Pete Buttigieg, Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and Andrew Yang have all received monetary totals of six figure sums from Big Tech companies (and Google hasn't given any of these Democratic Party presidential candidates any money yet).
It also needs to be mentioned that every candidate who has accepted money from Google (and hasn't given it back), has been given at least $1,000.
There are also many candidates who have received money from Alphabet and Amazon.com between the $1,000 and $2,500 range.
............................................................................................................................................
As of September 21st, according to the opensecrets.org website (Center for Responsive Politics), there are 158 Congressional/Presidential candidates during the 2020 election cycle that have accepted an average donation of $2,336.41 from Facebook. Facebook has given $369,152 to candidates.
One of the 158 candidates, Joseph Crowley, a Democrat from New York has given $5,400 back to Facebook. At the moment, Crowley doesn't intend to run for office.
From Twitter, 50 candidates have accepted an average of $830.06. Twitter has given $41,503 to candidates.
From Google, 159 candidates have accepted an average of $2,135.22. Ten of the 159 candidates have given their money back to Google. Those candidates are G K Butterfield (D-NC), John Conyers Jr. (D-MI), Jim Cooper (D-TN), Joseph Crowley (D-NY), Mazie K Hirono (D-HI), Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Bill Nelson (D-FL), Brian Schatz (D-HI), Maxine Waters (D-CA) and the lone Republican, Kevin Yoder from Kansas.
An additional three of the 159 candidates, Liz Cheney (R-WY), Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) and Adam Schiff (D-CA) have accepted $0 from Google.
So that's 13 candidates who have decided not to accept money from Google.
From Alphabet, 343 candidates have accepted an average of $3,580.76. Nine of those 343 candidates have given their money back to Alphabet, which Google is a subsidiary of Alphabet. (All nine of those candidates also have given their money back to Google).
Amy Klobuchar, a Democratic party presidential candidate from Minnesota, one of the ten people who gave their money back to Google (she gave $500 back to Google), has accepted $5,474 from Alphabet.
Mazie K Hirono (D-HI), gave $2,500 back to Google but only gave $2,491 back to Alphabet.
From Alphabet, Cheney has accepted $1,000 while Schiff accepted $2,305. Jackson Lee has not accepted any money from Alphabet.
Alphabet has given $1,228,202 to candidates.
From Apple, 179 candidates have accepted an average of $2,081.32. Apple has given $372,557 to candidates.
From Amazon.com, 407 candidates have accepted an average of $2,449.29. Four of those candidates gave their money back to Amazon. Those candidates are: Ryan Costello (R-PA) who doesn't intend to run for office at the moment, Stephen F Lynch (D-MA), Chris Smith (R-NJ) and Rob Wittman (R-VA). (On the October 16th report on the opensecrets.org website, Costello did not appear on the report and Wittman has accepted $1,500 from Amazon.com.)
Amazon.com has given $996,861 to candidates.
From the Council on American-Islamic Relations, five candidates have accepted an average of $227. Those candidates who have accepted money are: Andre Carson ($1,000 D-IN), Jay Inslee ($20 D-WA), Ilhan Omar ($100 D-MN), Bernie Sanders ($5 D-VT) and Elizabeth Warren ($10 D-MA).
CAIR has given $1,135 to candidates.
Ilhan Omar (D-MN) accepted $5,000 from CAIR in 2018, and she married her brother. Incest is illegal in the United States of America.
Kamala Harris (D-CA), a Democratic Party presidential candidate, also accepted $1,750 from CAIR in 2016.
From Big Tech companies, (which none of the following people have received any money from Google but have accepted money from all of the other Big Tech companies mentioned in this story), the following presidential candidates have accepted six figure sums: Pete Buttigieg has received $263,659, Kamala Harris has received $202,595, Bernie Sanders has received $301,722 and Elizabeth Warren has received $248,280.
Meanwhile, CAIR asked Twitter to ban investigative journalist and, now, Florida District 21 Congressional candidate Laura Loomer, a Republican, because she tells the truth and has exposed the truth about Ilhan Omar, the Muslim Congresswoman from Minnesota, who married her brother.
Loomer has also exposed Jack Dorsey because he lied to Congress on September 5th, 2018, in which he said that Twitter doesn't censor conservative viewpoints and Tweets. Loomer has said Twitter does censor conservatives. It is a crime to lie to the United States' Congress. The likelihood of Jack Dorsey going to jail will significantly increase if Loomer gets elected to Congress in Florida.
Twitter banned Loomer on November 21st, 2018, the day before Thanksgiving. She has also been banned from Facebook, Instagram, Medium, Paypal, Venmo, Chase Bank (temporarily, she changed banks), GoFundMe, Uber, Lyft, Uber Eats, Teespring, Barry University (where she graduated from college), and probably many other places and things as well.
CAIR is giving less money to Congressional and Presidential candidates than Twitter is. So why should Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey continue to listen to CAIR?
