TechCrunch has written about the FCCs pre-emptive reaction to the new inspector general report regarding an alleged attack on the FCC comment system last year which the FCC had long alluded to concerning the net neutrality debate. The FCC now admits that the attacks never actually took place, after a report from its inspector general found a lack of evidence supporting the idea. Chairman Ajit Pai immediately turned around and blamed both the previous CIO and ... wait for it ... Obama.
Pai's statement was issued before the OIG publicized its report, as one does when a report is imminent that essentially says your agency has been clueless at best or deliberately untruthful at worst, and for more than a year. To be clear, the report is still unpublished, though its broader conclusions are clear from Pai's statement. In it he slathers Bray with the partisan brush and asserts that the report exonerates his office
TechCrunch is still waiting to hear back from the FCC and its Office of the Inspector General for more information, including the report itself.

Even the lizard people's mind control chips aren't sharp enough to pull off Barack's patter speed in Q&A sessions. Whatever powers that be have such mind control tech also can implant the devices without visible scarring. I believe Barry is a free agent who rode the killer wave all the way to the beach - part of how you do that is by avoiding the sharks, including the telecomms lobby.
Of course, we've got carrot man off his board and trying to punch the occasional great white in the nose, and he doesn't seem to be going down yet - protected by a partisan legislature really does make a difference.

Then it must be the Rand Corporation, in conjunction with the Saucer People, under the supervision of the Reverse Vampires.
