Kari Lake Responds to Elon Musk’s Unmasking of Democrat Collusion with Big Tech

OPINION | This article contains commentary that reflects the author's opinion.

Republican Kari Lake of Arizona recently responded to the release of “The Twitter Files” by Elon Musk.

“Thank you Elon Musk for revealing the truth to the world,” Lake said.

Internal documents revealed by Elon Musk show that Democrats colluded with the social media giants like Twitter and openly violated Americans’ basic right to free speech.

If certain speech is politically inconvenient, such as the Hunter Biden laptop story, Twitter would censor, delete, and ban users at the Democrats’ request.

“Twitter rigged the 2020 election,” Lake continued. “Big Tech was taking marching orders from the radical left.”

“Everything we said about the Biden crime family was 100% true,” she added. “Joe Biden is compromised.”

President Trump, who was wrongfully banned by Twitter for years until recently reinstated by Musk, says this information proves that Americans have been battling very influential and corrupt social media platforms.

Trump responded, “Wow! That’s a really big story about Twitter and various forms of government Fraud including, specifically, Election Fraud.”

“The same level of Fraud took place with the other Big Tech companies, if not even worse (if that’s possible?),” Trump wrote to Truth Social. “We are living in a VERY CORRUPT COUNTRY &, AS THEY ARE SAYING ALL OVER THE INTERNET, ‘NOTHING WILL BE DONE ABOUT IT BECAUSE THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT & FBI ARE TOTALLY CORRUPT.’”

“But they’ll keep investigating ‘boxes’ that were legally & openly taken from the W.H.,” Trump added.

Trump also said, “So, with the revelation of MASSIVE & WIDESPREAD FRAUD & DECEPTION in working closely with Big Tech Companies, the DNC, & the Democrat Party, do you throw the Presidential Election Results of 2020 OUT and declare the RIGHTFUL WINNER, or do you have a NEW ELECTION?”

“A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution…our great ‘Founders’ did not want, and would not condone, False & Fraudulent Elections!” he said.

In an attempt to downplay the significance of this story, left-wing outlets like The Daily Beast suggests the evidence is “overhyped” and “deeply underwhelming.”

CNN published a report claiming Twitter employees merely “debated how to handle” the Hunter Biden story, and that this information “was already known about the incident.”

In reality, much of this information was never before made public.

Musk released internal emails showing that Biden’s campaign team instructed Twitter employees to remove politically inconvenient content in October 2020, just weeks before the election.

“More to review from the Biden team,” one email read from a Twitter employee with five tweet URLs. “Thanks all.”

“Handled these,” another Twitter employee responded.

Twitter employees were ready and available to help Democrats for political purposes.

Twitter even locked White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany out of her account for sharing content about the Hunter Biden story.
