Senators Grill Social Media CEOs: ‘Blood on Your Hands'; FBI Director: Chinese Hackers Targeting US

Lawmakers on Capitol Hill grilled the CEOs of five major social media companies—Meta, TikTok, Snap, Discord, and X—on how their platforms are protecting children from dangers online. The hearing, held by the Senate Judiciary Committee, got heated at times, with Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) telling the executives, “You have blood on your hands. You have a product that’s killing people.”

FBI Director Christopher Wray told a House panel that hackers linked to the Chinese communist regime are targeting critical infrastructure in the United States, preparing to cause "real-world harm" to Americans.

The House Homeland Security Committee voted overnight to approve two impeachment articles against DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, setting up a full House vote that could come as soon as next week.
