Facebook has hired Jennifer Newstead, a Trump-appointed legal adviser at the State Department, as its new general counsel

Facebook has hired Jennifer Newstead, a President Donald Trump-appointed legal adviser at the State Department, as its new general counsel as the company faces scrutiny from governments around the world over how it manages content and data on its sprawling social network.

Her hire reflects the increasingly global nature of Facebook's business and legal woes, most recently demonstrated when Sri Lanka shut down the social network after a series of terrorist attacks on Sunday. The company is also facing rising calls for regulation from countries across Europe and Asia in addition to the United States.Sign Up

cindyrosedotcom That's Mark Fuckerberg in drags!

She helped write the PATRIOT ACT. enough said.

We all know at this point Facebook was nothing but a front for the CIAs LifeLog attempt. Reality isn’t as it seems ppl. Time to wake up and start researching.

In hiring Ms Newstead: 1. Facebook is telling Trump and his followers that they are not opponents of GOP or their agenda. This also exposes Sheryl Sandberg as a hypocrite, and Facebook's corruption of morals: none of which is surprising!

Good she will assist in cleaning up legal requirements

Did she secretly resign from the state dept? Guess she didn't want to go down with a sinking Trump dinghy.

Suckerberg desperately wants to stay out of prison

Facebook is evil folks

Facebook has no morals

What could go wrong?

The Fox guarding the Henhouse ... what could go wrong / sarc

Completing the circle

That’s an odd choice. A Trump appointed legal advisor as FB’s new general counsel? The amount of help FB gave to Trump knowingly is still concerning. FB personnel imbedded in digital campaign Really.

this dude is my neighbor in Hawaii. we are not so sure he is on our side. The fact that he would hire a hitwoman says something.

Of course they did. I have friends who have left, considering it.

Facebook is a Social Media site and should be legally obliged to limit its content to 'Social Media', as in sharing chat and photos between friends. It's ability to disseminate lies, propaganda, and extreme views to millions benefits only its advertisers and extremists.

No fucking collusion there then?

Analysis | Attorney General Barr just defined ‘collusion’ in a way that will make Trump ecstaticThe Justice Department established a baseline for 'collusion' that matches what Trump wants to see. you mean the right way and not the democrats narrative way? color me shocked! an AG that actually sticks to the law and not political sentiment....so refreshing!!!!!! So how come there are all these offshore companies by Trump and the Washington post has not investigated them for money laundering and tax fraud AG Barr used the legal definition of a crime, Conspiracy. An analysis of what a 'not' crime of collusion means will find volunteers only among the rabbits.

Trump Organization Sues House Oversight Panel's Head Over SubpoenaTrump Organization sues House Oversight Committee chairman over subpoena to Trump accounting firm LMAO!!!!!!! These idiots don't realize the reason the accounting firm asked (I repeat, they asked for this) a subpoena is to protect themselves in case Trump tries something so stupid, lol.

Mitt Romney calls out Trump and Trump pushes backPres. Trump lashed out at Sen. Romney on Twitter after the senator said: “I am sickened at the extent and pervasiveness of dishonesty and misdirection by individuals in the highest office of the land, including the President.” (corrects link) I thought Trump had said for years he'd be happy to show his tax returns but can't because he's under audit. This subpoena would get around the audit issue, so shouldn't trump be supporting the subpoena if he really has nothing to hide? Imagine a political party that not only establishes and continues the worst of corruptions, but disallows any sign of honesty in its ranks. Is trump antisocial yet?
