This document is an excerpt from a news article, likely the Wall Street Journal from September 2018, detailing the political scrutiny Google faced. It discusses criticism from conservatives like President Trump and Kevin McCarthy over alleged search bias, and from Democrats like Mark Warner and Elizabeth Warren over a planned search engine for China. The document includes a quote from Google's CEO, Mr. Pichai, regarding engagement with Congress and appears to be an evidentiary submission to the House Oversight Committee.
