Cruz’in For A Constitutional Bruis’in
Cruz’in For A Constitutional Bruis’in
Yesterday, (October 28th), the smug, self-satisfied, rolling-in-capitalist-money, What-First-Amendment?, big-shot millionaire social media titans finally began to get their long over-due verbal come-upence from our America-First Senators on that body’s Commerce Committee.
Twitter’s CEO and censorship overseer, Jack Dorsey, was the first among the three social media honchos to tumble out of the barrel and he got everything and more that he deserved, given his regime’s most current, pre-election, and outlandish censoring of the New York Post’s alarming story regarding the international influence peddling carried on, it appears, for several years, by the Biden Family, Inc. Twitter knowingly shut down access to the NY Post story, calling it “hacked” and/or “unverified,” when there was clearly corroborated knowledge that it was neither hacked nor unverified. What can be verified, however, is that Twitter chose to smother the story in an obvious effort to protect Candidate Biden from the damaging back-lash. Ironically, the story(s) are now out, and it is Twitter that has sustained the punishing back-lash. Interesting that Twitter policy would prohibit inclusion of the NYP blockbuster story on its site, claiming unverified or hacked status, while it had no problem providing space for three-years-plus of countless negative stories damaging to President Trump, even leading to a scam impeachment, when none of those supposed Russian corruption stories were ever verified as true! None of them. Which makes it all the more obvious that Twitter has been, and apparently continues to be, at bat continually for the Democrats and their dominating Left Wing.
Wrote the New York Post Editorial Board in response to Twitter CEO Dorsey’s Senate testimony: “He sounded like every mob enforcer and shakedown artist in history: ‘Nice paper you got there, New York Post. Shame, should something happen to it.’ He knows full well media outlets depend on social media, and Google search algorithms, to help readers access our reporting.” As the Post’s editorial response headline read: “Twitter is running a blackmail operation – cooperate or no traffic for you.”
The Commerce Committee’s verbal knock-out punch against this obvious electorate news-access tampering, and equally obvious pro-Democrat/Protect Biden censorship maneuver, was delivered by the outstanding Republican Senator from Texas, Ted Cruz, who eloquently (and appropriately) blistered Mr. Dorsey as follows: “Twitter made the decision, number one, to prevent users, any user, from sharing those stories, and, number two, you went even further and blocked the New York Post from sharing on Twitter its own reporting. Today, right now, the New York Post is still blocked from tweeting, two weeks later.” Now then, here it comes, and it’s a beautiful and powerful admonishment rarely seen: “Mr. Dorsey, who the hell elected you, and put you in charge of what the media are allowed to report, and what the American people are allowed to hear, and why do you persist in behaving as a Democrat Super PAC silencing views to the contrary of your political beliefs?”
The Senator verbally laid him out to dry, which this elitist, social media big-shot richly deserved, in this particular and glaring instance of information suppression most certainly, and solely, for political reasons. Understand that we, as a nation and society, are now well beyond the consideration of simple, freedom-destroying economic and societal socialism. Sadly, we’re now fast approaching the punitive, unyielding, one-way, iron gates of Communism. And the latter is the exact end-game of today’s well-funded, organized, destructive, and despicable radical leftists/anarchists intent on annihilating our America.
Huge thanks to Senator Cruz for his bold “who the hell elected you” defense, as well as to others who also speak strongly in support of our First and Second Amendment rights, along with the vital overall preservation of our great nation. Our very freedom is on the line next Tuesday.

ADDENDUM: Twitter CEO testimony reaction from military veteran Congressman Dan Crenshaw (R-TX), ironically tweeted: “Biggest take away from the big tech hearings: (!) Jack Dorsey is a partisan and a hypocrite. (2) There are no liberals left in the Democrat Party. Not s single Democrat Senator defended free speech or freedom of the press today. This should terrify Americans.”
