Oh goody, now I don’t have to feel guilty when using Amazon Prime for the time being.
bringing technology companies together in the Trump administration to help streamline government.
I hope they mean eliminating waste and duplication in the functioning of government, and steer clear of, say, that which is found at the IRS or any other area where they can get their hands on personal, private info.
Jared, Ivanka: Your dad's voters are very protective of their privacy, or what's left of it today.

“...Be nice if Bezos got WAPO off Trump’s back...”
This was my first thought was well and I thought this meeting could be an excellent development if this were to now happen as a by product of maybe the start of a decent relationship between President Trump and Bezos.
It has been upsetting that Bezos has been using so much of his power and influence via his WAPO propaganda machine to leak fake news and undermine the President. The Bezos’ owned WAPO has been been non stop in attempting and succeeding in some cases to sabotage the Trump Presidency.
This could ease up now, perhaps, if Bezos realizes that it is better to work with our President... something that I was hoping for ... we will see but this could be a good first step for the anti-Trump fake news to start reigning itself in. I have less hope for the NY Slimes run by that Mexican.
Very smart move.
They’re probably blown away by the fact that they’ll be able to make money without having to have bought him off with lobbyists.
I'd rather see instruction on critical thinking become a requirement in public and private schools, from the elementary grades and on into high school.
Didn’t see a report on this...certainly with any glowing specifics....on WaComPost’s front website page, this morning.
Nothing but continued Trump/Trump admin bashing :(
Be nice if Bezos got WAPO off Trumps back.
Every conservative’s first thought.
He meets with everyone. He’s smart. He knows if he listens, they’ll respect that. Problem is, most liberals don’t want to listen to what YOU have to say. I’m surprised at the Tesla guy quitting.
If the GOP would do some of the heavy lifting for him, it’s going to be a great 4 or 8 years, My Friends.
Taking a typing class is one of the few smart things I did in H.S.. It led to better duty in the military - which was substantial.
I worked with teletype for some time. I could type faster than the machine could handle when I was making a perforated tape for transmission.
Ah, the good old days.
Immigration? Needing fewer people to do more is what computers are FOR. What a maroon.
Same here. But by the time my offspring were one the scene, developers had invented game programs to teach typing, and kids could start to learn it when they were 6 and 7 years old. Mine had one featuring the cartoon character Mario. Lots more fun than those drills in a classroom full of noisy typewriters, too.
As long as you're not left-wing, you're doing fine.
My first thought, as well. Hope he knows they are snakes before he takes them in.
I totally agree. If they could break up Bell Telephone and other big utility companies, they can surely break up Amazon.
Hey! These "guys" were part of the meeting also:
Left to right: Safra Catz, Co-Chief Executive of Oracle; Ginni Rometty, CEO of IBM; Julie Sweet, CEO of Accenture
See post 57.
Everything tangible needs to be manufactured and shipped. Even the computers and machines used to do that. Manufacturing isn’t last century, what is last century is American manufacturing thanks to Government regulations.
The thought of $$$$ may not keep their foul mouths shut for long. They’ll be back to bad mouthing Trump by the 5 o’clock news.
