President Joe Biden bid a not-so-fond farewell to Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and other members of the tech "oligarchy" he suddenly believes is threatening American freedoms.Silicon Valley had been solidly behind Bill Clinton, Al Gore, and Barack Obama. No more."I want to warn the country of some things that give me great concern," he said in his farewell address on Wednesday night. "And that's the dangerous concentration of power in the hands of a very few ultrawealthy people and the dangerous consequences if their abuse of power is left unchecked. Today, an oligarchy is taking shape in America of extreme wealth, power, and influence that literally threatens our entire democracy, our basic rights and freedoms, and a fair shot for everyone to get ahead. We see the consequences all across America."
Biden went on to compare these tech oligarchs to 19th century robber barons, who were eventually brought to heel by federal legislators.
"More than a century ago, the American people stood up to the robber barons back then and busted the trusts," he said. "We've got to do that again."
It is still the case that most billionaires vote Democrat. And so do union leaders, government workers, and parasites. But those who are actually building for a better America are increasingly frustrated with the Democrats.
Update: Here is the final White House video. It starts by bragging about appointing Blacks, and ends by saying [at 2:33] "together we'll continue to fight for the values that Define the best of who we are we are." No thanks, I am tired of Pres. Biden trying to tell us who we are, and pointing to a lot of Blacks wanting freebies. If you want to comment, go on over to the final Kamala Harris video.

Very strange Biden would suddenly claim to hate oligarchs so much when they poured millions of dollars into his election and personal pockets using his crackhead son as a princeling bag man.
Biden also used many of those same tech oligarchs to unconstitutionally silence his detractors and shut down policy discussion.
Now that former resident of the United States is leaving office, it will be interesting to find out who was actually pulling his strings and moving his lips. Biden was too incompetent and senile to walk across a stage without getting completely lost, as there are more than a dozen such videos highlighting his utter confusion. I highly doubt he was in charge of much of anything after less than the first year of his administration.
Yes, I want to know who has been running the White House. Biden and Harris are puppets.
Roger,
I didn't mention Kamala Harris because she probably was never in charge of anything, she was a token place holder to check boxes...and nothing else. She also is probably a lush, as her quavering incoherent circular Yoga Berra speech patterns only makes complete sense if you realize she's fairly blitzed during most of her 'speeches'...remember "I just looooove Venn diagrams!!"? She sounds exactly like a dispirited wine mom trying to talk to children.
Some comedians have commented that the only way they can duplicate Kamala's strange speaking cadence is if they play her tipsy as hell after one too many margaritas.
My mate in America told me some time ago, that this was Obama's third term (they are only, officially, allowed two terms in office), with the Clinton's as his advisors. An open secret that the American press were too scared to reveal.
Perhaps we'll eventually discover who is giving TTK, the ginger growler, RfA, and the rest, their instructions.
