Today, everything is connected to the Internet; it is the foundation on which our economy, democracy & attention rest. @HouseJudiciary will begin a long overdue investigation to determine if dominant digital platforms have harmed Americans in the marketplace & the voting booth.

yea, I’m sure the Republican Senate will pass legislation to fix that.

You mean like the >100 House Bills that are sitting on the Turtle's desk? Hopefully, they'll have public hearings so citizens can see how social media is profiting off them. If we take the Senate, think how many bills will be ready to go!

If they spend the next year continuing to pass useless bills and investigating nonsense irrelevant to trump, it’s a very safe bet they lose both the house and senate.

You think FB letting Russia and their bots run wild on their platform, even after being warned, is irrelevant to where we are today? You think they'll do better in 2020? FB is doing a study to see if they should support Nazis on their platform, ffs. Listen to their hearings!

Please, tell me more what I think!

Money that was to be used to protect our voting systems has not been spent. Everyone in a legal position to create policies has left or been fired. McConnell refuses to put through any legislation especially regarding voting rights, protects, etc.

Can we spend a few days searching for a few real men who are imprisoned in the US Senate? There has to be enough of them who love our country and their fellow citizens enough to register as Democrats, change the majority and demote McConnell so he can no longer lock their vote.pic.twitter.com/YhvTcr7QnB

Work to do skoobie-doo. It is not beyond the reach of our elected reps. The country is feeling the pull towards the truth.

I think Pelosi wants to waste time as much as she can and drag it to 2020 , the option been given to them by framers "Inherent Power " , does she think we're idiots we don't know about it ?
