#Schiff said that #trump used the leverage that he had over the social media companies to "help or hurt their businesses" and extorted the social media companies "to the tune of $60 million." 👀 The cost of Trump's corruption with the social media companies to the American public is "more false claims, more false information, more social harms from an unregulated social media, and potentially more incitement of violence around our elections." /4 #USA #US #USpol #corruption #PayToPlay #extortion
