      I’m glad to see this is getting bipartisan momentum. I’d be curious to hear Lindsay Graham’s thoughts on this alone. I know Warren’s points, but I’m surprised that Lindsay Graham was motivated to work on this in any cooperative fashion with Warren.

    Ok, so, big tech has too much power. Let’s create a government controlled agency to keep them in check, what could go wrong? We all know governments always act in the best interest of their people.

    Ok seriously, the problem is real and important, I’m just not sure this is the solution. Then again, I don’t have any better idea, so maybe it’s worth a try, it can’t make things much worse …can it?

    Fascinating to see these two come together on this. Rare to see cross-aisle collaboration on anything these days.
