A key Trump administration official is throwing his weight behind a federal investigation into Microsoft, arguing the tech behemoth's cozy relationship with China and willingness to bow to European censorship demands makes them a prime target for scrutiny.
Joe Grogan, who served as director of the Domestic Policy Council during President Trump's first term, praised the Federal Trade Commission's probe into whether Microsoft engaged in anti-competitive practices – a rare moment of bipartisan agreement on reining in Big Tech's stranglehold on American innovation.
"Microsoft's track record on issues from China to European censorship demanded scrutiny," Grogan stated, highlighting concerns that should alarm every patriotic American watching these tech giants sell out our national interests for profit.
Big Tech's China Problem
This investigation comes at a crucial time as the Trump-Vance administration works to drain the swamp and hold corporate America accountable for putting foreign interests ahead of American workers and values. Microsoft's history of cooperation with the Chinese Communist Party while simultaneously censoring American voices at the behest of European bureaucrats represents everything wrong with our current tech oligarchy.
"An FTC investigation probing whether Microsoft employed anti-competitive practices was much needed," Grogan emphasized, noting the company's problematic business practices extend far beyond simple market competition.
While the Biden regime spent four years cozying up to Big Tech and ignoring their anti-American practices, Trump allies like Grogan are making it clear that no corporation – no matter how powerful – should get a free pass when they betray American interests.
This bipartisan support for investigating Microsoft proves that Americans across the political spectrum are fed up with tech giants that suppress free speech, collaborate with our enemies, and crush competition through monopolistic practices.
Patriots should be asking: If a former Trump official is backing this probe, what exactly has Microsoft been hiding? And more importantly, when will we see real consequences for Big Tech's war on American values?
