Bream opened the segment quoting Warner, “As painful as it is for me to say, if Donald Trump was right and we could’ve taken action then, that’d have been a heck of a lot easier than trying to take action in November of 2022.”
Bream then asks if Washington simply did not listen because of their distance for the messenger. Warner answers with, “I think Donald Trump was right. TikTok is an enormous threat.” Warner continues on calling TikTok a threat on two levels. It collects hoards of information, he mentions American children and describes that they are able to gather the keystrokes. He tells parents of TikTok users they should be concerned, all of the data is being stored somewhere in Bejing. Currently, the Justice Department is trying to work on a solution to this.
Warner then moves on to the second problem. “TikTok in a sense is a broadcasting network” that is a part of the Chinese communist party and they will be able to control what content is promoted, such as content that promotes Taiwan as really a part of China. Which would pale in comparison to Russian propaganda according to the senator.
In 2020 former President Donald Trump announced publicly he was considering banning the platform, it was even proposed that an American company purchase TikTok however that never manifested. TikTok wasn’t banned and two years later it seems Congress is now taking this security threat seriously.
It remains to be seen what action will be taken by Congress and the Justice Department, but Warner’s statement says it all, it would have been a “heck of a lot easier” if they had only taken […]
Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
