Very cool! Broadband access particularly for rural communities is often not available or with much consumer choice.

Trump. December 2nd, 2025. No, it isn't. He CAMPAIGNED on it but voters just got more bait and switch. The facts show folks are getting fleeced.

Sad to say, not the first time I've had my life threatened for serving. It's because of that, not in spite of, that we need leaders MORE THAN EVER with the courage to stand up and in front.26 Nov 2025 18:33 +0000at://did:plc:dxmin3fxtqa5inxqlzfhioax/app.bsky.feed.post/3m6kikh6kzs2ohttps://bsky.app/profile/jaronbrandon.bsky.social/post/3m6ibgxs23s2xGreat speaking with some students at UC Merced, my alma mater.
