1:24 am
operations until analyst brett velicovich joins us live. why is us production versus foreign specifically when it comes to china so important? >> this is a great move by the administration to get ahead of the issue and it is clear policymakers finally understand that we've got a serious problem on our hands as it relates to drone security policy. for years behind-the-scenes we have allowed china to dominate the drone market and obtain this massive market share destroying american competitive advantage in the process and that is very serious because 90% of every single drone in the us, millions of drones are made by chinese firms and most of them made by one specific firm and i don't think americans understand how dangerous that is from a national security standpoint and economically since 9/11 we've always been the leaders
1:25 am
in this restricted classified military drone technology like the predators and the things i use during the wartime scenario but our government never really paid attention to the commercial sector and they have allowed china to dominate that market, that wasn't an issue from the get-go because the technology was seen as less capable it as a toy but this technology is now more powerful than ever, the us government wants to integrate more small drones into their own tactical operations i'm glad is a renewed focus on it from the administration standpoint. >> you mentioned the market share china has on us, she dominance when you look at these numbers, 76.8%. almost 80% of market share. drones are essential to national security but what don't people know about what drones can do in everyday lives, bridges and cell phone towers and things like that? >> drones are seen as essential
1:26 am
now to national security so you are talking about infrastructure and cell phone towers, looking at bridges, not just about the wartime setting which people thought drone technology was used for. it is used for everyday lives. it is a larger strategy of giving us more of a competitive advantage, competition on the world stage. we have to be the world leaders in the government related drone technology and private-sector technology and the us government, you have cheaper, more capable drones capable of inflicting damage if used in the wrong way and they want to start integrating the tech as the technical operations and you can't do that with china's drones, doesn't matter how capable these chinese drones are you can't wonder if some hardware being used by a soldier potentially has a vulnerability with the chinese can hack that information or
1:27 am
get a hold of that video feed so as drone technology becomes part of our everyday lives we have to look at the national security implications. jillian: thank you. todd: a twitter hack targets famous users like barack obama, kanye west and elon musk. west does this say about platform security as we get closer to the election? harmeet dhillon on that next. >> your house is breathtaking. >> i know. you said it looked like a dump from the outside. >> iconic tv house up for sale, the price tag for this golden home. ♪ guys, are you tired

1:33 am
a number of reasons, the data hack that occurred could have happened to you, although direct messages with your friends, coworkers, your lawyer may be may have become exposed. we don't know what these hackers did before they revealed themselves. a lot of security experts suggest in the access they had they could have downloaded all the data they wanted from anybody they wanted and then revealed themselves with the bit coin thing that only generated 300,$000, that can't be the reason they did this. this is the biggest data security breach in the most important one in my opinion in history but beyond that whatever implications for our election? twitter employees have the ability to take over users account and manipulate them from a dashboard. another is by paying money to a couple twitter employees, foreign powers, malicious people, the mob, can get access

your twitter account despite double verification, password changing and all that. if you had a world leader or important politician like some of the people who were hacked tweeting things from their account that were bellicose, threatened a foreign country, made outrageous claims it could start a war. this is incredibly scary and twitter can't brush it off calling at social engineering. there need to be investigations and there will be lawsuits as soon as tomorrow on this. >> jack dorsey's tweet so they had a tough day but to your earlier point, say something happen to donald trump, one of the national security implications, what are the national security. occasions? >> imagine that donald trump manipulated accounts, we are starting bonding on russia or decided to send a fleet of warships to china or we are going to be a blockade or

1:36 am
they been about themselves, their pensions and political power. the teachers association is the most important and powerful political force in california. they on the democratic party and they can make these demands with impunity and democrats are not laughing, there wondering how to satisfy some of these. we have an $8 billion budget for the la unified school district and parents have to educate their own kids at home. i've spoken to teachers, kids and parents in la and they are devastated by this, students are not going to be educated, the shadow puppet online education, many kids are vulnerable, kids with special needs cannot be educated that way. a lot of kids cannot afford to logon when parents are being evicted and there is no plan for this so it is a disaster. as taxpayers, i wish we could demand terrific and reform of the teachers union to figure out how to safely educate most of our children in california.
