and state officials routinely collaborate. in this case, you know, you have some reservations by state officials who believe the federal government is not moving fast enough or quickly enough. polling recently showed that i think it s like over 70% of americans don t know that facebook owns instagram and whatsapp. they don t understand the total power and reach that they have. mark zuckerberg is talking. he s out. he s doing a series of interviews. we saw him on fox news, nbc last night. one thing that struck me about his interview last night was the defense he gave for facebook, allowing false political ads to continue running on the platform. let s listen to that for a moment. do you feel like you re giving a green light to politicians that no, look lie, lie, lie? i believe that that it is important for people to be able to hear and see what politicians are saying. i think that when they do that, that speech will be heavily scrutinized by other journalists, by oth
whistleblower. what is the whistleblower talking about? congress has a right and it s law u that congress needs to know this information and he needs to turn that over. the main point is we need to get to the bottom of this. we need to find the truth. the american people deserve to know the truth this president is putting our national security in jeopardy for his own personal gain and that s what we need to find out and that s what congress needs to do and why we need to take action on this. did you speak to nancy pelosi before you came out with this? i came out with the decision to make this decision on my own. did anybody on the byline speak to nancy pelosi bf they did this? we all kind of worked together on h op-ed and before we released it, we came up, informed the speaker of what we were doing. sorry, don t mean to interrupt, but nancy pelosi is talking. we appreciate your time. must repair and we must heal

donald trump, right, number one, so this is about embarrassing him. it s not about embarrassing him. it s about a felony. first of all. secondly, you know, and we heard this in the fox interview today. the president kind of weaves these scenarios without any basis in fact in order to explain away what the facts really are. and i think now, you know, michael cohen is talking. he made it very clear in court the other day that he doesn t want, as i think he put it, history to judge him as the villain in all this and we know who he thinks the villain is, which is donald trump. so this is going to continue, and the special counsel and the southern district of new york have a treasure-trove of information that they got from michael cohen s office, which, by the way, when it was raided, remember how angry donald trump was about that? oh, yeah. remember. right? well, now he, you know, now michael cohen is not his friend, but there s a lot of stuff there that we don t know about. so the lay
