With every lip sync video, american users are unknowingly contributing to a vast surveillance apparatus. I do think we should protect National Security. This is not the right way. The very much about the ccp and their ability to own data and use that data nefariously against our National Security interests. Theres serious National Security concerns. I think the way the bill is crafted was problematic. So many Small Businesses on here. People are surviving off of this app. Theres no doubt theyre collecting our data through tik tok. I feel like its not deep enough to where it should be banned. Ban tik tok and youre banning Financial Security from others. Theres no concerns of the app continuing as long as tik tok makes the choice to break up with the Chinese Communist party. Neil tick rocked. Happened today in the House Of Representatives by an overwhelming vote. The move right now the usa to say go away to this chineserun social media phenomenon. Young people by and large dont like what theyre hearing and seeing and potentially witnessing. Well talk to a governor who got rid of it in his state, or is trying to. Meantime, the latest from Aishah Hasnie on capitol hill with what hans news. Aishah . This bill is now headed to the senate. The path there is pretty unclear right now. The majority leader, Chuck Schumer is noncommittal and will only say that the economities will take a look at this bill text. Despite the fact that this has gotten the endorsement from the intel chair, the intel vice chair, a majority of House Democrats, almost 200 House Democrats including the majority leader including Minority Leader in the house voted for this. The white house is also endorsing this bill. Listen. Were going to support it in a technical way obviously. Look, we want to make shoe that this bill ensures the threats that we face and is on the strongest possible legal footing. Thats very important. So im not going to get ahead of any of those discussions from here. We want to see the senate take swift action. Tik tok is trying to influence the senate though. Theyre going to try to kill the bill in the senate putting out a statement saying the process was secret and the bill was jammed through for one reason. Its a ban. Were hopeful the senate will consider the facts. Now fox has told that ceo show chu has is supposed to be visits senate offices. Nobody has seen him on the capitol grounds, neil. This as some of the no votes in the house are trying to explain why their Senate Colleagues should kill this. What would you recommend to republicans, senators . Again, i look at the constitution. What is the role of the government here, this is not our job to do this. I think there should be a broader conversation about the role of tech and consumer data. It has to be applied across the board here to every tech company. Neil, as of right now, it is highly doubtful the senate takes this up for a vote this week. Neil . Neil got it, aishah. Thanks. Montana governor Greg Gianforte is the first to do this in his state, ban tik tok in his state. He still is having a devil of a time trying to get that through and make it happen in his state. When i spoke with him earlier today, he said that is the goal and we should do it nationwide. Take a look. Chinese communist party has used these platforms to spy on americans. China is not our friend. I applaud the house for taking the bipartisan action that they did today. Neil this could endanger other social sites and an avalanche going after social media. What do you think of that argument . Well, i think this action is restricted to foreign adversaries. We dont want them to have inroads on our mobile devices to spy on americans. Thats simple. Divest it, continue to use tik tok. This is a multifaceted approach. Neil all right. Before there was montana governor gianforte, there was the former number number governor, Pete Ricketts that banned it. Senator, very good to have you. Thanks for having me on. Yes, i was the first governor to ban tik tok on our State Devices. That is still in place. Neil all right. How did that work at the time . Again, you focussed on State Devices or anyone that worked for the government or the state, if they had such devices or anything like that and this was on it, it would soon be off it. How did you get it off it . Required us to go out and not only pushing the policy, but to actually police it with our state teammates. So it didnt happen overnight. We did have to push it. It was completely within my powers to say to our folks in state government, were not going to allow the Chinese Communist party to spy on it. Good National Reasons for it. We had good compliance for it. Neil i dont know at this point whether the senate will take up this matter. Given the lopsided nature of this vote in the house and overwhelmingly bipartisan, is the pressure on Chuck Schumer to make this happen . It should be. This is important. If youre going to own a tv or radio station, we make you say youre a citizen, you know, a u. S. Citizen and youre not a fe felon. Were talking about adversaries of the united states. Theyre not u. S. Citizens and the communists are felons, this is a terrible system working against us. This is something that we ought to do. The president should come out and not just say he signs the bill but should call Chuck Schumer and say put this up as quickly as possible. Its not a ban. Its requiring the Chinese Communist party to divest this in to an american ownership so that we dont have our adversaries spying on us. We would never allow the u. S. Government to collect this much money. Why are we allowing the chinese to collect this much information . Neil im glad you clarified what this bill does. Its asking byte dance, the Chinese Parent Company to divest itself of tik tok. I was thinking, senator, even if we got such assurances that byte dance did this, said goodbye, tik tok, youre not part of us, how do we know that byte dance has kept to that and theyre still not spy something. One of the things we know about the Chinese Communist party, theyre willing to lie. So just like i had to do, we had the policy, we have to police. We have to police this as well. Set up systems to make sure that bias dance has divested, not continuing to provide the information to the Chinese Communist party. Thats going to be true for anybody that falls understood this law. Neil theres a lot of young people, i have two sons that are of the age to vote. Theyre not happy with this move to get rid of tik tok. They think everyone spies on them. Maybe theyre cynical. They get that from their money. The point is they dont like it. They dont like the notion of the government moving to take something away from them. How do you address that part of the population . Well, again, this is note a ban of tik tok. Byte dance sells it to somebody else and they will continue to operate it. Im sure they will continue to operate the same way they did before so it can be successful. I dont expect young people to have lost anything here. What we will have stopped is the Chinese Communist party from pushing their propaganda on to our people. We wouldnt allow our government to do it. I dont know why we allow the Chinese Communist party to do it. Neil so you have no problem they will turn around, the young people and say theyre so cynical about this. Everyone spies on them. Everyone is looking at every stroke i mike. But this is china here. The kid dont care. They have got ten to the age that privacy is not a paramount concern because its compromised every day with u. S. Companies let alone those abroad. What do you say . Again, i certainly recognize that young people have a different level with regard to how theyre comfortable with their private cease. This is a National Security is issue. When the chair says its a good, its bipartisan, the house showed you its bipartisan. Folks here in d. C. Recognize this is a National Security issue. We want to make sure were protecting our citizens. Thats what were sent to do. This is a bay to do it. The Chinese Communist party is not our friend. Theyre a danger to us. The largest existential threat outside this country to us. We have to stop them from taking advantage of our open system and this is one of the ways to do it. Neil thank you, senator. Very good seeing you. Thanks, neil. Neil well be talking about the National Security implications with this with mark warner tomorrow on this very show. His thoughts on exactly how we progress here and move beyond this here. Meantime, you probably heard that we have already had our rematch set, the exact same contest it was four years ago. The last time we saw this was back in 1956. Then the incumbent president in that battle won. What happens now . Whenever heartburn strikes. Get fast relief with tums. Its time to love food back. Also available tums sleep support. Fisher Investments its easy to think that all Money Managers are pretty much the same, but at Fisher Investments were clearly different. other Money Manager different how . You sell High Commission investment products, right . Fisher Investments nope. Fisher avoids them. other Money Manager well, you must earn commissions on trades. Fisher Investments never at Fisher Investments. other Money Manager ok, then you probably sneak in some hidden and layered fees. Fisher Investments no. We structure our fees so we do better when clients do better. That might be why most of our clients come from other Money Managers. At Fisher Investments, were clearly different. Switch to shopify so you can build it better, scale it faster and sell more. Much more. Take your business to the next stage when you switch to shopify. Anthony this making you uncomfortable . Good. When youve got Type 2 Diabetes like me, you have up to 4 times greater risk of stroke, heart attack or worse death. Even when meeting your a1c goal. Discomfort can help you act. Im not trying to scare you. Im empowering you. To get real with your health care provider. Talk to them about lowering your risk of stroke, heart attack or death. Neil was this like the quickest president ial Election Year from the start in iowa . All of the contests leading up to that and the drama, its over. Its finished. We know its a rematch of four years ago. But getting to this point startling. Lets take a look. Bursting at the seams slate of republican president ial candidates that is getting darn close to rivalling the size of the 2016 field. America can do for anyone what shes done for me. I love rocky 3. All right. I pity the fool that thinks otherwise. I pity the feel. Thats a Heartbeat Awhy from the presidency. Are you saying you would turn it down if offered . I am. Ive had enough already tonight of a guy who sounds like chat gpt. You claim that donald trump is motivated by vengeance and grievance would be more credible if your entire cam pain were not based on vengeance and grievance against one man. You regret that donald trump wasnt there . Hes giving joe biden every excuse to not show up for debates in november. Neil here we are in iowa. I have to tell you its cold here. In the history of them doing these caucuses, its never been colder. Its the first step. Were going to do it. You cant sit home. Iowans love donald trump. So id man he will do fine here. How do you feel . Were so excited. You think we have to be today . No. Im not worried. I think i know who you look. Yes. Why nicki . I feel like her message is more positive. I love her energy. I believe shes a natural leader. If people are willing to come out and hear from me, im going to show up all the way until the end of this caucus. Were facing challenging circumstances. You have to play the hand your dealt and do what you can do to amass support. Many say youre a young man. You could wait it out, wait until 28. What do you think . Retrospect. I didnt run to be somebody. I ran to do something. 2024 is a time for choosing for this country. Neil the one thing you diggs covered about New Hampshire voters, they dont want polls to tell them what to do. You want to see a republican. Theres nobody way id vote for anybody but trump. To endorse the next president , donald trump. Neil were you surprised, disappointed . South carolina is a blood sport. I have get with the old guy as long time. Neil its not to say that democrats arent running in their own primary. Heres the thing. President joe biden isnt even on the ballot. You have to write him in. Why isnt he on the ballot . Hes not on the ballot because of a change in the calendar that does not recognize the results of the New Hampshire primary. We dont care what the dnc session. Were here to support joe biden and going to write his name in. Its outrageous. The idea that the dnc feels entitled to anoint the president. He wouldnt be the first to try that. What do you think of that . You are pushed to the side. What i think, well see tuesday what the voters of New Hampshire have to say. Lets shock the world tomorrow night. Williams and murphy are saying the party couldnt ostracize her enough. Its an apparatus built around the king. Our country was established to prevent the very coronation that were seeing expressed right now. The time has now come to suspend my campaign. Youre going to win this primary for us on tuesday and because were going to win in november. This one got us over the top. The Republican National committee has just declared us the official nominee. Neil hard to believe. A lot of you saying you sped that up. No, the Actual Campaign season lasted about 3 1 2 minutes like that. It was that fast. That quick. Id the remiss if i left out what robert f. Kennedy jr. Did as an independent candidate. Hes gathering steam and talking about taking on the two heavyweights, joe biden and donald trump. Even know outlining some of the Running Mates hes considering. He will make a decision in a couple months. Aaron rodgers and Jesse Venturery are rumored to be on the ticket. Those are some interesting picks. What do you think . Im a jets fan. So im hoping that rodgers is the quarterback for the jets, not in the white house. Listen, i think r. F. K. Jr. Has appealed to independents. Hes done quite well. If he can get enough ballots, i think he can get the 15 threshold. Hes the one to watch. He cannot win, but tilt it in One Direction or the other. Which way remains to be seen. Neil its not a given that well have debates in the first place. The last time we didnt have president ial debates was with Richard Nixon in 1972. He passed on that opportunity as he did four years earlier. Didnt seem to hurt him. He got reelected regardless and got elected first. What do you make of the importance of debates and who it helps or hurts . Well, certainly in debates in politics, the person who is losing the race wants a lot of debates. Trump has said hes willing to debate biden anyplace anywhere but he doesnt like the president ial commission on debates. Has to be a third party that sets these things up. So i think well probably have a debate. Its probably part of our culture now. Will we have four of them, three president ial and one Vice President . Probably not. Neil Robert Kennedy did address this. Hes itching to get involved. I want you to react to this. What do you think i think that if we should come out in public but more importantly, to have unscripted debates, unscripted encounters with voters to engage in the debate, which americans expect from a president ial candidate. Neil looks like those two guys are not keen on debating each other. Might happen. Doesnt look like it will. What do you think of that . Well, i think were living in a time when the two least popular mainstream candidates in the history of our country are running, both of them would win the prize for the least popular candidate in the history of a Major Political party. Would hope that both candidates will debate and we should Start Talking about the issues that concern americans. Neil i dont know if there will be debates. Its very hard to get a third candidate in there. Ross perot was in it with george h. W. Bush when he was going against bill clinton. The debate that rages today that he took from one. Others say it was equally taking from both. Bobby kennedy, how would that be seen . If he makes to it the debate stage, how do you think he affects the stage and the raice . It would make it more interesting. Who knows if no labels has a candidate and its a four way. You have to qualify.
