MARIA: CONGRESS IS MOVING TO RESTRICTION CHINESE OWNED APP TIKTOK FROM U.S. GOVERNMENT DEVICES OVER NATIONAL SAFETY AND SECURITY THREATS. JOINING ME CURRENTLY IS THE COMMISSIONER OF THE FCC, ELDERLY COMMISSIONER, REPUBLICAN POLITICIAN BRENDAN KARR. BRENDAN, IT'' S WONDERFUL TO HAVE YOU TODAY. MANY THANKS SO MUCH FOR BEING RIGHT HERE. YOU HAVE BEEN SPOT-ON ON THE CHINA RISK. WE APPRECIATE YOUR TIME THIS MORNING. I GUESS MY FIRST CONCERN IS, WHY WOULD ANY GOVERNMENT AUTHORITIES HAVE TIKTOK ON THEIR PHONE? >> > > YES, EXCELLENT INQUIRY. HOPEFULLY BY THE END OF THIS WEEK WE'' LL HAVE A DETERMINATION THAT PASSES BOTH RESIDENCES OF CONGRESS THAT BANS TIKTOK ON ALL FEDERAL TOOLS. I THINK THAT'' S A RECOGNITION THAT THE APP POSTURES An EXTREMELY ONE-OF-A-KIND HAZARD. THIS ISN'' T A BAN CONCERNING ALL SOCIAL MEDIA.IT ' S DISTINCT TO TIKTOK. 19 STATES HAVE TAKEN ACTIVITY TO BANG TALK FROM STATE TOOLS. MARIA: WALK US THROUGH THE THREAT. IS IT JUST THE SECURITY OR IS IT ALSO SPEWING OUT PROP PROPAGANDA SO INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE TIKTOK THINK THE CHINESE COMMUNIST EVENT IS THE MANAGEMENTS OF THE WORLD TO WATCH? AS WELL AS FOLLOW? >> > > YOU ' RE RIGHT. IT ' S REALLY BOTH. ONE IS ALL THE INFORMATION THAT ' S BEEN FLOWING BACK TO BEIJING. EVERYTHING FROM SEARCH AND BROWSING HISTORY, POTENTIALLY KEY STROKE PATTERNS, BIOMETRICS AND IT CANISTER BE USED FOR FOREIGN INFLUENCE CAMPAIGNS. WE'' VE SEEN IT AHEAD OF OUR LATEST MIDTERM POLITICAL ELECTIONS, THE CCP'' S PROPAGANDA ARM UTILIZED TIKTOK TO TARGET SPECIFIC U.S. POLITICIANS FOR CRITICISM AHEAD OF THE ELECTION. WE SAW THE PROBLEM SCENARIO BACK IN BEIJING, BYTEDANCE OFFICIALS WERE USING TIKTOK TO EFFORT OR PREPARATION TO TRACK THE LOCATIONS OF SPECIFIC AMERICANS BUT EVEN MORE BROADLY YOU'' RE RIGHT. PARENTS REQUIRED TO BE REALLY, EXTREMELY CONCERNED. A GREAT DEAL OF PARENTS THINK THAT TIKTOK RUNS LIKE TWITTER OR FACEBOOK WHERE THEY'' RE LOOKING AT THEIR FRIEND'' S CONTENT. THIS IS WEB CONTENT DICTATED BY BEIJING. RECENTLY THE NEW YORK TIMES REPORTED THAT 13-YEAR-OLD WOMEN WERE REVEALING THEM BODY IMAGE MATERIAL, EATING CONDITION CONTENT, SELF DAMAGE CONTENT WITHIN THIRTY MINUTES OF AUTHORIZING UP.THAT ' S REALLY DANGEROUS. DAGEN: BRENDAN, IT'' S DAGEN McDOWELL. IS THIS RELOCATE TO AT THE VERY LEAST BEGIN BANNING TIKTOK AT THE GOVERNMENT LEVEL IS IT SIMPLY FAR TOO LATE? DUE TO THE FACT THAT TIKTOK IS SO BIG AND ALSO SO PREVALENT ON SMARTPHONES AND SO FAMOUS USAGE. SOMEONE MADE THE COMMENT TO HE ME, IT'' S NOT IMPOSSIBLE THAT TIKTOK SIMPLY CLEANED FACEBOOK OFF THE MAP IN ABOUT 5 YEAR'' S TIME. IS IT SIMPLY FAR TOO LATE? >> > > NO, I DON ' T THINK IT ' S FAR TOO LATE WHATSOEVER. AS SOON AS YOU HAVE THIS DECISION, AND AGAIN, ON TOP OF THAT YOU'' VE GOT A BIPARTISAN EXPENSE WITH CONGRESSMAN GALLAGHER AND ALSO MURPHY, DEMOCRATS EXPRESSION WE SHOULD BAN TIKTOK NATIONWIDE. IT OUGHT TO BE THE LAST NAIL IN THE CASKET FOR THE BIDEN'' S ADMINISTRATION ONGOING TREASURY SIGHT. THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION TREASURY DIVISION HAS BEEN LOOKING AT AN OUTRIGHT RESTRICTION OF TIKTOK SINCE LATE SUMMER.THEY DID A TEST BALLOON IN THE AUTUMN HAD THAT CLAIMED THEY WOULD ALLOW THEM TO REMAIN TO OPERATE WITH UNIQUE DEFENSES. EVER SINCE, POLITICIAN REPORTS THAT ARRANGEMENT HAS BEEN PUT ON TIME OUT AS THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION ITSELF IS CONCERNED REGARDING THE NATIONAL SAFETY CONCERNS OF ALLOWING THE APP TO CONTINUE TO RUN AND THEY ' RE RIGHT. MARIA: BUT BRANDON, I MEAN, ALLOW ' S FACE IT. BRENDAN, WE ALREADY DID THIS PROTECTION ASSESSMENT. JOHN RATCLIFFE WHEN HE WAS THE RESTING SUPERVISOR OF NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE TWO YEARS EARLIER DID A NATIONAL ANALYSIS OF TIKTOK AND REGARDED IT TO BE A THREAT. THAT IS WHY DONALD TRUMP AUTHORIZED 2 EXECUTIVE ORDERS TO FORCE THE SALE OF TIKTOK, PERHAPS ORACLE WAS GOING TO ACQUIRE IT, THEY HAD ALL THESE NEGOTIATIONS.WHAT DOES JOE BIDEN DO? HE WALKS INTO THE WHITE RESIDENCE AS WELL AS TURNS AROUND ALL OF TRUMP ' S EXECUTIVE ORDERS. SO WE ' RE LOSING OUR TIME FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS SPEAKING ABOUT SOMETHING THAT ' S ALREADY BEEN CONSIDERED A NATIONAL SAFETY RISK. IS THIS HEAD OF STATE COMPROMISED? WHYS IS HE SO SOFT ON CHINA? > > WELL, LOOK, YOU ' RE RIGHT, WE ARE COMPLETELY BARE TODAY. EVERY ONE OF THE INFORMATION IS> RECEDING TO CHINA, THE CONTENT IS UPCOMING IN. I BELIEVE THERE ' S A LIVE ARGUMENT WITHIN THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION. IF YOU LOOK,'THE NATIONAL PROTECTION OFFICIALS ARE SPEAKING UP, SPEAKING OUT PUBLICLY.THE CIA SUPERVISOR CLAIMS THERE ' S GENUINE CONCERNS. THE SUPERVISOR OF NATIONAL KNOWLEDGE STATED PARENTS MUST BE CONCERNED. FBI DIRECTOR, CHRIS WRAY. WE ' RE SEEING NATIONAL SAFETY AND SECURITY OFFICIALS ARE HAVING A DISPUTE WITH THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION RIGHT NOW AS WELL AS I ' M ROOTING THOSE NATIONAL SAFETY OFFICIALS TO WIN THE DISPUTE. NOBODY IN THIS MANAGEMENT SHOULD WANT TO OWN A MANAGE TIKTOK THAT LEAD TO ONGOING MALIGNED CONDUCT. WE UNDERSTAND THEY ' RE GOING TO BE IN THE SPOTLIGHT. YESTERDAY, MICHAEL McCALL AND ALSO MIKE ROGERS SENT A LETTER TO TREASURY, SAID OFFER United States YOUR PAPERS ON YOUR TESTIMONIAL OF TIKTOK. THE CONCEPT YOU REDUCE A POOR OFFER WITH TIKTOK AND ALSO SWEEP IT UNDER THE CARPET, THE LEGISLATIVE LEADERS STATED THAT ' S NOT THE CASE. MARIA: REAL QUICK, ON THE REST OF SOCIAL MEDIA, BRENDAN, BECAUSE WE ' VE GOTTEN A GREAT DEAL OF EXPOSING OF CORRUPTION IN THESE LAST FEW WEEKS. WHAT DO YOU CONSTRUCT FROM WHAT ' S GONE'ON AT TWITTER AS THE COMPANY HAS BEEN PARADING AROUND AS SOME DIGITAL SQUARE. AT THE SAME TIME, IT ' S BEEN AN ARM OF THE DEMOCRAT PARTY WITH THE REDUCTIONS OF FACT AS WELL AS BOOSTING OF EXISTS. > > YOU KNOW, THIS IS GENUINELY STUNNING. EVERY TIME I ASSUME WE HIT ROCK BOTTOM ON REVELATIONS OF CENSORSHIP> AS WELL AS SYCHRONISATION WITH POLICE TO CENSOR POLITICALLY PROTECTED SPEECH, ALL-TIME LOW DROPS OUT AS SOON AS AGAIN.EVERY WEEK THERE ' S ANOTHER PERSON FOOTWEAR THAT DROPS. WE NEED SERIOUS LIABILITY BELOW. KEVIN MCCARTHY SAID HE WILL CERTAINLY UTILIZE GAVELS TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THAT. I THINK THAT ' S GREAT. I URGE REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS TO PERFORM THAT. WE MUST ALL DEFEND TOTALLY FREE SPEECH. WHAT WE ' RE SEEING IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. IT ' S TIME FOR RESPONSIBILITY, TIME FOR PROTECT POLITICAL SPEECH WHETHER REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT. MARIA: WE WILL LEAVE IT.
