Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) on Tuesday promoted his upcoming book, The Tyranny of Big Tech, which he claims "the corporate media and the woke mob don't want you to read" after an unsuccessful cancellation attempt.
In doing so, some eagle-eyed observers noticed that Hawley posted the message to Twitter from his iPhone and linked to a pre-sale on Amazon, which means the senator utilized three of the Big Tech companies he so often takes aim at to get the word out about his anti-Big Tech book. Whatever it takes to make the sale. Tim O'Donnell
