For those concerned about the threat posed by China’s genocidal communist regime and what has been the tepid response of our government to date, last week brought good news.
The House Committee on Energy and Commerce voted 50-0 to require Beijing-brd ByteDance — the corporate parent of TikTok, which is probably the most successful psychological warfare operation in history — to divest its ownership within 165 days.
The other bit of good news is that the masks are finally off on the Republican side of China’s infiltration of the United States.
