All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to making the argument.

0:03.5

Well, unless you've been hiding in a cave somewhere, and perhaps even then, you've known that big tech has had a bit of a problem with, I don't know, people that don't walk the party line.

0:14.4

And in fact, we have all kinds of evidence that has now been showing that the government has been colluding with big tech.

0:21.6

In fact, in some cases, you might even say intimidating big tech to censor voices or to

0:26.0

censor information that it finds inconvenient.

0:28.9

Well, today with us on the show, we have Andrew Riddah, who worked in the Trump White House

and is also the CEO and co-founder of liberation technology services.

0:39.4

this system that we have is. And so, Andrew, thank you very much for joining us.

1:29.1

Thank you so much for having me. So Andrew, real quick, give us a little bit of background on what

1:33.3

exactly you did with the Trump administration and working in the White House.

1:38.2

So I was there all four years. So as you can imagine, served in a variety of different roles.

1:43.1

But for the last two and a half years or so, I was one of the senior advanced leads for the president, President Trump. And what that essentially means is we would go out days to even a couple of weeks ahead of time to set up these events that the president would participate in, whether it's him going
