Senator Thom Tillis has joined a growing number of Republican lawmakers speaking out after Elon Musk's SpaceX temporarily slowed Starlink satellite communications in Ukraine. In an interview on "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan," Tillis said private companies operating in military and geopolitical space need oversight.
