The scene was Capitol Hill as the House Energy and Commerce Committee held a hearing on Big Tech.
As Republican Rep. Dan Crenshaw of Texas spoke about the core challenge being imposed by technology that could not have been imagined in the days of the Founding Fathers, the spirit of the freedom-loving Americans who drafted the First Amendment gusted through the hearing room.
After hearing from witnesses, Crenshaw spoke his mind about the battle between freedom and censorship that is taking place.
Crenshaw said the downside of democracy beats the upside of censorship.
Crenshaw said there is an unholy partnership between Big Tech and Democrats.
"I think the Democrat Party want to censor based on vague interpretations of harmful speech and misinformation, which invariably means things they just disagree with. They can't legally infringe on the First Amendment, so bully Big Tech into doing it for you," he said.
The Western Journal is pleased to bring back comments to our articles! Due to threatened de-monetization by Big Tech, we had temporarily removed comments, but we have now implemented a solution to bring back the conversation that Big Tech doesn't want you to have.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
