HH: So pleased to welcome back to the Hugh Hewitt Show Undersecretary of State Keith Krach. He is the man in charge of our technology and the revolution that State is overseeing in creating a clean network. We’ve got lots to talk about. Good morning, Mr. Undersecretary. Great to have you on the show.
KK: Hugh, it’s so great to be back. Thank you so much, my friend.
HH: I want to begin with a subject I discussed earlier today with Chuck Todd and others before we move to the clean network. Yesterday, the FTC brought an enforcement action along with 48 attorneys general against Facebook. I am not a fan of this. I think it’s wholly misplaced, driven by plaintiff’s lawyers, and I think it takes our eye off the ball, which is Chinese Communist infiltration of our networks while striking at the heart of American industrial and technological might. Do you have an opinion on this?
