Secure Freedom Minute: TikTok – A Weapon the CCP Would Never Allow Us to Wield

Here’s a thought experiment: If the United States had a means of addictively informing, subversively manipulating and covertly collecting data on half the people of China – without the permission, let alone the control, of the ruling Chinese Communist Party – would the CCP allow us unilaterally to wield such a weapon against them?

As New Yorkers say, “fuggedaboutit.” The CCP would never permit us to do to their population what they are currently doing to 173 million Americans with their TikTok app.

It’s simply gobsmacking that we have allowed that to happen. So is the fact that President Donald Trump – who wanted to prevent it during his first term – has now intervened to postpone enforcement of a law requiring Chinese divestiture of TikTok, passed with overwhelming bipartisan support and unanimously endorsed as constitutional by the Supreme Court.

Uphold the law, Mr. President!
