NEW: Very pleased that, with key leadership from @marcorubio and @SenMarkey, this bill aimed at closing a security loophole that Huawei and others exploit has passed the Senate. It will now head to the President’s desk for signing into law. 👏 https://t.co/BHH82xX5oM — PolitiTweet.org

Seriously, though, if someone comes out with "The Conservative Case Against Kicking Over Robot Dogs" hot take, I'm not having it. There is nothing more conservative than trying to conserve our very existence. — PolitiTweet.org

Another challenge are warehouse hours of operation. While trucks could move more containers from the Port at night, many of the area warehouses apparently aren’t open to receive containers at that time. 🤷‍♂️ — PolitiTweet.org

Brendan Carr @BrendanCarrFCC

For instance, the Long Beach Airport (just about 5 miles from the Port) was identified as a nearby location to move and stack containers. But local concerns about additional truck traffic etc, even though it’s an industrial area already, apparently put the kibosh on that plan. — PolitiTweet.org

Brendan Carr @BrendanCarrFCC

One core issue is the need to expand the pipeline / capacity for moving containers from the ports (where storage space is, relatively speaking, limited) inland faster. And that’s where federal policies and NIMBYism are constraining the outflow. — PolitiTweet.org

Brendan Carr @BrendanCarrFCC

Federal policies + NIMBY concerns are impacting rail, trucking, & warehousing segments of the supply chain and are contributing to the problem. Visually, those problems are manifesting at ports where ships are anchored, but there remains capacity to offload more containers. — PolitiTweet.org

Brendan Carr @BrendanCarrFCC

The supply chain problems we’re facing are not explained by pointing to a post-Covid increase in containers & ships alone. Here at Long Beach, for instance, they expect to process ~9+ million container units this year. Last year, Long Beach did 8.1M. — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve only listed some of the robotics movies I’ve seen here. And those films are deeply researched. Think of them as Cliffnotes for robotics degrees. You’re essentially digesting encyclopedias worth of robotics knowledge by watching them and going from this 😎 to 🤓 — PolitiTweet.org

In Walking Dead, the zombies don’t move very fast either. They walk - it’s right there in the title. But notice how they’re always right on your heels nonetheless? The speed limit is cold comfort. — PolitiTweet.org

Listen, if Terminator doesn’t qualify me to propose this rule, then watching I, Robot certainly does. I’m also starting suspect that your account may be a burner account for a robot dog that has gone sentient. In which case, that’s cause enough to accelerate the rulemaking. — PolitiTweet.org

Having watched Terminator, I can assure you I have the requisite qualifications to propose this rule. And I will not cotton to those credentials being questioned. — PolitiTweet.org

Brendan Carr @BrendanCarrFCC

I’ve seen "Terminator,” I’ve seen “I, Robot.” I know how this ends. That’s why I’m hereby proposing a new rule: If your robot dog is too large to kick over in case of an emergency, it’s banned. https://t.co/mV6OtkE1lS — PolitiTweet.org

Supply chain constraints are already slowing down Internet builds. I met with broadband builders recently in Florida, Arkansas, & Louisiana that cited shortages of everything from network electronics to pickup trucks for crews. Good to get perspectives of Port officials today. https://t.co/yNVrxC1nf1 — PolitiTweet.org

Brendan Carr @BrendanCarrFCC

I visited the Port of Long Beach today and met with officials here to get a firsthand sense of the supply chain challenges that are already impacting telecom and many other industries. 70 ships are anchored offshore right now waiting to unload. #CarrTrip https://t.co/Yg3kfkTSgB — PolitiTweet.org

Stunning. TikTok’s head of U.S. policy repeatedly refuses to say “no” when asked if their privacy policy allows them to share sensitive user data with a CCP-affiliated, Beijing entity. This evasion raises serious questions. Kudos to @SenTedCruz for vigorously pursuing this. — PolitiTweet.org

For years, Google lobbied for rules to prohibit prioritization through so-called ‘net neutrality’ requirements. Meanwhile, Google was apparently pressuring Roku to prioritize and preference Google in its search results. 🤔 — PolitiTweet.org

Today, the FCC voted to revoke China Telecom America’s Section 214 authority to operate in the U.S. based on national security risks. Another important step towards addressing the threats posed by Communist China and those that would do its bidding. https://t.co/qDIoIitL0t — PolitiTweet.org
