Thursday morning on FOX and Friends, Ainsley Earhardt interviewed South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem to discuss the Republican effort to drop the military COVID vaccine mandate, and her order prohibiting TikTok for government agencies and employees.
Noem explained that the numbers of military members that may face being discharged due to not getting the COVID vaccine is “alarming.” Noem noted that the country is having a “tough time” recruiting individuals to join the military, and with many retiring and others being discharged because of their refusal to get the vaccine, there is much to be concerned about for our country’s security.
Noem also discussed her ban on state agencies downloading and accessing TikTok because of how it is utilized by China and the CCP to gather information on American citizens. Noem asserted that China is not a friend of the United States and their gathering of data of Americans is dangerous.
