I will fucking lose it if Harris replaces Khan - the FTC is fucking killing it right now.

“The Commission vote approving publication of the final rule in the Federal Register was 3-2, with Commissioners Melissa Holyoak and Andrew N. Ferguson voting no.”

Perfect timing for my new year of cheap sirius radio. I honestly never signed up for a promo before because I knew how difficult canceling was.
