Dan Crenshaw nailed it:
"Biggest take away from the big tech hearings:
1) Jack Dorsey is a partisan and a hypocrite.
2) There are no liberals left in the Democrat Party. Not a single Democrat Senator defended free speech or freedom of the press today.
This should terrify Americans."

It's nothing we haven't see escalate over the past 4 years: everyone we disagree with is a Nazi/white supremacist/alt-right/racist/bigotSome of the replies to his tweet are what terrify me... the idea that a journalist can be labeled so easily for simply reporting what the left doesn’t want you to know has staggering implications.
If the Republicans truly embrace this potential new direction for the party, they could bring in a significant number of people who are feeling politically homeless.Two thoughts:
1) I sense a "public utility" designation coming in the near future for social media platforms in Trump's second term
2) Republicans can forever shatter the current Democrat party if they follow Trump's lead. He has opened an irreparable rift between their center and their left. If Republicans have enough wherewithall, bravery, and autonomy (i.e. breaking away from the GOPe/Chamber of Commerce/Globalist cabal that currently controls the party) to embrace the working-class, populist, patriotic, freedom-loving heart of the country (a clear and obvious distinction from Democrats, as evidenced above), they will be in the majority for a generation.
Are we surprised? It used to be the case that people were responsible for their actions and reactions. Muting or ignoring people requires a person to acknowledge that they don't like what person X is saying, and make a decision to ignore them. Now that victimhood is a currency, and we're being told that we have to be actively anti-[cause of the day] ignoring someone is not enough for some people.Some time back in the internet's development I decided that I would just turn off the parts I don't want to see or hear. I am amazed every day at the number of people who don't seem capable of doing that and a little saddened. There must be something better in their lives.

Twitter must be going all in for the Democrats to win. Otherwise they are burning their bridge while standing on it: blocking the Hunter story on obviously partisan grounds, continuing to lock the NY Post out of their account, lying to Congress, and now censoring government officials.And the next day they censor the head of border patrol from posting about the new wall built and how it will keep bad people out.
Twitter suspended U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Commissioner Mark Morgan for a post celebrating the success of the U.S. southern border wall keeping violent criminals from reaching American communities.
According to screenshots shared exclusively with The Federalist, Twitter locked Morgan’s account Wednesday afternoon for apparently violating platform rules governing “hateful conduct” after the commissioner attempted to tweet about the wall’s benefits.
Just more censorship. Take the power away from these oligarchs...

It is hard to be seen calling for ideas on how to act in good faith one day, and then engage in bad faith the next.
