This is extraordinary and revealing. One of the most powerful politicians in the United States just said she’s going to break up an American company so that they can’t criticize her anymore.
Elizabeth Warren

I didn’t write the loopholes you exploit, @amazon – your armies of lawyers and lobbyists did. But you bet I’ll fight to make you pay your fair share. And fight your union-busting. And fight to break up Big Tech so you’re not powerful enough to heckle senators with snotty tweets.

No that’s not what she’s doing. She’s working to make sure your gigantic monopolistic power, so seemingly more exploitative and mendacious every single day, is finally repudiated for the sake of our democracy. #ThankYouElizabeth

There us no bigger and more powerful monopoly than the US Government. Even Amazon doesn't have nukes, or an air force that can drop them on people.

Do you not have Amazon Prime?

That's what she started the tweet with. Why'd she get personal about it at the end? Dumb remark, and dangerous. And not good form to suggest the way to limit Amazon's abuses it to match them with abuse of her own power.

It is Elizabeth Warren and the government that have way too much monopolistic power. I can not believe American citizens have allowed them to run up the record deficits over the past 40 years while allowing almost every senator to become so rich and powerful.

The last part about snotty tweets was a HUGE misstep and drowns out whatever other messages she has

She is threatening an American for using their 1st amendment right to freely speak without fear of government retaliation which is actually a violation of her oath of office to uphold the Constitution and she should be censored by the Senate or resign !

That's precisely what she's doing, Marianne. I have criticisms of Amazon, but her targeting an American corporation like that is no different than when Trump did the same thing.
