Description

TikTok is lawyering up. The embattled social media app has 150 million users in the US, but dancing teenagers don’t have the kind of pull that TikTok needs. So, they are spending millions on the most connected Washington lobbyists they can get, high-priced, “well placed names” who can speak to Republicans or Democrats.

On the most recent episode of The Drill Down with Peter Schweizer, Peter and co-host Eric Eggers detail the impressive lineup of former politicians and staffers from previous White House administrations who are making money defending what some critics and computer security professionals call “Chinese spyware.”
