Top Broadband Official Exits Commerce Department with Sharp Musk Warning

What Happened: Evan Feinman, who led the Commerce Department’s $42.5 billion broadband program, resigned with a scathing warning that Trump is restructuring the initiative to benefit Elon Musk’s Starlink. Feinman criticized the move as a betrayal of rural America, arguing that it prioritizes Musk’s financial gain over delivering high-quality internet.

Why It Matters: The shift in broadband policy will leave rural communities with inferior internet services while funneling government funds to Musk’s company. Feinman’s departure signals internal resistance to Trump’s changes, raising concerns about corruption, favoritism, and reduced technological standards.
