> The DOJ needs to break them up for violating the public trust...

Twitter, Facebook, et al are entertainment. There's not trust to violate.

Even if they were an informational service having the DOJ "break them up" would be way more illegal than anything they could directly publish.

    You can have a monopoly and not abuse your power, or you can have your monopoly broken up. The Sherman Antitrust act still exists. Law still exists. There are already multiple anti-trust investigations underway by the states, and the DOJ.

    There is bipartisan support to break them up. Ask Warren.

    What is illegal about enforcing the law?
