In 2021, the Biden Administration got $42.45 billion from Congress to deploy high-speed Internet to millions of Americans.

Years later, it has not connected even 1 person with those funds. In fact, it now says that no construction projects will even start until 2025 at earliest.

He did that during the Obama days as well. Telcom company I worked for got $5 million worth of builds through one of the parties that won the contracts. They never paid out to any company that got work and instead all filed for bankruptcy.

The company I was at ended up going bankrupt and folding due to that along with many others.

Really no surprise to me it happened again
