Dem Sen. Warner: I’m Far More Worried about Musk, TikTok’s China Ties than Whether Trump’s on Twitter
Breitbart ^ | 11/30/2022 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 12/01/2022 12:01:19 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

On Wednesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “America Reports,” Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) said he isn’t that concerned about what Elon Musk does with former President Donald Trump’s Twitter account, but is worried about TikTok’s and Musk’s ties to China.

Warner stated, “What I am interested in, and it’s why I’ve called out and am very concerned about what’s happening with TikTok and its parent company, ByteDance, the amount of propaganda and the amount of information it’s sucking from young Americans, I’ve been working with my friend Marco Rubio (R-FL) on that. What I’ve been pointing out for some time, [is] that if you look at Mr. Musk, and I have great respect for his entrepreneurship, we do a lot of business with SpaceX, the United States government, what I’m concerned with is that, Mr. Musk — and if you go back to his comments over the last couple of years — has been totally complimentary of the Communist Party, totally complimentary of the Chinese regulators, basically kind of stuck it to any kind of American regulator, he’s got that right. But what I’m concerned about, and I would hope you would be as well, if he is so dependent upon the Communist Party — and I’m not as concerned about what he does or doesn’t do with Donald Trump on Twitter — I’m concerned if, suddenly, the Communist Party says, we don’t want Twitter traffic that defames Xi Jinping or doesn’t say good things about the Communist Party.”

Just wondering if this MF’er put out anything about Apple shutting off private comms in China as protests were kicking off over Covid lockdowns. What a POS

Is he equally worried about Biden's ties to China? How about Tim Cook?

So he’s worried about Musk because the democrats will no longer be able to spread their lying propaganda with wild abandon and shut down any dissent? People will actually be able to fact check and expose the truth about them. That really scares the hell out of asswipe democrats like Warner.

LOL, OMG. "Musk's ties to China!" Half the crooks in the Senate and House have ties to China. Hunter and Joe Biden drip Chinese Red. GM, Ford, Fiat/Chrysler all have ties to China. The Turtle 's eyes are even starting to look like slanty rice eyes.

Saw an article on FR yesterday that said the Deep State is now giving Elon Musk the President Trump treatment—working overtime to vilify Elon as a non-person, an Untermensch.

I knew his warnings to us “reglar ‘mericans) about how tik tok was gathering our data didn’t sound right coming from a Dem. Now I see the setup for what it is. Little upset with myself that I didn’t see it coming.

Some things are not supposed looked at. One of these forbidden topics is the very revealing and even brazen interlock between the Biden Crime Family and the highest levels of the CCP and Chairman Xi himself.

“Move along, folks, nothing to see here.” The United States is a virtual vassal of the Chinese hegemony, no matter the tough talk about defending the Philippines or Taiwan. If Japan is not ready to step into the breach, then there shall be nobody to take up the slack left by Biden’s abandonment of the South China Sea.

Oh now they are concerned about tik tok. Not when Trump was trying to ban it.

Looks like Sen. Mark Warner is running for President against Joe Biden. This comment has that ‘focus group tested’ feel to it.

Instead of worrying about Musk, worry about the mess his Party has created at the Southern border. Worry about that!

You would think he would be worried about Swallow-well, a fellow Libtard on the House Intelligence Committee and his escapades with the Chinese spy Fang (I Love You Long Time) Fang.

Yep. Still there on that committee. Amazing.

It now going to be “Musk: China, China, China!”

Instead of “Trump: Russia, Russia, Russia!”

Watch it happen.

Yes, he is. He’s the one who kept pushing the Russia, Russia, Russia stuff while he knew full well it was fake. He’s my Senator and I’ve had dealings with him. Total pig.
