Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Saturday on CNN’s “Smerconish” that “we lose total control” if social media content is not more regulated. Clinton said, “We need national action and sadly, our Congress has been dysfunctional when it comes to addressing these threats to our children. So you’re absolutely right.
