Report: Elizabeth Warren, Senate Dems, Send Threatening Letters To Tech CEOs Who Contributed To Trump’s Inauguration

It’s always (D)ifferent when the shoe is on the other foot.  Citing a report on Hot Air, The Gateway Pundit reported that Sen. Elizabeth Warren and other Democrats are now sending threatening letters to tech CEOs DEMANDING to know why they dared to contribute to Trump’s inauguration.

“This is from the same party that has spent the last eight years calling Trump a fascist,” Mike LaChance wrote, adding, “You may also recall that they have no problem with contributions like this when they are made to to Democrats, just Trump.”

Of course.

You can read the letter as posted by Sam Altman below:

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

There’s really nothing to be confused about.  As David Strom observed at Hot Air, “Democrats are the political equivalent of mafia bosses who basically run protection rackets.”

“Nice company you have there. Shame if something happened to it.”

Exactly.

He added:

We saw a lot of this behavior over the past few years. One of the techniques used to bully social media companies into censorship was the use of open (and private) threats to use antitrust laws to break up Meta, Twitter, Google and all the tech companies if they did not comply with demands to suppress the speech of conservatives and, frankly, anybody including dissenting Democrats.

Elizabeth Warren and Michael Bennett are trying the same thing by going after people and companies that contributed to the Trump inaugural.

These contributions are standard practice. Obama took millions of dollars from donors, including the companies Warren and Bennet are targeting. So did Joe Biden, even though all the inaugural hoopla was very muted due to insane COVID policies. Presidential libraries get showered with money and no doubt Biden will do his best to vacuum up all that sweet dough once he leaves office.

But, in the eyes of progressives, this time, it’s different.

Because: Orange Man Bad.

Will the intimidation tactic work?  It might have during the first Trump administration, but chances are it won’t this time around, as Strom observed:

Sam Altman, who will likely shoot up the ranks of the world’s wealthiest men due to his leading-edge position in the AI market, clearly isn’t scared of her. I doubt any of the companies and men she is targeting are either.

Protection rackets only work if the victims are intimidated, and the intimidation seems to be wearing off.

The world is healing, although it has taken it long enough. One of the most frustrating things, I find, is predicting disaster, watching it unfold, and only after the maximum damage is done does anybody start paying attention, as if it was all a shock.

This is your modern subversive Democrat Party, America.  Let that sink in.
