Yahoo, Google, Twitter, and Facebook, as well as other social media sites, are extremely biased against conservatives, Republicans, and President Trump. A Pew Research Center survey conducted in June finds that about three-quarters of U.S. adults say it is very (37%) or somewhat (36%) likely that social media sites intentionally censor political viewpoints that they find objectionable. Just 25% believe this is not likely the case. Americans are divided over whether social media companies should label posts on their sites as inaccurate or misleading, with most being skeptical that these sites can accurately determine what content should be flagged.
Take Twitter, for example. A tweet included a picture of the viral “Moscow Mitch” meme, which took the internet by storm in mid-2019 when Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) rejected an election security bill. Yet, these social media sites censor President Trump. Another example, after President Trump met with the residents of Kenosha, Wisconsin, there were no favorable articles on Yahoo news for hours, and then only one. Compare that to when VP Joe Biden went there, many media articles touted what a great move that was.
One person who is trying to remove the political bias is Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX). American Thinker had the privilege of interviewing him. “More and more, big tech is trying to abuse their power and censor speech they disagree with. They are actually silencing the voices of conservatives, especially this year as the election approaches. They are getting more and more brazen as they exercise a monopoly power. By doing this they are silently having dissent disappear. In my view, big tech censorship is the greatest threat to freedom of speech and to democracy in America.”

The reviewers who comes across a posting that they disagree with should have one of two options:
1) Think the poster is nuts but let it pass because of free speech.
2) Think the poster is threatening someone and call the cops.
After President Trump picks Amy, I hope he selects Ted next, for SCOTUS.
