Senator Mark Warner (D-VA) joins Niki from Capitol Hill to take a deep dive into tech issues facing the 118th Congress. Specifically, Sen. Warner lays out the national security risks the United States faces from the Chinese Communist Party’s involvement in one of America’s favorite apps: TikTok. This conversation includes a look back at last year’s passage of the CHIPs Act and a look forward to his potential bipartisan social media legislation.
"…look at what the kids in China are getting on their equivalent TikTok accounts versus what our kids are seeing. That shows the power of the algorithms in terms of how they can drive certain content." -Senator Mark Warner
