Everyone, i am laura ingraham, and this is the The Ingraham Angle from washington tonight. China and the fanatics, this is the angle tonight. I wonder whaabt thoue leaders oe Chinese Party think about the theopagebate in United States . After brilliantly deploying propaganda and spying operation inside the u. S. , they must be pleasantly surprised to see bipartisan support to help them protect it. Yes, justrm, like averyst social media platform there isie Privacy Concerns and it is goi important we dont treat tiktok different than other platforms. If we address this issue, we have to take the same approach o see some Media Platforms. We cant just go out one periods be when we most certainly can and should. I when our National Security and t our Election Integrity is at stake, we must act to protect our country. Ensi for decades we are trying to c hiprevent this transfer of technology to our adversaries in china, iran, north korea, russia, so on. It is so bad with china that all g7 Foreign Ministers pledgedc actions to counter chinas use of economic coercion to extract sensitive Technologyes Tseo Gros own military, essentially what happens is china says, if you want access to our capital markets, you want to give access to our data. Ance with with tiktok owned by the ccp bytedance, they dont even d have to ask, they just take peer the house bill that passed toda, by a vote 35265, wow, it will force tiktok to Divest Itselfas for alonl the obvious reasons. Pro to get a Congressman Knowini that they are effectively helping the ccp ignore the truth that its not even a ban. I dont like vans on speech, look, i dont like the republican book bands come i bod dont like the bams that theyve t on bodies. Laura bans. The bill was jammed through foe ser one reason, it is a ban. We are hopeful the senate will consider the facts, listen to constituents and realize the impact on the economy,serv 170 million americans who use our services. As if china that unleashed the covid virus on the United States and persecutes its Discontents G Americant helpin Small Businesses, give me a break and im wearing red tonight. All bytedance needs to do is fend off tiktok, but it refuses. Why . We know why. Ican of course, china doesnt allow the american version of tiktok to operate over there. What would happen if a u. S. Affiliated company tried to set up a prou. S. Propaganda stream in china . Pr pray tell. It would be a violation of the First Amendment. Lets not violate the First Amendment but it focusesco on conduct, not content. Rsar it requires being controlled by an adversary and conduct that itself is espionage. We have taken it to the carrier level, china mobile, Chinaed B Telecom connect into our networks. Tion they are controlled by the ccpak and National Security threat. We now need to take action at the Application Level when malign ccp control has been demonstrated less we render meaningless past actions to her protect the United States of america. Laura hear, hear was, i was standing up and cheering him at that here the arguments against it got more, lets say, creative, i would say, as the Health Debate were on. If we wanted to be serious about stopping china, we would stop from buying u. S. Farmland. And we would raise up our American Energy independent. If we cared about americans data, we would stop the sale of americans data. Not just china. Laura farmland . I could lose a thought, god bless her. S white is that it so hard for some to grasp china is a unique threat to the United States . Because we dont stop all commerce with china and we dont do this . We had millions of Kids Congress and some threatening suicide and in other case person aiding a congressman son . This is a previeo usw of what cn happen if Thsse Filmic Ccp Wantd to prevent congress from actingo they on a debate over chiauthorizing force to defend taiwan o r removing chinas permanent relations status. Of the propaganda is too immense tn allow one of our former adversaries to have this controe over what is increasingly becoming the dominant news platform. Form laura bingo, i wish youreti werent retiring. Meanwhile the Biden Campaign is putting out tiktok videos makinp fun of speaker johnson. And distinct indistinct. Laura tiktok is making interesting bedfellows along the way. For the first time perhaps everd the squad is on the same side as donald trump who himself islo skeptical of at congressional action. There were a lot of people in tiktok that live it. There are a young kids on tiktoi who will gtho crazy without it. B without tiktok, you can make facebook bigger. I consider facebook to be ang enemy of the people. Pre laura i understand whatha hes saying, but does President Trump really think that tiktok in the end is going to be fair to him . That china wants trump back in the white house . Well, wild if so, but it is really beside the point. It is a nationalook, security imperative. But look when you become o addicted to something of addicted to tiktok, that is the last thing on your mind, like duh i dont buy into the whole conspiracy thing like we are being spied on. A lot of conservatives are concerned about free speech, and now there is this major channelt that allows people to express t themselves freely at they wantco to take it away. In do you think the Chinese Communist partys party is fighting through it . Nt i dont think so. If i dont think they are. I would hope not. Ont i dont know how much valuable i information they will get from it. Rity i dont know how much of a Security Threat it is because tiktok users will be like my demographic, just going on and having fun and [bleep] laura and [bleep] , the app works perfectly. You almost cant blame the kids, right . Critical thinking has taken a hit overtime. And celebrities love it, they are kind of fun, biden uses it it is fun to laugh at. Trump is defending it. The fact that tiktok is fun t overrides everything else. I used tiktok like all day, al l the time. I am addicted to tiktok. I feel like when im not using it, im talking about what i saw on tiktok. But i really like it for it is funny and it is good to too fa discover new songs and use it. S i am big into fashion and tiktok, like i get so many different ideas and i like posting my outfits. In other peoples outfits. So i love tiktok. Laura well, enough said to come at the ccp knew exactly what it was doing when its Tecr Brainiacs Set Up and planted ite United States. The cooking videos, celebrity gossips, health tips, Comedy Sketches are a genius wa. Y to draw u s all in. But that is not what china cares about. They want their system to dominate ours. And this is one key weapon inft the information Warswa Deployede through Software Tweaking whenever they see fit. That is the algorithm. This is wife chinas bytedancee is spending so heavy onent lobbying. Check out the most recent data we could find from opensecrets. Org. Ion bytedance spent a stunning 17. 7 million on lobbying. Lord knows so much they spent this year, but they have hired some familiar faces to stop this tiktok bill from passing the senate. So will Senate Republicans go the way of swell well, ilhan omar and the ccp . Or will they vote for what is pragmatic here, to keep the app as long as it cuts the pipeline back to the ccp . Mmon seems common sense to me. And that is the angle. Joining me now fcc commissionerg Brendan Clark who Fo Ar Years Hs been warning about the dangers of tiktok. E aim at the tak theory that this applies to all social Media Platforms, explained the spirits becauseha there is a lot of concern on th right when congress does some things these days because we hae been living that so long. My job Aen Ts A Republican On Tb fcc is to sound the alarm on anything that could be used for weaponization, not only doesth this bill not give that authority to the president medicinal rely on that alone but five layers of constraints put in here. Her one commit cannot be used against any individual, two it only applies to entities thatig are controlled by a foreign adversary government come up which is just china, russia, iran, and north korea periods three commits not only controlled by a foreign entityan but finding of National Security and additional process beyond that and the remedy is not a unilateral band but i do billinvestment. So this is a very targeted bill, smart legislation. Laura its not like you can just talk to we will censor conservative peer that is not how the system was ever set up, but you understand why conservatives think wait a second, especially after what wahe ls done to donald trump ine last election. Apwe saw theon weaponization of social Media Platforms and iocia would say the collusion of some of the Social Media Ceos against republicans in general. So i get it. Ave youre absolutely right. There is a lot of work we still have to do with big tech. Esid we need to reform section 230 which President Trump has called for and prevent discrimination against conservatives. But you cant do that with a entity beholden to the ccp. Go estiktok said to us no user datl goes back to china. Chi turns out, this material shows everything is seen in china. In they told us dont worry, we are not spying on americans. They now admitted, yes, theyn were spying on americans. They then told us three, dont worry you caught us. We will get better and wellingil china off from the data and thau waras a lie, china had access tn the data. T laura and the ccped responding to what went downti today. This legislation if signed into law will lead to a ban to tiktok in the United States. And they admit this is the goal. This bill gives more power to as handful of other social mediat f companies and will also takel bu billions of dollars out of the pockets of creators and Small Businesses. It will put more than 300,000 american jobs at risk and it will take away your tiktok. L we know how important tiktok is to all of you. Laura is ik t just me or aru the Creepy Tiktok at its getting to you . Th im sorry, that weird thing they do. It all feels like we are in a Hostage Video with them. But look, hes really slick. He he withstood the Slings And Arrows on capitol hill. He is programmed and right out k of central casting. Right today was a dated tiktok spent millions of dollars. Laura how much are they spending . That is the most recent data is last years. They paid many, many lobbyists to avoid today which is overwhelming inc. Bipartisan vote in favor wha laura how does the senate noow it affirm what the house ie done here . I know a different role than ths house, i get it, the passion con coolers saucers. But we have so little effect Congress Agrees on, this is nott a plan. How do people not see this at this point . I think it is good, Senator Schumer and senator cotton wrote the samee liver 2019 raising concerns wite tiktok and the odds are good in the senate. The democrats anatsd republicai the senate are speaking in favor of the house bill and this is goods to see. S th laura this is fantasticete news and i was on this with mike pompeo to say on the show, delete the app from your phone but not just tikto. K but maybe throw your phone away. Commissioner carr, good to see you. Crying wolf over in the fcc. Last week i made a prediction about joe biden and guess what quest market just came true. I will explain it next. Stay there. G. My name is oluseyi and some of my favorite moments throughout my life are watching sports with my dad. Now, i work at comcast as part of the team that created our ai highlights technology, which uses ai to detect the major plays in a sports game. Giving millions of fans, like my dad and me, new ways of catching up on their favorite sport. Spray went they gave jailer rave reviews. They say on steroids, biden goes for the jugular. He ha td phrase years left hook. I t i thought he was fabulous. The president headed out of the park. He was brilliant. The issue with fitness last night with joe biden getting put to rest. Laura tell us, mitch. Not only did biden get po State Of The Union bump, 538, 7. 4 , the lowest point of his entire d hapresidency and in the approl column. If only someone could haves ou predicted this. We will see soon when real polling comes out but inch h the long term, i dont think the speech helped him at all. Joining me now Mollie Hemingway editor of chief and chiefcorr political War Correspondent for The Fox Examiner and fox news contributors. Who though at sending biden out there to get would be a good strategy but then again nobodyel has ever fired in g administration. No one was held Responsibleg Thbut praising that speech, that is what everybody was doing, in other media. It didnt take excellent punditry to see this was unbelievably bad State Of The Union speech. One of the worst that anyone had ever seen, so divisive, so angry, so mean towards people. If you were going to have e toto have a difficult job, they did have to have him out there andut perform for a while even if an eloquent speech to talk and hopeful ways, that would have helped him more than this speecd he gave. Re laura they want to double down on failure. They refused to change policies. Mollie and i have talked about thisy re so many times. So instead, they replace that with anger and divisiveness and a sense of resentment ranjust through that speech, which i think that just doesnt go overh well with people they feel theyn have been hammered over the last three years. Giv there were republicans in the room thas t night saying we wish the white house, something, stand up and agree and it looks like everybody is bipartisan and everything and biden didnt dori absolutely anything. But i do think the bigger explanation for his demeanor, they believed by yelling he would seem younger. He wouldnt seem quite as old. And it didnt work. And what you pointed out is, absolutely correct. When a speech like this happens, not that many people watched in terms of 337 million americans. Laura a small number. It takes a week to read about it, talk about it and now youlle see it didnt do any good. Laura mollie, a trusted source told me what Despiteha Kedecent Movement at the rnc ana staff shakeup over there, there is still not really much in theg way of preparation to getetur mailin ballots returned, registering people to vote, and overall legal strategy for, youg know come election time, given what may happen. These are different things. Legal strategy is different than the male in valid strategy and all of it can be done through the rnc. But if people are waiting on thg rnc, now is way too late. Laura whergoe is iodt being down . Idspeak with the democrats haveh done a good job of outside grou. Republicansing re doing . He outside groups are working on it but they should be doing much more. Any time you had a Primary Election or midterm election, they should be testing what works best in terms of mailin ballots harvested. How did they get people on the permanent Absentee ListInnumb Pennsylvania or other places where you need to get the numbers to be able to narrow the gap between what democrats have done forge decades and securingi some of these voters and getting them brought into the mail and pallet process versus whatskep republicans. Laura i know President Trump a lot of skepticism about mailin ballots bu ft they are here to stay and democrat run jurisdictions, they are the facts so to win in those jurisdictions, you have to be in places people cant get to the, polls perhaps, rest homes from other areas, and democrats will make sure every person in an, Retirement Home is voting democrat, every single person. The model has to be if it is legal, do it. I think the president , President Trump actually did to2 good of a job back in 2020 election and thin 2022 election and emphasizing election daynow. Voting. Laura bank the votes, you20 have to bank the votes early. Ta what happened in the 2020 election, trump was talking about Big Wave Obankn election t o Democrats BankMilli Millionss every single day up to the election. Laura mollie i f we look at pthe polling from these key states m, trump is up four poins in mic
