Social media platforms 'pander to the White House' -Pelosi

"All they want is to not pay taxes. They got their tax break in 2017, the tax scam that gave all those advantages to the high end. And they don't want to be regulated. So they pander to the White House," Pelosi said.

U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to order a review of a law that has long protected internet companies, including Twitter and Facebook, an extraordinary attempt to intervene in the media that experts said was unlikely to survive legal scrutiny.

News of the proposed executive order came after Trump attacked Twitter for tagging the president's tweets about unsubstantiated claims of fraud in mail-in voting with a warning prompting readers to fact-check the posts.
