Ken Buck, R-Colo., revealed battle plans against <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/rep-buck-urges-congress-break-up-dangerous-tech-monopolies-twitter-hurt-gop-elections\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social media companies<\/a> and their war against free speech on &#8220;Sunday Night in America with Trey Gowdy.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Buck, who was promoting his latest book &#8220;Crushed: Big Tech&#8217;s War on Free Speech,&#8221; explained to Gowdy exactly what he meant by the term &#8220;war&#8221; in the title.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We know that the Biden administration has contacted social media companies asked them to take people off of social media because they disagree with the Biden administration\u2019s narrative on vaccines or masks or some other issue. We know that these companies have actually discriminated, took Clarence Thomas\u2019 video off of YouTube during the Black History Month, we know that they are doing, suppressing positive stories on Republican members of Congress and presidential candidates. That\u2019s a war in my mind,&#8221; Buck told Gowdy.<\/p>\n<p>He continued, &#8220;When you control the flow of information in a democracy, you control elections. That is scary. And I think the American public needs to know and make sure they support efforts to create competition and to make sure we don\u2019t allow a few companies to control the flow of information in this country.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/tiktok-meta-sued-seattle-school-district-allegedly-wreaking-mental-health-crisis-students\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>TIKTOK, META SUED BY SEATTLE SCHOOL DISTRICT FOR ALLEGEDLY WREAKING MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS AMONG STUDENTS<\/strong><\/a><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Buck also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/ken-buck-big-tech-discrimination-against-conservatives\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">attacked Big Tech<\/a> as a whole for its efforts to target young users with social media\u2019s addictive qualities, citing a recent lawsuit put forward by a Seattle public school district.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Big Tech has developed techniques to hook young people on social media. They understand that when young people see positive images, they get a hit of dopamine that brings them back over and over and over again. The consequences that we saw with Instagram, some of the reports that Meta produced were stunning. These young girls had body-shaming issues and depression, and even higher suicide rates. What Meta did, what Instagram did, is they doubled down and went for a younger group of girls. It is disturbing,&#8221; Buck said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/tiktok-trend-leads-gen-z-employees-new-form-quitting-some-say-bite-back\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>TIKTOK TREND LEADS GEN Z EMPLOYEES TO \u2018A NEW FORM OF QUITTING\u2019 SOME SAY COULD BITE THEM IN THE BACK<\/strong><\/a><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On the congressional side, Buck told Gowdy that he and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/rep-ken-buck-pans-latest-gop-big-tech-task-force-proposal-doesnt-go-far-enough\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">his fellow House Republicans<\/a> hope to promote more competition among social media companies and revealed there are bills to ensure that this can happen.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/download\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For the last three and a half years, we have investigated, we\u2019ve proposed different bills. The Democrat leaders, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, have made sure that those bills did not get to floor. I am hoping Kevin McCarthy as speaker gets the bills to floor, we get a vote on those bills and we force the Senate to vote. President Biden says he is in favor. Let\u2019s see if he will sign them,&#8221; Buck concluded.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/rep-ken-buck-warns-social-media-companies-control-flow-information-control-elections\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/rep-ken-buck-warns-social-media-companies-control-flow-information-control-elections <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rep.
