Democrats are backed by big tech and now the wealthiest companies in America are seeking to keep their thumb on the scales in this election to defeat President Donald Trump, according to Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, on Newsmax TV.
"Big tech poses I think the single greatest threat to free speech in this country and to fair elections in this country," Cruz told Saturday's "America Right Now."
"Big tech is trying to interfere in this election. Big tech wants to defeat Donald Trump. And they're brazenly willing to censor, to silence American citizens, media companies. It is wrong. It is abuse of monopoly power."
Cruz rejected the censorship of reports about Hunter and, potentially, Joe Biden's connections to business dealings in China.
"I think it is incredibly important that we continue to shine scrutiny and stop their abuse of power, because it keeps getting worse and worse and worse," Cruz told host Tom Basile.
Author of "One Vote Away: How a Single Supreme Court Seat Can Change History," Cruz noted the Democrats' boycott of the Senate Judiciary Committee vote on Judge Amy Coney Barrett for the Supreme Court was helpful also in getting a unanimous vote on the subpoenas of Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg to testify on their election meddling efforts related to censoring the New York Post reporting on the Bidens.
"If the Democrats had been there, they would have delayed those subpoenas, because much of what the Democrats do is try to protect big tech, but since they didn't show up, big tech got thrown overboard, too," Cruz concluded.
