Rep. Rich McCormick Calls for Tougher Measures to Combat CCP Hacking and Espionage

In this episode, we sit down with Rep. Rich McCormick (R-Ga.), a decorated veteran who served over 20 years in the U.S. Marine Corps and U.S. Navy as a helicopter pilot and a medical corps officer.

As a lawmaker, he has co-sponsored legislation to challenge the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) rampant economic espionage and tech influence campaigns, and a resolution supporting formal recognition of Taiwan.

“We now are in a new evolution of warfare where we’re heavily reliant on technologies. This has changed conventional warfare forever,” McCormick says.

Three U.S. Army soldiers were recently indicted for stealing top-secret information for the Chinese regime. The U.S. has also charged 12 Chinese hackers and officials for cyber operations targeting U.S. agencies and media outlets, including The Epoch Times.
