On Monday, instead of paying attention to important things, like Joe Biden’s campaign getting a TikTok account, Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) decided to start a fuss about it. He blabbered on about how TikTok is owned by a company called ByteDance, which is from China, and how it’s basically a puppet of the Chinese Communist Party. He went on about how China-based employees can mess with TikTok’s algorithm and get their grubby hands on American user data. Basically, he’s saying that TikTok is bad news and that even Biden’s own FBI Director, Christopher Wray, thinks it’s a big fat security risk.
And then, to top it all off, host Ryan Nobles suggested that it’s kind of two-faced of Biden to ban TikTok on government phones but then use it for his campaign. I mean, seriously, make up your mind, Biden!

Krishnamoorthi kept yapping about giving the Biden administration the power to force a sale of TikTok. He claims he doesn’t want to ban it, but he’s basically saying, “Get TikTok out of here unless it’s owned by someone we like!” What a bunch of baloney!
It’s pretty clear that Krishnamoorthi and his buddies are just trying to make a big fuss over nothing. TikTok is just a fun little app for dancing and silly videos. But leave it to these Democrats to ruin everyone’s fun in the name of “national security.”
Let’s hope someone gives Krishnamoorthi something important to do so he can stop making a mountain out of a TikTok-sized molehill!
