      You can pretty much sum up everything about Facebook in 2019 by this Rep. Williams (R-TX) quote — “I’m really glad you’re a capitalist"

      Rep. Foster (D-IL) may be the only congressperson who actually understands code.

      Illinois Rep. Sean Casten (D) name-checked @JennyMcCarthy's terrible anti-vax views when asking Zuckerberg what FB would allow to be posted. Warms my heart.

          Remarkable moment during which Rep. Dean (D-PA) suggests Facebook is paying for empty rooms at Trump Int’l Hotel and doing business with the hotel in an attempt to curry favor for getting Libra approved. (Sorry, fell a few minutes behind)pic.twitter.com/8TbcDiEbV6

          And that is a wrap on a crazy day of testimony from Zuckerberg which makes sense as I went in to this thinking it would be pretty boring because, well, Libra. Shows what I know, right?

          This pretty much sums up today in terms of how today went. It was supposed to be about Libra. There WAS some discussion of Libra and cryptocurrency! But there was a lot of there things aired, too. just nutty.https://twitter.com/dseetharaman/status/1187098444663422976 …

          Six hours later, the hearing is ending with Rep. McHenry saying: "We still don't have a deeper understanding of how Libra would work." six. hours. later.

          So this went kinda viral. Is the 40-year-old white dude version of “check out SoundCloud” just “Check out my LinkedIn”?

          Because that's the correct and respectful way to address a member of Congress during proceedings.
