• During a hearing on Tuesday with the CEO of Google, Democratic Rep. Ted Lieu of California went after a Republican colleague with a history of making racist remarks.
• Rep. Steve King of Iowa, who has repeatedly gotten in hot water over his insensitive comments about race, recently won reelection.

WASHINGTON — A Democratic representative went after a Republican colleague on Tuesday during a hearingwith the CEO of Google, citing negative search results about a congressman who has repeatedly been accused of making racist remarks.

During a House Judiciary Committee hearing in which Google CEO Sundar Pichai testified, Democratic Rep. Ted Lieu of California singled out Republican Rep. Steve King of Iowa, who recently saw many high-profile donors retreat from supporting him in the wake of increased scrutiny over his remarks and actions.

Lieu read headlines from a Google search about House Majority Whip Steve Scalise. Noting that the first few articles about Scalise were favorable to him and included those from conservative media outlets, Lieu asked Pichai whether people at Google were manipulating those results to favor Scalise.

I find it just a bit humorous when a Democrat is supporting a monopoly. Its a strange world.

Even if they were, it doesn't change the fact that Trump shows up when you Google search the word idiot because the algorithm associates it with his name due to the fact that it's used so heavily in conjunction with his name.

Of course most of media are liberals so its natural that Trump would come up first. Search engines are not pure...the stories on Trump perpetuate themselves over and over.

But make not mistake the Ds are buddies to big tech, big tech are like big banks in the past. Google is simply a monopoly and the left loves them.

Again, I find it interesting...

Oh I see... The left is now bosom buddies with all things tech... That's why he shows up... Got it.
