Harris, the DEI selected vice president had three years and $42 billion dollars to work with and as unbelievable as it may seem, she was a better border czar than she was at connecting people to the internet. But, not by very much. As the border czar, there were some criminals and terrorists she was unable to get into the United States but with the internet, she failed to get even one person connected. That is failure with a capital F.
Federal Communications Commissioner Brendan Carr slams Kamala Harris’s $42 billion broadband initiative. With just six months and only $50 million I’ll bet I could have topped her total. Carr before the House Oversight and Accountability Committee on Thursday. Carr, the senior Republican on the Federal Communications Commission hit Harris with everything he had. He was beyond belief, realizing that Harris was a total failure. Some say Harris has been a total failure her entire life, but I disagree. She hasn’t even lived her whole life yet.
Carr said:
“It’s been 1,039 days since Vice President Harris agreed to spearhead this massive program, yet not a single person has been connected to the internet. Not one home. Not one business. Not even a shovel has hit the ground.”
“It gets worse—no infrastructure builds will even start until sometime next year at the earliest, and in many cases, not until 2026. This makes Vice President Harris’s $42 billion initiative the slowest-moving federal broadband deployment program in recent history.”
“The $42 billion program led by Vice President Harris is being used to push a climate change agenda, DEI requirements, price controls, preferences for government-run networks, and rules that will lead to wasteful overbuilding. All of this will leave rural communities behind.”

“But the government revoked that award last year after President Biden gave agencies the green light to go after Musk. The administration is now spending dollars on the penny to connect locations through its own initiatives. Senator Cruz released a report identifying entire projects where the administration is now spending over $100,000 per location for Internet.”
Letting Musk connect to 640,000 homes would have only cost $830,000,000. That would have left over $41 billion dollars to connect more.
Federal Communications Commissioner Brendan Carr slams Kamala Harris’s $42 billion broadband initiative, calling it a colossal failure in a scathing testimony before the House Oversight and Accountability Committee on Thursday.
Carr, the senior Republican on the Federal Communications Commission, didn’t hold back, accusing the regime of prioritizing political agendas over practical solutions for millions of Americans still lacking access to high-speed internet.
The program, known as BEAD (Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment), was designed to extend internet access to millions of Americans in rural and underserved communities.
But according to Carr, the initiative has been bogged down by bureaucratic mismanagement and a focus on advancing a “wish list of progressive policy goals” rather than delivering on its core mission.
The hearing served as a stark indictment of Vice President Harris’s leadership on the issue, with Carr calling for a complete overhaul of the broadband initiative.
“Absent major reforms, Vice President Harris’s $42 billion program is wired to fail. It’s time to correct course, get rid of all the extraneous political goals, and focus on quickly connecting Americans,” Carr concluded.
