Capitol and the offices or studios of four companies. You are seeing succecicilline t. He is talking to senator pachai who is the ceo of google. This is the investigation into the behrw do they use that powe . Google choosing what links to show you. Facebook buying up all kinds of Companies Like instagram. Apple makes you buy apps through their app store and demands a cut. Again, you are looking at live video here as cicilline continues to talk, but all four ceos are listening. So video from earlier we were seeing what members were seeing on a big screen. We dont control the video in the hearing room. Congress does. Ceos facing tough questions from democrats and republicans. Heres jim jordan getting a warmup. Ill just cut to the chase. Big techs out to get conservatives. July 20th, 2020, breitbart in the daily caller. We learned google has censored breitbart so much traffic has declined 99 . We will expect more of that to come up.

Youve got four ceos and just a whole host of topics to get to. So this could well run into the night. But the idea i want to leave you with here is this is not just showmanship. This is part of an actual investigation into the behavior of apple, amazon, facebook, and google. I can imagine so many of those congress men, they want to know so much from each one. I can imagine this going well into the night. Thanks, scott. Speaking of congress, just in texas republican representative louis goemer has tested positive for the w sched this morning but tested positive. He was prone to not wearing a mask around capitol hill. But yesterday he did wear one. Taking it off while questioning attorney general william barr. Barr is going to be tested today. Gohmert appears to be the 11th member of congress to test positive for covid19. Meanwhile, the president is doubling down on his posting of a controversial video on twitter. It shows people claiming to be doctors who say that the drug hydroxychloroquine works. Now the fda says it does not. One of those doctors featured in that video has also posted claims that medicines are made with alien dna. The president says that he still supports the use of hydroxychloroquine, a fact that he doubled down on this morning. All i want to do is save things. I dont care if its hydroxyor anything else. All i want to do is save lives. If we can save lives, thats great. One thing were doing very well on vaccines and very well on therapeutics. So thats very important. The president made the comments while departing for texas for a series of fundraisers. Well, a new and easy testing method now coming to the bay area. Also more testing sites at a time when we are learning more about who is getting tested and who is getting sick here in the south bay.

And, yes, we are learning more about who is testing positive in a Facebook Live the Santa Clara CountyPublic Health department does this three times a week. They announced that the latino population is bearing the brunt of this outbreak in the south bay. Latinos represent almost half the cases, even though they are only a quarter of the population. The department didnt offer an explanation as to why thats the case, why theyre seeing such a higher number of people testing positive. The highest concentrations of cases are in East San Jose and south county. And more than half the people who have contracted covid are under 35 years of age. So its not a disease of old people. Its a disease of all people, people who may notg people. Have a lot of symptoms or feel sick all the time, and maybe with no symptoms with still bring that disease home to the family, your mom, my dad, and, again, not willingly or knowingly sometimes, but they could potentially infect them if theyre not really safe.

That statue that you mentioned was of sir Francis Drake. He stood with a flag planted in the ground as well as a sword. That statue is now gone and its nothing but gravel. Thats because the lake spur city manager removed it after protesters with a rally planned tomorrow said they would tear it down themselves if it still stood. Now the city tells us the statue was being stored until conversations about its next steps can be discussed. This move comes after petition to change the name of the boulevard went into circulation. And last month those organizers held a protest in this very spot protesting the statues presence. Those protesters were hoping to enact change and have the statue of that man that took part in the slave trade removed. We spoke with one of those organizers of that june protest today and the moments after he first saw that removed statue. Take a listen to what he had to say. I grew up here, and i had always known the statue was sir Francis Drake. And i realize that now is the time we had to take it down. And so we just started advocating to bring it down peacefully, and today we see the fruits of our labors right here in this empty ground. Reporter and you just missed someone. They were walking by with their dog. Theres actually a sign on the other side o statue was removed and what exactly happened in the overnight Francis Drake has an extensive presence here in the bay area.
