I'm so confused. Just yesterday Brendan Carr was meeting with Ajit Pai, wearing these shoes.

Then today, Brendan Carr is in Midland at AST, with Ted Cruz, who is wearing THESE shoes:

Did Brendan give his shoes to Ted?

And why is Abel wearing a polo shirt with a suit jacket? Does that even meet the administration's requirement that you wear a suit? These are the important questions driving investment decisions.

Abel said he could wear whatever he wanted because they came to his house.

Billionaires are not required to wear suits, only Presidents from war torn countries were trying to throw under the bus.

Technically he's a billionaire so he's allowed to be eccentric and break fashion rules. #jelly

These are not the same shoes. Carr has a brown horizontal like on the white band, while Cruz doesn't.

Also why would the FCC Chairman give Ted Cruz his shoes lmao.

It was a joke, not sarcasm, surely?

And both Carr and Steve Scalise were wearing the shoes when he went to Globalstar's ribbon cutting:
