Crushed: Big Tech’s War on Free Speech

AMERICAN DEMOCRACY IS AT RISK

โ€œNo oneโ€”conservative or liberalโ€”should be comfortable with a few Silicon Valley oligarchs having a monopoly over the marketplace of ideas, and with it, democracy itself.โ€ โ€” Senator Ted Cruz

When the Founding Fathers drafted our Constitution, they had no idea there would be a โ€œBig Techโ€ โ€“ nor any concept of the immense power these companies would wield over our people. But the Fathers did provide mechanisms — a system of check and balances — for the people to stop dangerous monopolies like Google, Facebook, Apple, and Amazon from suffocating our business and political life. Few know more about these mechanisms than Rep. Ken Buck, who has been a leader in Congress fighting against the unchecked power of Big Tech.

In CRUSHED: Big Techโ€™s War on Free Speech, Buck exposes the bullying and predatory behavior from the Big Tech giants who have used their technologies and their unbelievable market shares to stifle commerce and censor free speech.  He spells out the inside details of how these companies restrict free markets, stop competition, increase prices, and ultimately hurt consumers. Even worse, Big Tech companies like Google, Twitter, and Facebook are actively censoring conservative news and views, as they openly manipulate information provided to voters. Ken Buck shows how these tech giants are true monopolies and their concentrated power pose a serious danger for our democracy.

In contrast to the robber barons of the Gilded Age who simply posed a threat to commerce, Big Tech threatens the very core of our political system. They control the flow of information shared with the public for their own financial and political gain. In CRUSHED, Ken Buck argues that while Americans are under siege by Big Tech, we are not destroyed. We can still take on Big tech, fight back and even win. The future of our nation depends on it, he says.

IT IS TIME TO FIGHT BACK!

Praise for DRAIN THE SWAMP: How Washington Corruption is Worse than You Think by Ken Buck

“Congressman Ken Buck pulls back the curtains of Congress to deliver this must-read for anyone who wants to actually drain the swamp in Washingtonโ€”including President Trump. If you love freedom and liberty, you’ll love how my friend Ken exposes the arm-twisting and back-room deals in the Capitol, then offers constitutional solutions for Americans to take their country back!”

โ€”Mark Levin, New York Times bestselling author and host of the nationally syndicated radio show, The Mark Levin Show

“It’s rare to see any politician really shed light on just how corrupting Washington can get. It is even rarer for a sitting member of Congress to do it. Congressman Ken Buck offers a refreshing take on his time in Washington, how the culture in Washington incentivizes a corrupt status quo, and how the American people can change things. This is an eye-opening read.”

โ€”Erick Erickson, host of Atlanta’s Evening News with Erick Erickson and co-author of You Will Be Made to Care: The War on Faith, Family, and Your Freedom to Believe 

“Congressman Ken Buck is a strong conservative with a courageous record of standing up to the bipartisan corruption in Washington. He is a friend and a warrior for liberty, fighting to defend the Constitution and restore power to the American people.”

โ€”Ted Cruz, U.S. Senator, Texas 

“In this pull-no-punches explanation of what’s wrong with Washington, Ken Buck tells it like it is. Every American who wants to drain the swamp should read this book.”

โ€”Mike Lee, U.S. Senator, Utah 

“Today, American democracy is threatened. Political fundraisingโ€”and the power it awards the big fundersโ€”has come to dominate Congress as never before. Congressman Buck’s book is an important exposรฉ that should incite real action for change, both on Capitol Hill and in congressional districts throughout the land.”

โ€”Bill Bradley, former U.S. Senator, New Jersey
