So last week now-President Trump suggested he would nominate Olivia Trusty to serve as the fifth FCC commissioner and return the FCC to full strength.

We did a profile review of her last week and came to the conclusion she was really well qualified for the role.

Well apparently Democratic FCC Commissioner Anna M. Gomez is of the same mindset. Her office released a short statement on Thursday reading as follows:

“Congratulations to Olivia Trusty on the President-Elect’s announcement of his intent to nominate her as Commissioner of the Federal Communications Commission. She is widely respected, a consummate professional, and has a strong background on communications policy. I welcome the opportunity to work with her.”

Well look at that– a democrat welcoming a republican with open arms. Maybe there is hope for this country afterall.

Olivia Trusty’s nomination is looking pretty good from everything I have seen or heard. Will keep an eye on it.
