Biden Bucks Bail Dish Network Out
In a stunning turn of events, Dish Network, embroiled in a hefty civil fraud lawsuit, found its legal woes melting away after a hefty contribution to Joe Biden’s campaign coffers.
Let’s rewind: Dish Network’s CEO, Charlie Ergen, had been entangled in a legal battle against a whopping $3.3 billion federal fraud claim brought forth by Vermont Telephone for almost a decade. The dispute stems from Dish’s strategic maneuver back in 2015 when, with the backing of BlackRock, it capitalized on a federal program meant for “very small businesses” to snag wireless licenses on the cheap.
But here’s where things get interesting: Enter Ergen and his spouse, Candy, generously greasing the wheels of political favor with a hefty $100,000 donation to Biden’s super PAC, along with maxed-out $6,600 contributions to his presidential campaign committee, totaling a whopping $113,000 in handouts.
And lo and behold, the political patronage paid off handsomely. Just a month later, Dish Network was handed a cushy $50 million grant from the Biden administration to bolster its 5G expansion endeavors. Coincidence? You be the judge.
Not content with mere financial favors, the Biden Justice Department quickly sprang into action, reportedly leaning on Vermont Telephone to settle matters in a manner favorable to Dish. The company’s lead attorney, Bennett Ross, didn’t mince words, accusing the DOJ of attempting to strong-arm an “unethical settlement.”
Zooming out, Ross underscored the broader pattern, highlighting a troubling trend of a “two-tiered justice system” where the politically connected get preferential treatment, while the rest are left to fend for themselves.
So, what’s the moral of the story? A mere $100k seemed to do the trick in swatting away a colossal $3 billion lawsuit. Whether it’s cozying up to China, Ukraine, or corporate giants like Dish Network, the Bidens have consistently proven themselves to be quite the thrifty companions.
