Chuck Schumer, Who Controls Whether Tech Monopolies Will Face Anti-Trust Action, Has Daughters Who Work for... Amazon and FaceBook

Oh.

Ohhhhhh.

Oh I see now. It's all fake. It's all rigged.

It's all a scam and we're the marks.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is responsible for shepherding antitrust bills that aim to crack down on Big Tech -- and both his children are on the payroll of companies the proposals would seek to rein in, On the Money has learned.

Jessica Schumer is a registered lobbyist at Amazon, according to New York state records. Alison Schumer works at Facebook as a product marketing manager.

Advocates of the legislation fear that the tech companies' ties to Sen. Schumer's children could create a conflict of interest, people close to the matter told On the Money. And they say Schumer's familial connection to the tech companies is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the cozy relationships some members of Congress have with the firms.

"When you put together the amount of money Speaker [Nancy] Pelosi made off tech with the fact that leader Schumer's two kids work for giant tech companies, Democrats are going to have a very hard time explaining if major legislation doesn't move forward this session," one progressive operative told The Post.

And I mean, why not point out that Nancy Pelosi continues betting on stocks whose fortunes she controls and has advanced knowledge of, and also that her crooked son is involved in five companies currently being investigated by the feds?
