Ted Cruz Launches Major Investigation – Using Musk’s Twitter Files, The Senator Will Look into Big Tech

What’s Happening:

We all remember Elon Musk’s brutal takedown of Twitter’s former executives. The billionaire CEO revealed that the social network had been colluding with Democrats in the federal government to violate your First Amendment rights. The fallout of his “Twitter Files” has been tremendous. And we are only getting started.

Republicans are outraged at how liberals trampled Americans’ rights, all with support from the government. And constitutional scholar, Sen. Ted Cruz, is not going to take this lying down. In the aftermath of the Twitter Files, he is putting all of Big Tech on notice.

From Breitbart:

On Monday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Hannity,” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) stated that he will, in his role as Ranking Member of the Senate Commerce Committee, investigate censorship at Google, Facebook, and TikTok using the Twitter files as a guide…

“…I launched a full investigation into big tech censorship… to go after all of big tech that is trying to silence conservatives.”

Uh, oh. It looks like the good old days of liberals pushing around conservatives are over. At least on social media. In the aftermath of Elon’s Twitter Files, Sen. Ted Cruz announced an investigation into other major social media and Big Tech platforms.

He has vowed to use the Twitter Files as a guide to look into how other tech companies violated the First Amendment rights of conservatives.

Look, if Twitter–a smaller social network–was silencing you, imagine what companies like Google and Facebook were doing. Documents released by Musk show that top Twitter executives were coordinating with the FBI and other agencies to take down content that hurt Joe Biden’s candidacy.

Do any of us believe the government wasn’t also doing the exact same thing with every other Big Tech company? Come on, man. They probably did much more with large platforms like YouTube and TikTok.

As ranking member of the Senate Commerce Committee, Ted Cruz can subpoena documents and call executives to D.C. for questioning. Don’t be fooled, these executives will work very hard to hide what they were doing. But the cat’s out of the bag. Nobody’s going to believe Google and Facebook weren’t doing what Twitter was doing.

And heads are going to roll.

Key Takeaways:

  • Cruz announced an investigation against Big Tech over censorship.
  • He will use the Twitter Files as a guide to exposing other companies’ attempts at violating Americans’ First Amendment rights.
  • Elon Musk revealed to the world that Twitter worked with Democrats in the government to silence Americans–a violation of the First Amendment.
