Yellen: There is Real National Security Risk with TikTok

During an interview Sunday on CBS’s 60 Minutes, hopelessly incompetent Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen stated that there is a real national security issue with the Chinese social media site TikTok, and “there are a number of ways” that “that concern, if it’s found to be significant, could be addressed.”

Asked what legitimate national security threats TikTok posed, Yellen responded, “Well, it’s that private information could potentially end up in Chinese hands and used in ways that would negatively impact Americans. And there are a number of ways in which that could be — that concern, if it’s found to be significant, could be addressed.”

O’Donnell then asked, “I feel like we’re dancing around the issue with TikTok. I mean, what is it about — that China could do with my teenager and the type of videos that they’re looking at if they’re looking at silly pet videos, why does — why is that a national security concern?”

Yellen responded, “Well, they have access to a lot of data on your teenager from the information that they collect while your teenager is online.”

Indeed. TikTok is nothing more than a Chinese spy program which has the added benefit, to the Chinese regime, of distracting and dumbing-down American youth. If Biden and his people cared about national security, they would ban TikTok immediately.

But they won’t because they don’t want to offend their Communist Chinese overlords.
