FCC Chairman Brendan Carr spoke to a packed house Friday evening in Dayton, and provided an update on efficiency efforts from the Delete, Delete, Delete initiative.
“We have several great staffers embedded at the Commission from DOGE, all really smart ivy league graduates, none of them from Harvard or Columbia University, of course.” The audience laughed. “They have identified through the use of AI, public SDR receivers on the Internet, and social media that there are over 500,000 ‘ghost’ hams. No one hears them on the air, they never post anything on Truth Social, it’s…… it’s like they don’t even exist. We’re going to be sending out emails to them demanding they justify why we should keep their licenses active and not cancel them. Our DOGE experts say this will result in billions of dollars of savings”
Carr went on, “DOGE has also used social media and SDR recordings to identify hams who are not compatible with the FCC and the federal administration. Rest assured, it’s a small number of hams. DOGE has cleverly used AI here, again. If the AI sees something like a rebel flag displayed on a QRZ profile picture, or a ham talks on Facebook about going to church or cleaning their guns, we can safely assume that ham has the necessary prerequisites to be an FCC amateur radio licensee. Any form of wokeness, such as expressing agreement with civil rights, unions, environmental regulations, immigration, support for LGBTQ, DEI, etc. will flag a licensee for further review and potential license cancellation. There’s just no reason to continue to have licensees who lack conservative values.” Carr reassured the audience that the number of these hams is quite small and that they’re finding that a vast majority of hams support the president and the FCC’s mission in enacting and enforcing his Project 2025 agenda.
The talk closed with a standing ovation and many attendees standing in line for over an hour to get a selfie with Commissioner Carr.
