@Google’s @YouTube is censoring an elected member of Congress for opposing vaccine passports.
Trillion-dollar monopolists have this power, as we’ve given them #AntitrustAmnesty for a decade.
We must update & enforce our century-old antitrust laws.
We must breakup Big Tech.

Dear @SenateGOP & @HouseGOP:
1. Yesterday, we learned that @Google’s @YouTube censored @RandPaul — a medical doctor and United States senator — for questioning cloth masks.
2. Today, they censored a House member for opposing vaccine passports.
3. Do you think you aren’t next?

It is crystal clear from the plain text (textualism) and the original public understanding (originalism) of our century-old antitrust laws that trillion-dollar #BigTech monopolists (@Google, @amazon, @Facebook, @Apple) are violating the law.

But starting about 40 years ago, conservative academics and judges essentially rewrote—and neutered—our federal antitrust laws by grafting on the “consumer-welfare standard.”
This judicial activism makes it difficult to bring antitrust lawsuits, especially against #BigTech.

Good.
A free market requires a functioning market.
When monopolists use their market power to harm competition, we no longer have a functioning — and thus, free — market.
Our antitrust laws have been on the books for a century.
We don’t support antitrust amnesty.

Our antitrust laws are targeted law enforcement.
That’s the opposite of “big government,” as they target the tumors on the competitive market instead of punishing everyone with industry-wide regulations.
Monopolists like regulations, which are entry barriers for competitors.

@TwitterSafety censors @amrenewctr, a new think tank led by fmr top Trump official @russvought who is in the trenches w/ @The_IAP & @UnsilencedOrg taking on #BigTech, #CRT, and other key issues.
Why is @Twitter canceling conservatives?
Why are they scared of debates?

And why THE HELL aren’t *all* @HouseGOP and @SenateGOP expressing their outrage?
Why aren’t they defending their supporters battling in the trenches?
Why are they still taking money and shilling for #BigTech?
Why do they still support #AntitrustAmnesty and #Section230Immunity?
