I’m a big advocate for taking their money, being loud about what they wanted for it, and then just not doing it.

Bribes don’t come with binding contracts.

Take the money and tell them to fuck off.

Eventually they’ll stop trying to bribe everyone. If you turn it down, they’ve lost nothing

The transfer wouldn’t clear until Google won, if it cleared at all.

But this is what the Republicans voted for… To be pushed around, marginalized, and taken advantage of by big corporations. You’d think they’d be happy lol

They don’t think that is what they voted for

The real chad move is to take the money and then immediately use the money to fight back against Google.
