Biden Hires Tech Execs [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 4 October 2020 | John Semmens

The Biden campaign announced that it is hiring Facebook executive Jessica Hertz to join his transition team as general counsel in charge of ethical issues. This is the Campaign’s second “big tech” addition to the transition team. Earlier, Twitter’s Director of Public Policy, Carlos Monje, was hired to co-chair the transition team’s infrastructure policy committee.

A spokesperson for the Campaign called the hires “a natural consequence of both Twitter’s and Facebook’s anti-Trump policies. Rather than hew to an out-dated notion of impartiality, both of these highly influential information gatekeepers have actively identified content that lies outside the accepted progressive narrative of what is permissible. These companies’ contributions to the election of the Harris-Biden ticket deserves a reward. Moreover, taking control over what can and can’t be said will be an ongoing part of the transformation of the American political system begun by former President Obama. We want voters to know that we are all-in on this.”

Silicon Valley already works for the Democrats, especially Harris.

Are they the type of execs who can barely turn on a laptop and use outlook?
