    Democrats are working to consolidate the power of government and their "strong alliance" with big tech, working to censor dissenting opinions, according to Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo.

    "That is anti-American," Hawley told Fox News host Mark Levin in a "Life, Liberty & Levin" interview airing Sunday. "That is anti-free speech. It's anti-First Amendment."

    This is not just big tech acting independently, because the left is glomming on to their American voter influence, Hawley added.

    "Make no mistake, the left is cheering them on," he said. "You hear the Democrats sometimes talk about these companies – they love the power that these companies have.

    "They love it. They love the power over speech that Facebook and Twitter have, and they want them to do more.

    "The left wants Facebook to censor more. They want Twitter to censor more. They want Google to censor more. So there is a strong alliance between the left wing in this country and these mega-corporations."

    The alliance between big tech social media and the democrat party is clear for all to see. Big tech social media has gone woke and all in for the left and censoring conservatives. Now they are acting as agents of government doing government bidding by censoring conservatives, their opinions and beliefs, and even news articles that they don’t like.

    It is so sad that Republicans continue to elect people to congress that have no idea how the constitution works.

    The first amendment doesn’t not force companies to host the voices of individuals. It can not force them to give them a platform.

    It applies to the government ONLY

    Yes, him. The one we intend to keep front and center as a key voice of the opposition. We love him.

    How did I censor them? I simply called out their blatant racism for using the term.

    Except that we have evidence now that government requested and private companies then acted as agents of said government which is illegal per the 1st amendment.

    Republicans don't care about the Constitution, obviously.

    To them, it's just a weapon. A blunt weapon, as they don't understand a word of it.

    Source where the government conspired with private businesses to suppress the voice of individuals?

    Are you talking about Georgia removing tax breaks for companies because they dared speak out about them?

    ANOTHER OPINION Thread in Current Events? :bored:

    Wow. :smh:

    See This (from the link) --> according to Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo.

    ^ The phrase "according to" means that it is an Opinion Thread.

    And, on-topic, Hawley's OPINION is a Partisan Joke

    Do you think that putting an immature comment like that on my thread contributes anything to the quality of discussion on the issue at hand here?

    Senator Hawley is one of the few politicians who are truly working for the American people, it is why he receives so much opposition from the left, you can see their desperation in the levels they stoop to. If there were more Josh Hawley's America would be a much better place today. The GOP is lucky to have him.

    You just said you (plural) loved Josh Hawley. Apparently, sarcasm is lost on you.

    Saying you (plural) love Josh Hawley is about the most immature thing I've heard all year. You give as good as you get.

    Josh Hawley is an anti-American traitor to the United States.

    You are right. He’s a great senator. We are lucky to have him. I look forward to reading his new book that the left tried to cancel.
