Why Jesus said that?
Yep
he Department of Justice, led by Attorney General Jeff Sessions, has announced that it will follow President Donald Trump’s directives to investigate whether social media companies purposefully hampered conservative voices on their platforms.
In an emailed statement, Justice Department spokesman Devin O'Malley wrote that “the Attorney General has convened a meeting with a number of state attorneys general this month to discuss a growing concern that these companies may be hurting competition and intentionally stifling the free exchange of ideas on their platforms.”
The meeting was spurred, says the statement, by Wednesday’s Senate hearing on the use of social media platforms by foreign influence operations, in which Facebook Chief Marketing Officer Sheryl Sandberg and Twitter founder and CEO Jack Dorsey testified. “We listened to today’s Senate Select Committee on Intelligence hearing…closely,” O’Malley wrote.
The main intent of the hearing, however, was to discuss how foreign influencers are using social media platforms like Facebook to influence elections and spread disinformation. There was very little talk of conservative bias, and the committee chairman, Republican Senator Richard Burr, acknowledged that imposing regulation on these platforms could violate the First Amendment.
Trump and other Republicans have recently argued that social media companies and tech platforms like Google purposely suppress conservative voices on their sites. They have repeatedly called for an investigation into their practices.
“Google search results for 'Trump News' shows only the viewing/reporting of Fake News Media. In other words, they have it RIGGED, for me & others, so that almost all stories & news is BAD. Fake CNN is prominent. Republican/Conservative & Fair Media is shut out,” tweeted Trump last week. “Illegal? 96% of results on 'Trump News' are from National Left-Wing Media, very dangerous. Google & others are suppressing voices of Conservatives and hiding information and news that is good. They are controlling what we can & cannot see. This is a very serious situation-will be addressed!”

A lot is happening, it seems. Trump's bombardment. I like that.
Nice.
Praying for California.
Something is very unsettling about the whole thing. So I am a Conspiracy Theorist because I think it is unusual. Am I wrong? Californians know.
I thought it was today.
Is China involved?
Makes sense. I want to see her arrested soon. I feel for Californians. Sad.
