The trump administration has totally mislead the public on Net Neutraliy.

This is totally misleading and false. Net Neutrality means that all traffic, that means data, traveling across the internet should be treated the same at each stage of the process. 

That roughly means that whether a particular packet of data is video from Netflix, HTML from the Guardian, or a P2P file being sent across BitTorrent, it's given the SAME priority along the same routes as each other. NO ONE has priority access, or a "fast lane.” NO ONE would have to pay more to get faster service or data speed. Netflix and Guardian send the data at the same speed. ALL OF THEIR CLIENTS RECEIVE THE SAME DATA AT THE SAME SPEED!

This is one of the key principles around the governance and structure of the internet, and one the FCC and the previous Obama administration both supported.

Without Net Neutrality, Netflix can send data to your neighbor at a faster speed, IF THEY OPT TO PAY EXTRA, and you would receive it free at a slightly slower speed or lower cost. 

Abolishing Net Neutrality will benefit the customers who can afford to pay higher fees and make these huge monolithic companies even greater profits. You see, the companies won’t actually INCREASE speed, but rather slow your’s down. 

As for the news and media outlets, it is more democratic for the media to be available for all and not a commodity to be purchased by a few.  This is all a part of the Republican agenda perpetrated by Donald Trump as: an attack on the Free Press; attack of the peoples’ right to Freedom of Access to the news; making current information more accessible to the wealthy; and, an attempt to make the wealthy cable companies even more profitable.

VERY IMPORTANT! - trump successfully diverted attention all week with his false rhetoric, tweets and insults, defaming veterans, Puerto Ricans, widows of dead soldiers, a Black Congresswoman, and who knows how much more, while his new, "old friend," Mitch McConnell set his Mongol Army on American Citizens. trump is the beginning of the final chapter of the Republican effort to show, Democracy doesn't work. The Country doesn't work. To bring down the Whole Country and Stephen  Bannon STATED VERBALLY and in PRINT he wanted to do. Reduce the Federal Government to a small "caretaker" government, where the citizens MUST rely strictly on their own for survival, no matter the circumstances. NO ENTITLEMENTS of any source (MEDICARE and SOCIAL SECURITY ARE NOT ENTITLEMENTS.  BEWARE OF trump's TRICKS. Now you can see how they work.  > trump did his job. While he diverted the country with his insults and inane comments, lies and B.S., and the media assist...

Hypocrites or not? You decide..

. SHELDON METZ · SUNDAY, MAY 1, 2016 To my ultra-religious friends who quote bible passages and support Trump, how about hearing this when he speaks on TV? Actual quotes fro a rally: DROPPING THE F - BOMB: "The Donald," as he is known, enters the arena, more as a billboard for self inflicted controversy. The supreme aggrandizer, somehow, stays in the game. Willing to use opening phrases such as, "Listen You Mother F*ckers …," which is cool, if your, you know, watching a film by Martin Scorsese, a play by David Mamet or listening to a rap song by Ice Cube, but as a presidential candidate, this is not cool at all. Once he gets a taste for the reaction, the audiences nervous laughter, the cussing continues. On Foreign Policy: "We build a school, we build a road, they blow up the school, we build another school, we build another road they blow them up, we build again, in the meantime we can't get a f*cking school in Brooklyn."

Republican malevolence

The Temp President has created a mess. His vindictive Captain Queeg act and a Captain Ahab, McConnell, at the helm.  Now, a fugleman, Peter Lorre impersonator Lindsey Graham, has decided, amidst the clutter and chaos caused by the new Trump Party, to emulate his not-so-divine leader.  The new Senate Judiciary Chairman has decided during this period of Trump-inspired confusion and disorderliness, to dig up old, settled issues.  He’s decided to use the committee to begin investigations of the Obama administration and Hillary Clinton; maybe Benghazi. Of course, this is nothing but another infant being placed in a position of being able to turn on the gas on the kitchen stove. Pampers diapers must be doing great business in D.C. Trump promised that following the elections, he would request these inquiries. Now, as the self-appointed Lord of Congress, he has his sycophants bidding his orders. Neither he nor McConnell nor Graham nor McCarthy nor 53 Senate Republicans ar...
