Why not satyanadella ? Seems to be a glaring omission. Possible Microsoft has better relationships with gov? I have no idea. Curious... If the 4 at the hearing face anti-trust battles and MSFT does not, it quickly becomes far and away the most valuable company in the world.

A waste of taxpayer dollars...but this is what Congress does best.

Maybe after the meeting they could write a check for a couple of million each to help keep the food lines going.

Hope law she gives the president the world

Thus will be interesting... stay tuned.

Crybaby Republicans wasting time

Time to break’em up!

Upon learning of anti trust subcommittees request, Zuckerberg had to be restrained and tased for aggressive exhale and disproportionately threating half blink!

And I'm sure their testimony will meet the highest ethical standards of truth. 😅😅😅

Ask Jeff Bezos why he doesn’t eradicate world hunger.

Who's paying for this and who wins?

Looking forward to it.

distraction. 😒 ImpeachBarrNOW

Wonder if they can be bothered to apply antitrust to monopolistic pricing in healthcare.

JeffBezos invests heavily in Tyson’s Virginia because I live here to get return on investment. The reason why he invests in Tyson’s because he knows I am very famous as Keanu Reeves, Brad Pitt, Angelina, Charlize, Lady Gaga. But he doesn’t have to pay me for advertising, smart.

Is this where they officially hand over control of our gov’t to corporations?

Will be interesting to see if the anti-trust scrutiny pressures these guys to play down earnings and growth in quarterly investor calls.

Love to see their Masks! They might be hot sellers on Amazon! It’ll be remote waste of precious time against the clock of pandemic stimulus relief

In the USA, we are in need pandemic funds $ -negotiated ASAP! Are y’all considering asking the Tech Giants for Contributions ? Just asking for millions of Americans that need stimulus $$ to live, eat and healthcare !

These guys don’t look like the rest of us!! Why is that?
