Ted Cruz Reams Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey: ‘Who The Hell Elected You?’

“ Nothing will come from this.”

Don’t be too sure about that. Trump will go into retribution mode soon.

The Tech Oligarchs not longer have much "skin in the game" for a sovereign USA. They have power to protect themselves internationally, and the Chinese offer more money and more credible threats.

Making "partners" with the Chinese and conceding to their demands is easier than worrying about U.S.Constitutional protections, or a political party that is concerned about limiting government power.

29 Oct: Daily Mail: ‘Who the hell elected YOU?’ Ted Cruz tears into Twitter’s Jack Dorsey for STILL censoring tweets about Hunter Biden’s emails as Republicans slam him, Facebook and Google for ‘bias’ - and he admits ‘conservatives have lost trust in us’
The hearing comes as social media sites blocked a New York Post article revealing details of Hunter Biden’s hard drive, prompting fury from Republicans and Donald Trump

The hearing was called by Republican senators in the wake of Twitter stopping tweets linking to the story about Hunter Biden, and Facebook limiting its users’ ability to post it...
At the start of the hearing Dorsey acknowledged that conservatives do not think Twitter is ‘acting in good faith’ and said he wanted to become more transparent to address their feelings...

The hearing, however, faltered briefly at the beginning when Zuckerberg could not log on. It was briefly adjourned after the Republican chairman, Roger Wicker, said: ‘Members should be advised at this point that we are unable to make contact with Mark Zuckerberg. We are told by Facebook staff that he is alone and attempting to make contact with this hearing.’ He connected a minute later...

The New York Post story revealed some of what was found on Hunter Biden’s intercepted hard drive, which he left at a computer repair shop.
Facebook also limited the story from being shared, citing its policy for slowing the spread of potential ‘misinformation.’ It said that it was going to be factchecked, although no such factcheck has become public after more than two weeks. The newspaper remains locked out of its Twitter account.

The Post reported earlier this month that emails showed Hunter Biden set up meetings between his father, who was vice president at the time, with executives of a Ukrainian energy company.
It also contained a slew of other information that could be seen as damaging to Biden’s election chances...

When Zuckerberg was asked about Facebook also limiting the reach of the New York Post story on Hunter and Joe Biden, he revealed that a warning from the FBI contributed to the decision.

The Facebook chief executive told lawmakers that the FBI warned ahead of time to be on the lookout for hack-and-leak operations before the November 3 presidential election – and Zuckerberg climbed Russia, Iran and China to attempt to use the social media platform to run disinformation campaigns.
‘One of the threats that the FBI has alerted our companies ... to was the possibility of a hack and leak operation in the days or weeks leading up to this election,’ Zuckerberg said.
‘So you had both public testimony from from the FBI, (inaudible) in private meetings alerts that were given to at least our company, I assume the others as well, that suggested that we be on high alert and sensitivity that if a trove of documents appeared that that we should view that with suspicion that it might be part of a foreign manipulation attempt,’ he continued.
Facebook argued it wanted to limit the spread of disinformation, as some of the claims in the article were unsubstantiated – even though the Post was citing directly from the hard drive...

Trump’s tweets have been labeled several times by Twitter as ‘misleading’, but Republican Senator Cory Gardner pushed Dorsey on why they don’t also censor Iranian leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s tweets, which include Holocaust denial and calls for the ‘elimination’ of Israel.
‘So you would agree that someone who says the Holocaust may not have happened is spreading disinformation? Yes or no,’ the Colorado Republican pushed.
‘Uh – yes,’ Dorsey said...

Dorsey argued that tweets are only flagged if they contain ‘misinformation’ or ‘misleading’ information regarding three different categories: ‘manipulated media; public health, specifically COVID; and civic integrity, election interference and voter suppression.’
‘We do not have policy or enforcement for any other types of misleading information that you’re mentioning,’ Dorsey said...

Wicker pressed Dorsey on why his company slapped warning labels on President Trump’s tweets about voter fraud but allowed tweets from Iran and the Chinese regime to stay up.
‘You routinely restrict the president of the United State. How does a claim by Chinese communists that the U.S. military is to blame for COVID stay up for two months without a fact check and the president’s tweet about the security of mail-in ballots get labeled instantly?’ he asked.
‘The goal of our labeling is to provide more context, to connect the dots so people can have more information so they can make decisions for themselves,’ he said...

‘YOU’VE LOST OUR FAITH,’ DORSEY SAYS TO CONSERVATIVES
Dorsey acknowledged during the hearing before the Senate Subcommittee on Communications, Technology, and the Internet that conservatives ‘don’t trust we are acting in good faith’... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8888985/GOP-senators-slam-Facebook-Twitter-censorship-suppression-conservative-voices.html

"If the Republicans don’t win back the House, Senate, and President, nothing will come of it."

Meow.

“It is just a dog and pony show. Nothing will come from this.”

The Republican form of government is designed to create a process that takes a long time. If you’re looking for instant gratification, go eat a cupcake and bag of potato chips.

I am counting on us winning back all three...

I agree, scolding does nothing. When they violate the law, criminal punishment is needed. Whether it be jail, financial or something else, it needs to be tangible. A scolding only teaches them that no matter what they do, there are no real consequences. Nothing will change for the better. They will only push harder.
