Subject: [telecom] Metro by T-Mobile offers free phones in Walmart stores
By Cosmin Vasile
When it rains it pours! There are so many Black Friday deals still up
for grabs that it’s hard to decide where to invest. But what if you
could get a phone and not have to pay anything upfront? Metro by
T-Mobile has an interesting promotion running in partnership with
Walmart stores where customers can get a free phone, if they’re
willing to purchase and activate an unlimited plan.

************************** Moderator's Note **************************
This is a subject near to me: I'm in the process of selecting a phone
to take the place of the 4G LTE phone my wife has to give up because
Verizon Mobile got greedy.
Can anyone recommend a lightweight, voice-activated, and VERY tough
cellphone that she could use?

Subject: [telecom] Congressional panel to find out who was communicating with
Arizona Republican chair on Jan. 6
By Howard Fischer
PHOENIX -- Members of a congressional panel are going to find out who
was communicating with Arizona Republican chair Kelli Ward around the
time of the 2020 election and the insurrection attempt that followed.
The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday rejected the bid by Ward, who chairs
the Arizona Republican Party, to shield the record of her calls and
texts from the committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot. The justices
gave no reason for their decision.
Monday's order leaves Ward with no recourse. But Alexander Kolodin,
her attorney, said there is something to be said about the fact that
Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented from the
order. They said they would have granted her request to delay the
order of U.S. District Court Judge Diane Humetewa directing T-Mobile,
the company that has the records, to surrender them to Congress and
let the full court debate the issue.
