It's the content that will get the most clicks.

Yeah, most incendiary.

And so I think they need to be held accountable for that content.

And the biggest tell in my mind is that the billionaires who run these algorithms don't let their own kids use the product.

And so why on earth would we subject our kids, the kids of America, to these predatory algorithms when the billionaires themselves don't even let their own kids on the platforms?

I saw- It's not just young men.

Well, one, I'm a proud Texas Democrat, but I already have a religion and I already have a sports team, Hook'em Horns, since we're here in Austin, Texas.

So I have no problem sharing hard truths with my own party.

I have no problem disagreeing with the powers that be in my own party.

I'm a Democrat because I feel like it's the best vehicle to unite working people so that we can improve the lives of ourselves, our families, and our communities.

But if the Democratic Party is not doing that, I have no problem calling it out so that it can do a better job of that work.

And honestly, in Texas, we have been suffering for 30 years under one party rule.

And one party rule, no matter if it's the Republican Party or the Democratic Party, always leads to extremism and corruption because there's not a check on that power.

There's no competition.

And so I think what we have the opportunity to do here is finally end that 30 years of one party rule in Texas.

And if we do that, I think it's gonna improve public policy for all of us.

My party talks about turning Texas blue, Republicans talk about keeping Texas red.

I think the best color for Texas is purple.

I think she would look great in purple.

Because in a purple state, every politician is on their toes, right?
