Guns? Healthcare? The immigration that literally gets brought up EVERYDAY…TikTok is the biggest threat?
If you’re waiting for democrats and republicans to come to consensus on those issues before they can do anything else, nothing would get done, ever. At least they’re doing ~something~
I agree with you. Our politicians ought to focus on the issues which affect ALL Americans. The point you raise is valid and requires action ASAP! I don't understand why the politicians are permitted to steer Americans' focus from the issues which greatly impact us. When they do this, they continue to earn money for themselves despite tackling the most important situations. All legislators' salaries ought to be suspended until they efficently do the work they for which they were elected to do. The American people deserve better!
The reason why Tik Tok is consider a big threat. Because it could lead to future invasions and future wars. Years from now. Would you want someone peeping around your house? Trying to see what’s inside. Probably not! it’s no different then this.
Tik Tok is a vested interest for American Politicians. I bet huge financial incentives have been offered to these crooked politicians by American Tech Companies
TikTok's only as GOOD as the programmer, or creator who BOTH created & programmed it too as well okay @trisyy404.
Why doesn't the government have the same energy all around when it comes to other social media platforms?
Because Facebook is American
I can answer that one for you. They control the other ones. Tik Tok they can’t really control and they hate that enough to bipartisanly try ban it.
Chinese Communist Party data mining, surveillance, propaganda and misinformation.
China banned all American social media platforms from their country. Why shouldn't we do the same?
Because Tik Tok is a foreign app
Why not just regulate all the social media companies?
These companies have First Amendment Free Speech rights.
We can't get national regulation on guns, education, healthcare, medicare, medicaid. The republicans would say this is too much oversight and too big government although their current move to authoritarianism would seem contrary to that argument. The argument of big government is oversimplified because to get the business of government done (especially climate change) we need to look at government differently, understand the scope of the domestic issues we have, be able to bring together geographically distant experts and pool information means we have to think about it differently. The crack that social media is and the influence of misinformation makes the debate and regulation important, but like guns, social media is a big one. And people love dangerous toys.
That exact what the Dems want to do. That’s why they were so upset with the sale of Twitter.
@@RaymondHng yeah but there is straight up prostitution and sex trafficking, having happening on Facebook and WhatsApp
@@HH-gv8mx Because Biden is taking bribes to aid sex trafficking that's why!!
TikTok is not the number one concern . The fact no one is talking about how it actually motivated young people to vote and get invested into politics
...which is what those in power hate the most.
Except tiktok is so vulnerable to Chinese influence in elections. It's a horrible national security risk.
Mike Johnson said hes a Constitutional lawyer 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 bah hahahhaha
If you really want TikTok to DIE, have Elon buy it.
that's hilarious 😂
Elon needed twitter as a platform for his neuralink project.
You’re not wrong! 🤣🤣🤣
TikTok showin too much Gaza -
mmhmm. That's why there was a right wing takeover of X, formally known as Twitter.
Ding, ding, ding!
Bingo
There's tons of Gaza of coverage on IG, so that argument doesn't really hold. This is about a foreign adversary having access to our data. Grindr was a similar story -- it was previously owned by a Chinese company but it was forced to be spun off to an American company due to concerns about data privacy.
you said it
It's OK for the corporate donors of the politicians to use our data, but not their competitors 😂.
The big money parties have spoken it’s no longer democratic or republican physical interaction that holds value to these few groups of people doesn’t matter if you have no other contributions . Than what you sample period 💇♂️
Bingo.
...not to forget that it is easy to create a completely anonymous and even misleading account on tiktactoe aka tiktok.
Nancy Pelosi really thought she was doing something with that tictactoe joke. But it was embarrassing to watch🤦♀
Truly cringe
I laughed
Why? @@JDRamos213
Nancy thought she ate that up
the Rizzler Nancy is not, I fear
Its giving “pokemon go to the polls”
She did.
real
Imagine if India said we will ban Meta unless they sell it to us. This sets terrible precedent.
It’s pry different because the USA is probably all of the social media companies biggest market, so we have the power to say we will ban it unless they sell it to us because they would lose so much money if America doesn’t get to use the app
Why ask questions if you can't listen for the answer? I'm talking to you Woopi.
Seriously, Sara answered her question multiple times and it just fell on death ears as Whoopi kept asking it over and over again.
The View hosts are so worried about national security concerns that they have an official channel on TikTok 😂 you can’t make this stuff up.
The only ‘social media’ I use is KZhead. Yes, I am aware that I am in the minority, but don’t have neither time nor inclination to partake of any of them
Amen.
Same
Same here.
And you think KZhead is free speech place 😂
Save your brain cells! 👏
First time I agree with Whoopi here. She's making good points.
Black lives matter . Then take it to their doorstep. GA .
Yep!
When both parties come together it's ALWAYS corporate related.
Patriot act passed 99 to 1
With all the things Congress could be worried about, we focus on Tiktok? Way to have our priorities together.
you say that until you realize that almost every adult in teh USA has a smartphone. some of those adults work in areas that sensitive. We can't control everyone. do we want to risk sensitive information being controlled by the chinese?
From what I’m understanding, China owns Tic Tok and could use that app to infiltrate our Presidential elections and other parts of our government endangering our nation😮
@richardh6641 do you really want that information controlled by people in the United States considering our own history of how we handle things ourselves? You want some rich white dude having his hand on that type of information?
But congress can’t agree on any of those other issues. If they all agree and have the opportunity to act, that’s literally what they’re there for. If we wait for them to agree on healthcare before we get anything else done, there would be nothing done, ever.
@samueldelgadillo6122 so let me get this straight. Congress, who are supposed to be the cream of the crop can't figure out why universal health care is good for everyone, homelessness is bad for people, inflation on food should not be there and now we should treat each other humane in prisons and when being arrested. If that is the case we have the wrong people in office with a terrible moral code. I think we could figure out someone better to give 100K a year to and better use of that money.
Hello? Your PHONES are exactly the same conduit.
OMG Joy is insanely obsessed with Trump.
I love Joy, but I agree, I’m over hearing about Trump every day almost every segment.
That's simply because that's all that she HERSELF has & she also SECRETLY wants to SLEEP with Donald Trump, but simply refuses to ever even ADMIT that to her GIRLFRIENDS too as well okay @halking7441.
Joy, does in fact have Trump derangement syndrome. 😂😂
Trying to keep him in Florida nit Washington DC
Like an obsessed ex
If it wasn’t a Chinese app this wouldn’t be up for discussion
The last time I checked, we owed China Billions of dollars in debt.
You’d be correct.
Right! So we can take their money but not their app???? Nah, they want us to not know what’s happening
That part!
What does that have to do with a private Chinese company?
@@jordyb57 it means they already own our asses. What makes this any different?
if tiktok is that dangerous… why is the president on it?
Exactly, and the view is on it too by the way
🗣️
Its not the content its whats done with personal data
@@sunseeker9581that's the excuse they just don't want us having access to see world atrocities committed by us power
Because he's an idiot and desperate for votes.
how is anyone debating this, of course they’re banning tiktok because of israel. all the talk about banning it died until the adl and aipac said it was hurting israel. don’t cede ground on this, it’s important for people who use tiktok to correlate the ban as ‘protecting israel’
Exactly !
i thought it was cause of china
I am surprised this post was not deleted yet. This is an AIPAC move, to limit American youth's exposure to an ongoing genocide.
@@kayak1m it’s both technically.
@@Paleteroboi 👍
I don’t understand whoopis point.. it feels like each day she just wants to argue the opposite of whatever the question or panel say 🤨
Actually she made a valid point. No point complaining about Tik tok if you cant even control the SM companies in America.
@@ranaabsumanthiran364 well this is America we’re talking about. They have no control over anything, the country is a mess and a joke 😂
“Crazy caucus” - I love that category for Congress.
352 lawmakers are threatened that they no longer control the narriative, that's what this is. They don't like that people are getting their information from places that they don't have 100% control of.
Let’s say I believe that Tik Tok is a problem because of all the things that were said, you’re still telling me this the problem Congress should be focusing on now? There are so many issues that Congress refuses to address or crawls in addressing but when it comes to TikTok they are putting on their energy into it. Really mind boggling.
The longer TikTok is used, the more info harvesting they're doing. And it's not just you; they're learning about your friends and relatives as well. This is a serious breach of security. They've already been reaping information for years with every Chinese product we use, such as Huawei phones.
Congress dont agree on hardly anything. Let them pass something for a change
Inflation, energy prices, groceries, gas, services completely unaffordable and people living paycheck to paycheck and are one repair bill away from bankruptcy. But let’s go full steam after TikTok.
☝🏽 But.... When Russia banned Facebook it was a problem? 😑
Because we claimed ourselves to be the "land of the free" and not be like those "authoritarian" states like Russia. Also, Russia ban Facebook because the government doesn't want their population to learn the truth, does that sound 1984 to you?
Digital fentanyl?! Ridiculous.
Disagree. You must not have a Gen Z in your household.
Disagree, I totally agree with Alyssa on this. Highly addictive to certain people, most young with mental health illness.
This is about tik tok being left leaning and anti Isreal. That's the reason AIPOC is the major backer for this bill. This utterly ridiculous. Focus on gun violence, hate crimes, domestic violence, mental health, low wages, fair housing, food deserts, Medicare for all. I am so tired of these fake moral panics when something gets a little too left, and humanitarian centered focuses on those in power.
Nonsensical comparison.
Yes digital fentanyl. Only morons would waste their time with that mindless drivel. And any smart parents would not want their kids burning brain cells on TikTok.
Homelessness should be THE issue and if all the big tech companies invested in bringing people in off the street and cleaning up our cities and towns ....invest in our peopel
Tik tok asked us to call our representatives and they freaked out.
No joke, I was literally thinking how joy is going to provide ANY contribution to this topic since Trump is not involved and…… she really deserve an award for her ability to bring him up with ANY hot topic…..
She has TDS for sure
Why are people STILL saying it will be banned???? It’s not being banned at all 🤦🏿♂️
If the government is soooo worried about our privacy why don’t they do something about robo calls? Tired of my phone ringing 20+ times everyday!!
Whoopi needs to pay a visit to China before comparing it to anything here. She has no clue.
Nah let tiktok send more push notifications to kids asking them to call politicians during elections 😂
Tik Tok is said to be China tech. But the CEO is not a China National. Not all Chinese come from China. Millions of Chinese are born in Southeast Asia, not China.
Not to that level Whoopi. But, I hate to say it but in order to manage the site the US buyer is most likely going to partner with Meta or Google.
nailed it
And they both have MAJOR privacy issues
Who did Sunny’s make up?..
The only time this many members of congress agree on anything is when it is in thier best interest, not ours.
Did you know the CCP has banned TikTok in Hong Kong?
That is not true. China ban them in China.
Exactly, because they are trying to restrict information
I don't know why people keep saying Tiktok is for kids - I see more grown people (30-70) posting videos and taking on different topics - politics, health, books, movies, etc. And so many people are using Tiktok to generate income with product sponsorships.
Yes, I’m on there and I see many folks on there promoting their business, talking/debating politics, cooking recipes, and just entertainment as well. I feel it’s more of the government trying to confirm what people can and cannot watch because folks are talking and mobilizing on TikTok to get out the vote.
Wait, it's Trumps fault? Thanks for clearing this up for me ladies!
@0:50. A perfect example of being out of touch is the response to nancy pelosis lame “tick tack toe” line- we get it, you’ve interviewed her and her daughter before, but we don’t have to pretend like that was good
The China and CCP ownership has been debunked. Jeff Yaz owned 15% and lobbying for Tic Tok.
Digital fentanyl is wild to me…. Please be for real
Well they made tik tok along with all the other platforms testifying before Congress a couple of months ago because kids are killing themselves because of content on social media. So if it’s killing children just like fentanyl and both are coming from China then it makes sense.
That is a REpublican talking point.
Star panel. 5 pros at their best. Love this show ❤
One of the Congress’s argument is that, China restricts Chinese TikTok, but doesn’t restrict TikTok for the Americans? Whoopi is the only person here appearing genuine about this issue.
This was a great conversation.
Temu is also a Chinese company. Why not force them to sale?
If you cant compete with them, ban them
Whys the view on tiktok
Good question !
Because that’s where you have to go to reach the morons who get all their news and information from TikTok. But no educated person wants their kids on TikTok. Like Sonny said it’s fentanyl for the brain.
The View is filled with a lot of propaganda.
Mike Johnson said he is a constitution attorney? That's means he knows exactly what the constitution said about people like Trump.
Nancy took me OUT 😂
Jeezus Joy…get it together…
So interesting how they will do this; however, they won't do anything about requiring social media accounts to be verified????????
Tiktok is the ONLY media source that shows what's actually going on in 🍉
How many people just click “Agree” when presented with the term of service, rather than actually reading it? TikTok is not to blame.
Mike Johnson standing up for National Security…that’s a first!!
I’m glad i never had tt, insta, fb, twit.
She thought she ate lol 😂😂🤣
Isn't it true that the demand is for China to sell Tik Tok to an American company...not to shut it down.
It is now a Singapore company. The owners moved to Singapore. The bill is no longer relevant.
I would argue that twitter or X, is MUCH more poisonous than TikTok. But the Government won’t ban that. So to me this argument isn’t about morality it’s really just only about ownership.
You see more Gaza post on Tiktok. Israel called Tiktok antiemetic. The bill came after ADL lobbying Tiktok. Coincident?
There's zero reason to continue access to an application. Dump tic tok already. It's dangerous and the kids will get over it. Let some American kid invent a new app.
It isn't just for kids you dope. This is just censorship by another name.
Agree with the general flow of the conversation but are there much bigger issues??😢
Whoopie there IS a considerable difference here!
You go and hand your details over the to the Chinese Whoop seeing as your so comfortable with it. Sara is bang on here
And for all those saying we should be focusing on this or that is the reason why nothing passes … everyone thinks they should focus on their own priority thing whether it be immigration or jobs or healthcare etc .. let’s applaud the one thing congress has been able to pass
Life will be better without instagram, TikTok and facebook!!!
Let me keep my instagram, dammit! 😂
@@mykoniichistorychannel Gurl Bye
Haven't used any of them in 6 months and don't miss it at all. I have no reason to go back either.
I wish someone would of told Whoopie it’s easier to fight the battle on ur own Turf than on someone’s else’s
Alyssa bring up the Osama letter was a major red flag for me in terms of free speech. Just because you don't like the conversations going in there is not a reason to ban it, Why else don't you like being discussed on there - Gaza, the war on drugs etc? Whoopi actually made really good points about the sale changing nothing in terms of the social media landscape and privacy laws being virtually non-existent in the US based on international norms e.g. the EU.
The grandmother in red 🤦🏻
Joy will put Donald Trump into every topic
Facts
A wise person once said .. US is like Tonya Harding.
Them old fools can agree on banning fun but not fixing to bring up wages, lower rent... ANYTHING ELSE
You can make money on banning/ I wonder how much meta stock did Pelosi buy?
Aunties trying to speak tech
Exactly, cringy AF
I feel like I’m the only one in my age group who has never been on TikTok or Twitter or Instagram. And I’m actually proud of that. Facebook is enough of a time waster for me. If I need to mindlessly scroll or wish somebody a happy birthday I still have my Facebook account, but I have no need for more mindless drivel in my day.
Can you imagine telling someone to sell their company bc you doing the same thing y’all doing ….
It’s the same with any American social media app in every other country
Joyless Joy at it again. Read the darn bill!
Love our fierce leader Pelosi 🙌🏼🇺🇸
If only they had young people telling them the honest truth about this ban
7 million small U.S. businesses are on tiktok - which leads to an overall additional benefit of over $24 billion for the USA.
Of course Joy pivoted to Trump. Just shut up and stick to the topic for once.
The House on Wednesday passed a bill that would lead to a nationwide ban of the popular video app TikTok if its China-based owner doesn’t sell its stake, as lawmakers acted on concerns that the company’s current ownership structure is a national security threat. The bill, passed by a vote of 352-65, now goes to the Senate, where its prospects are unclear. TikTok, which has more than 170 million American users, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Chinese technology firm ByteDance Ltd. The lawmakers contend that ByteDance is beholden to the Chinese government, which could demand access to the data of TikTok’s consumers in the U.S. whenever it wants. The worry stems from a set of Chinese national security laws that compel organizations to assist with intelligence gathering.
Americans own 52% of Byte Dance. Investor include Walmart and Oracle. Club for Growth is now lobbying for Tic Tok not for love of China but for their own money. The China own thing argument is gone. Now it is the China control argument. In the mean time I can get all your finance info family detail all for a buck. This is about money.
But, Trump’s changed his mind about TikTok and we now know Steve Mnuchin is lining up investors to purchase it!
My god joy has a major issue where she can’t go a day without mentioning trump
The “oh she’s good” comment at that weird tic tac toe attempt at a joke was ultimate cringe 🤮
0:01 ❌BAN TICK TOCK, NO SELL, NO SALE👏🏻 ALL OR NOTHING IF IT'S ABOUT "SECURITY" THEN TAKE THE PROFITEERING OUT OF IT💸💸💸
These ladies have NO IDEA WHAT they’re talking about 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️ bring people who knows how this works and NOT a sell out politician
Sarah and Alyssa have no idea what they're talking about here. TikTok is an app. It is not the hardware. Theres only so much an app has access to do. And everything TikTok captures, the equivalent US companies capture and more.
lol. Allyssa did not mention any of the 50 Democrats, one an advisor on National Security, that voted against it
5:02 This is biggest frustration about daily living in the US. I feel blessed that we have all the liberties and opportunities, of course. But whenever there’s a national issue of some sort, it always goes back to lack of self-accountability and morals people have because they’re obsessed with the idea of “ME FIRST” or “I’M BETTER” or “I’M RIGHT”
We are also losing the Affordable Connectivity Program. This program helps needy families, and those that are disabled, have reduced web access, and we will lose it the end of April. Congress did not feel the need to help 90 million people who use the program across the country.😢😢😢
How about banning Trump’s app most probably is worst than Tik Tok.
It’s American owned, so there’s that caveat.
Good Show.
It’s all control
The reason they want China 🇨🇳 to give up tiktok is to give some YT the capital on the app and corner the market.
Meta
There is not one ounce of proof any of this is true. They have continuously asked to show one piece of proof they’re doing this and they haven’t.
