If you are violating the Take It Down Act, you are going to hear from us and we are going to be ready to do it.

This is incredibly important legislation.

I'm really excited that the FTC has a role in this.

I lobby Congress very heavily to make sure that we had enough money to get this program off the ground when it takes effect in the middle of this year.

We are getting that money and we will be ready.

Look, I am generally of the view that Washington has too many lawyers.

I think it is great that the president has decided to nominate someone who isn't a lawyer, who doesn't sort of think in the pathways that lawyers always think.

I think it's great that the president has nominated, you know, I've never met Mr. McNeil.

I've talked to him a little since the nomination.

The man is a true American patriot.

He's created thousands of jobs in this country.

He has been one of the most outspoken proponents of manufacturing here in America.

That has been one of the president's

principal economic priorities is to make sure we make and build things in America.

David McNeil has done that.

He has been successful in doing that.

And I think it's great that there is going to be sort of someone with that perspective who isn't coming at this like I am from fancy law schools with a long sort of litigation and law enforcement background.

He's coming at it as a job creator, as a wealth creator, and as one of the most outspoken proponents of manufacturing in America that there is in this country.

Is it an unconventional pick?

Yeah, of course it is.
