At least 14 people who President-elect Joe Biden has picked to serve either in his administration or to advise his transition have worked for the Big Tech firms that cracked down earlier this week on President Donald Trump and a social media site popular with conservatives.
Apple’s top lobbyist was a chief adviser to the Biden transition team. A former Facebook executive will serve as staff director in the Biden White House, and a former Twitter executive will serve as chief spokesperson for the National Security Council under Biden.
Current and former executives at those firms and two others, Google and Amazon, fill out other positions in the incoming Biden administration, or his transition team.
The five tech giants all took action this week against Trump and Parler, the social media site, in response to riots at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday.

It would only be a bad thing if President Trump had such ties.
Despotism (Encyclopedia Britannica film, circa 1946)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaWSqboZr1w
“A community is low on a ‘Respect’ scale if common courtesy is withheld from large groups of people on account of their political attitudes.”
“...in a downright despotism opposition is dangerous whether the despotism is official or whether it is unofficial...”
“A community rates low on the ‘Information’ scale when the press, radio, and other channels of communication are controlled by only a few people and when citizens have to accept what they are told.”
“See how a community trains its teachers”
“...these students are being taught to accept uncritically whatever they are told. Questions are not encouraged.”
“And if books and newspapers and the radio [and facebook and youtube and...] are officially controlled the people will read and accept exactly what the few in control want them to. Government censorship is one form of control. The newspaper that breaks the government censorship rule can be suspended. It is also possible for newspapers and other lines of communication to be controlled by private interests...”
Democracy (Encyclopedia Britannica film, circa 1946)

“The newspapers of a real democracy meet these tests...”
Newspaper checks.
1. Balance of coverage
2. Disclosure of source
3. Competence of staff
Forbes Magazine’s editor supports such Left Wing Fascism.
There are no crimes for which the left will suffer consequences in the courts in this lifetime.
There, fixed it.
14 big tech on the transition team?
Wow...
We’re going to see a lot more internet cleaning. They are just getting started.
100% guaranteed the occupiers “inauguration” address will be about fighting against us, patriots are evil etc etc.
They know whose palm to grease.
Pedo Joey-Two_Mask will be a a billionaire when he leaves office.
Unfortunately I think you may be correct.
This also would set Biden up quite nicely for the Great Reset and change to digital currency.
He’s setting his Presidency up to lead the 4th Industrial Revolution.
It won’t be long until there will be no way for conservatives to communicate online...
SMH
It is coming sooner than I think we realize.
FR has state boards, we need to start connecting offline with those in our cities and states. We’ve been conditioned for nearly a year now to stay in our own little pods.
We need to break that idea.
I said months ago this election wasn’t about the Presidency. Something much bigger is going on than Joe Biden and it has to do with the technocrats.
That’s because he is a prime example of a demacrook. Making his money the easy way bribery.
You misspelled Reich...
Oy vey!

Indeed it appears I did. So sorry comrade.
Forgive me.
Is there a list of corporations that are actively undermining President Trump or conservatives?
Conversely, is there a list of corporations that are supporting the Republic, free speech, or conservatives?
.
I will be asking every large corporation I do business with this question: "Does you company engage in partisan political activities?" Again, forgive me for posting "off topic" - I did a search and found nothing germane.
