The argument suggests that if data security were the sole concern, Congress would not have exempted other major Chinese-controlled platforms.

Allegations suggest that Democratic operatives used this information to contact specific voters and have them submit provisional ballots to "cure" their votes.

The hosts argue that this framing is a form of media programming designed to diminish the importance of the 10th Amendment. They contend that the federal government's involvement in marriage definitions is a secondary issue to the constitutional authority of individual states.
