so they hired eric schmidt and he became the grownup in the room. >> what's the one thing each of youergey. just kidding. no, go ahead. >> eric and larry. >> i don't think any of us expected google to become as big and as dominant as they did. >> google has become more than a verb. it's become part of our culture. >> one day you're using yahoo to search things and then who even knows how it changed and then you started using google and it became so easy. >> it came up yahoo. why did you switch to google? >> i pick google all the time when i look for something. i don't know why. >> one decision, i'm going to google it. every individual who made it contributed to a multibillion-dollar decision. >> now this privately owned popular search engine is going public and you can buy a piece of it. the company announced it will be selling $2.7 billion in stock in the most highly anticipated initial public offering in years. >> if the ipo of google goes well, that could open the door for a lot of other ipos. >> in the early 2000s silicon valley was recovering from the dotcom bust. it was a wastel

we had eric schmidt on the show who pointed out some of these companies are using outdoor rhythms to outrage. it worked really well. he is spreading disinformation. did this catch up with him? >> mark zuckerberg personally and facebook generally sustained billions of dollars of brand risk. when he talks about the meta-verse, that scares consumers. apple is a justifiable steward of consumers. the idea that oculis replacing the apple ecosystem is scary to a lot of consumers. carleton: facebook acknowledges users spending less time on the platform. they reported fewer users. that was a first for them. are they leaving for platforms like tiktok, or his social media on its way out the way we've been experiencing it? laura: exactly right. people don't want to talk to friends but create communities around tiktok or reddit, creator is of interest with people they don't know. that is where it is going and one of the 7 areas, content that has nothing to do with your friends but these monopoly businesses, he goes into areas where other competitors have been for five to 10 years. >> facebook is

we might forget that eric schmidt had to leave apple's board in large part because of the whole androide apple is getting paid off that search, but i don't know how much datawise google is really getting out of it. >>> from ads to enterprise i spoke with google cloud ceo thomas kurian for an update on business earnings. cloud in a quarter grew 45% year over year with a backlog showing momentum and proving he can grow the business without doing m & a and he's not ruling that out either. >> more than half our team has joined since covid and we're very proud of the team we built, because we've added a lot of people we've shown the growth that all work together during the period of covid and both in introducing new products with velocity, building part shirr's ins we need and ecosystem and taking products direct in many, many countries around the world so we're very proud of what we've accomplished we've built a company in three years, for all intents and purposes. >> also asked kurian how a rising interest rate environment might affect the klcloud busines if it happening focused providing

but ted cruz got behind another candidate, eric schmidt, the state attorney general showing how thisblicans is that because the support will be fractured, gritons could emerge and become the nominee and be vulnerable in a general election. talking to republican leaders, they are watching this very closely. mitch mcconnell told me that he's watching this closely. i asked him, were you engaged in this race, trying to defeat griotns in this primary if he catches steam? he would not rule that possibility out. democrats believe that gritons emerges they could see a repeat of 2012 when claire mccaskill won there when todd akin, a controversial republican, won that nomination. >> and obviously candidates always matter but they matter particularly this cycle for republicans. if you look at the map, 34 seats are up for grabs. 14 democrats are holding 20. republicans are holding. so they're got to hold onto their people. but they have some pick-up opportunities. there are some candidates in these states that are problematic. eric gritons is one of them. but in other places you have a case of a

eric schmidt is seeking temporary restraining orders against schools continuing to enforce mask mandatewho exactly are you fighting against? school boards, teachers unions the parents, what? >> we filed 45 lawsuits against school districts across missouri that move forward with these mask mandates. they are ineffective, they are illegal under missouri law and it is wrong. these lawsuits are an attempt to pry power from government bureaucrats and return it to parents and families. there is no study that shows masks are effective. even the most ardent supporters are calling them nothing but face decorations. we know there's serious harmful effects forcing 5-year-olds to wear masks whether it is loss of learning were increased trips to speech and language were social and psychological damage being done. it's not about data. when you follow the data the states that have mask mandate, states that have no mask mandates doing better than those that have mask mandate. it's not about science or data but power and control. they are trying to pry control from bureaucrats. dave: what we have discov

eric schmitt. ♪ attorney general schmidt: hello patriots. i am eric schmitt from the free state of missouri.job, ladies and gentlemen, is simple. each day i wake up and go to the office on sue joe biden, i go home. i get up the next day, i sue joe biden, and i go home again. listen, we have witnessed unprecedented authoritarian assaults on liberty in the constitution under the guise of so-called covid precautions. two weeks to flatten the curve turned into two years to push an authoritarian, socialist agenda. the pathway to tierney, folks, and you do not have to have -- to tierney -- tyranny, folks, is paved with emergency executive orders. the difference between the left and the right is they used power to push government encroachment into our lives and we use the power of government to protect liberty. for freedom. to stop government encroachment so people can live their lives and pursue their dreams. what we have seen in the country is unprecedented. what we know is the left is playing for keeps. they are playing for keeps, folks. and we are not having traditional political debates in the

eric schmidt is attorney general of the great state of missouri and he joined me now.they did is outrageous. take them to pieces. >> we opened a formal investigation, the equivalent of a subpoena to get to the bottom of this. it is important to put it in context. these big tech giants are not above the law. missouri and other states have taken them to court and go fund me should be no different. when you hold yourself out as a company that goes to cause people are choosing you don't change the rules in the middle of the game. working people are tired of being told what to do. they are tired of being told they are not smart enough to make decisions. we dodged a bullet, to take the vaccine mandate to the supreme court. we are talking about the supply chain issues. it is important for people to know it will not be diverted to a cause they don't believe in or terms of service being unequally utilized, picking and choosing which ones are okay, companies are not above the law and we will look under the hood. stuart: i offer congratulations, you won in your state against mask
