Biden’s Big Business Bust?

As of late, the popularity of big business across the country has taken a nosedive. Bipartisan efforts to regulate and break up monopolies and industry giants have been gradually treading along in Congress, though Republicans and Democrats have very different end goals in mind. Regardless, millions of Americans remain increasingly skeptical and outright angry at Big Tech and the country’s largest corporations for practically getting away with theft from the American middle class. Public outrage has reached a boiling point that these corporations can no longer shy away from as they have in the past.

Article by Jose Backer from Liberty Nation.

Reports from sources inside the White House suggest that President Biden may issue an executive order cracking down on big business as early as this week. Specifics of the order involve requesting federal regulators in the Justice Department and Federal Trade Commission to review and modify their current oversight practices across a broad range of industrial sectors.

Sources also indicate that most of the emphasis in the potential order appears to be placed on increased analysis and review of large corporate mergers and acquisitions. Mergers between CVS Pharmacy and Aetna, Charter Communications and Time Warner Cable, and Amazon’s acquisition of MGM Studios represent just a few examples of the type of deals the Biden administration may wish to crack down on in the future.

Pundits have already jumped at the news, loading heaps of praise for the Biden administration’s apparent foray into uncharted territory. Should Biden follow through with the reports, comparisons to former trust-busting President Theodore Roosevelt will likely be made by his usual media allies. Progressives have long called for increased regulation of corporations but almost uniformly believe that Big Tech should further censor conservative voices that they deem dangerous to public wellbeing and their ideology.

Even conservatives who justifiably fear increased involvement from the federal government in the private sector might find relief in the idea of some woke industry giants being taken down a notch. With combined support from all these groups, the president has a wide-ranging mandate to address the grievances of millions of Americans. On the other hand, any directives from the president may provide additional cover for the Biden administration to take even more aggressive action against the oil and gas sector.

President Biden’s recent appointment of Professor Lina Khan as chair of the Federal Trade Commission has already sparked fear at Amazon, and the corporation requested that the fierce critic recuse herself from any investigations into the company’s alleged monopolistic practices. Khan has been described as a primary leader in the antitrust movement by the media and is assuredly poised to crack down on Big Tech should the Biden administration expand the FTC’s regulatory powers. Her appointment lends credit to ongoing reports about the current administration’s desire to weaken big business and win public support.

Congress has already begun deliberating on six different bills addressing the grievances many Americans have against Big Tech. Of course, none of the proposed bills even mention the censuring of conservative voices on platforms like YouTube and Facebook. With Congress already beginning to work on reining in these purported monopolies and corporate giants, the authenticity of a potential executive order from President Biden may prove to be unnecessary at best – and a nefarious power-grab at worst.

New Conservative Network Seeks Crowdfunding Help

They say we have to go big or go home. We’re trying to go big and bring the patriotic truth the the nation, but we need help.

Readers may or may not realize that over the past year, we’ve been bringing more conservative news and opinion outlets under our wing. Don’t take our expansion as a sign of riches; all of the “acquisitions” have been through sweat and promises of greater things to come for all involved. As a result, we’ve been able to bring together several independent media sites under a unified vision of preventing America from succumbing to the progressive, “woke,” Neo-Marxist ideologies that are spreading like wildfire across America.

The slow and steady reopening of America is revealing there was a lot more economic hardship brought about from the Covd-19 lockdowns than most realize. While we continue to hope advertising dollars on the sites go up, it’s simply not enough to do things the right way. We are currently experiencing a gap between revenue and expenses that cannot be overcome by click-ads and MyPillow promos alone (promo code “NOQ” by the way).

To overcome our revenue gap and keep these sites running, our needs fluctuate between $3000-$7000 per month. In other words, we’re in the red and hemorrhaging.

The best way you can help us grow and continue to bring the truth to the people is by donating. We appreciate everything, whether a dollar or $10,000. Anything brings us closer to a point of stability when we can hire writers, editors, and support staff to make the America First message louder. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well.

As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report and the other sites in the network going.

Thank you and God Bless,
JD Rucker
