Serendipitously, or not – depending on who you talk to, I was previously scheduled to be in DC at the moment of inflection for the passage of HR7521, the proverbial “TikToK Ban Law.” Allow me to encapsulate the issues and present the point of those who say there is nothing to worry about.
First, the context that should matter (it doesn’t because the USIC are in charge here) is that every element that preceded the passage of the Patriot Act is being duplicated in the passage of the TikTok ban. Which is to say, everyone is deferring to this ridiculous need to support USA National Security.
We The People have been burned by this approach before, yet so many refuse to see the similarity.
Second, the essential shield for those who support the bill [READ HR7521] comes down to the term “Foreign Adversary”, which is defined in the bill as Russia, China, North Korea and Iran. As they make the case, TikTok ban advocates cite the content or platform of the issue must originate from, and/or be controlled by, a foreign adversary…. so quit worrying.
However, the legislative language cites Foreign Adversary Controlled Application (FACA), which applies to content providers, apps, websites, social media and hosting platforms. This is where things get sketchy, because “under the direction of” is language that is included in the legislation, and the determinations of “at the direction of” are made by the Attorney General.
If the content, platform, website, or social media app generates content that is considered a national security threat, and providing information therein that is deemed to be under the control of a “foreign adversary,” it is the content within, not necessarily the platform ownership itself, that transfers compliance inquiry to the U.S government (DOJ Attorney General) for definitions.
If, for example, a U.S. company (think Twitter or CTH) is deemed to be providing information that is controlled by Russia, or actors who participate in the platform content on behalf of Russia (expand your FARA thinking here), then the U.S. or non-Foreign Adversary designation, may result in review subject to the terms of service as created and defined by the DOJ. In this example, the “Foreign Adversary” designation is simply a nose under the tent.
The DOJ, through this act, essentially becomes the overarching determination of terms of service (TOS) that can supersede the TOS of the platform or website. Want to fight the definition or determination… prepare to spend big money fighting a battle exclusively in the DC Circuit Court of Appeals, as that’s the only place you can appeal the determination of the govt.
As multiple people on the Fox News conservative side of the equation, and a host of seemingly oddly trusting voices who have previously presented themselves in alignment with common principles of freedom, all seem to accept the government would never weaponize this authority. THAT, I find frustratingly odd.
All of the totalitarians (bad people) support this bill, and almost all of the popular conservative voices seemingly agree with them. Color me frustrated.
I do not wish this post to be a bookmark for the time when “Itoldyasos” hold weight; but at this point, it seems like this is the only value in discussion. Too many people on both sides of the political continuum are in favor of HR7521 to seemingly stop it. Now it’s up to the Senate, who will find a way to make money from it and then support it.
Despite my pointing out that Joe Biden previously indicated how he would define these terms; [A conspiracy minded reviewer of the HR 7521 language should look at EXECUTIVE ORDER 14034] my reference point was met with crossed-eyes and the customary look as if a cow just licked them on the face.
(c) The term “country of concern” means any foreign government that, as determined by the Attorney General pursuant to section 2(c)(iii) or 2(f) of this order, has engaged in a long-term pattern or serious instances of conduct significantly adverse to the national security of the United States or the security and safety of United States persons, and poses a significant risk of exploiting bulk sensitive personal data or United States Government-related data to the detriment of the national security of the United States or the security and safety of United States persons, as specified in regulations issued by the Attorney General pursuant to section 2 of this order.
(Section 7 definitions, item (C) – LINK Feb, ’24)
Look, I’m not nuts… and I understand how these silos of contained information work. That citation above, was created before HR-7521 was in the public psyche. What is cited above is part of a Biden intent to “Protect Americans’ Sensitive Data from Foreign Adversaries,” and it was updated about six weeks ago.
It is almost “as if” that executive order was updated purposefully to be used in combination with HR7521. I think it was. However, DC-minded people think I am crazy for using that citation as part of the argument about how the DOJ will define the terms in the TikTok law.
From my perspective, the two issues [HR7521 and XO 14043] are directly related. They both apply to the exact same issue. I believe that recent executive order was created by people behind the Biden administration who were proactively positioning themselves in advance of the new legal authority that was going to be provided by congress in the TikTok ban. But everyone tells me I’m crazy and asks, “How the F**K did you remember that?”
♦ If you look at HR7521 from the position of intent to control online information (not data collection), and if you take a more cynical view of how HR7521 is purposefully vague, and if you overlay how XO-14043 lays out the definitions that Biden will use, then you might find yourself more in agreement with my concerns.
♦ If you do not look at it that way, then yes – CTH is a crazy conspiracy website with a track record of predicting outcomes from a crazy conspiratorial point of view. Exactly the type of website that must be under the influence of a foreign adversary, an independent way of looking at the constructs of government that end up manifesting later in our reality.
I digress.
On the intent of the TikTok ban law, everyone pretends to forget the Patriot Act intent; I don’t.

What Does the TikTok Bill ACTUALLY Say? pic.twitter.com/SfpBChwdNb
— DV (@DV2O24) March 14, 2024
Essentially then a person who thinks for themselves must be stopped at all costs.
All things interwebs connected is but a distraction for the masses to chew their cud.
Let’s keep pretending that a foreign-controlled state isn’t the power behind this rush to censor. Do you see the strings, or do you refuse to?
This legislation did suddenly gain congressional support because of demands for censorship from the Israel lobby. Apparently the Israel lobby are alarmed by how widespread opposition is to Israel’s ethnic cleansing operation in Gaza and their preferred method for tamping down this opposition is to restrict what people are allowed to hear, see, think and say about it.
Telegram.
Depending on who you follow the truth is available.
And with the truth on your side there is no need to spread talking point propaganda.
I’ve seen this claim on other sites as well. It makes sense but, I haven’t seen anything to support it.
The question is. What do they wield over those in lofts of power and influence to have them follow their lead. How deep is the cancer in the intel agencies and how deep is the coordination between foreign state actors? I can see some, but basically, the entire loft is marching in lockstep. Having an intel file on everyone? Remember, the target doesn’t need to be compromised, it could be someone the target cares for. After the first favor is done, they own the target forever.
There it is. Same reason that after the long SOH struggle, Mike Johnson glides in place with seeming ease. Receives substantial AIPAC donations.
not to mention they have young women on Tiktok talking about how great the Koran is.
There’s also new complaining on TikTok about how dreadful the latest film release from Angel Studios is because it’s not making a Catholic saint out to be a feminist or socialist.
They could learn much from Mother Cabrini.
That’s one angle of the equation.
Mark, your question has become one of my biggest frustrations today. It is absolutely amazing how so many people continue to keep their heads in the sand while PRETENDING that “everything will be alright” and thus they refuse to see, hear or listen as the “machine” inches forward each day slowly destroying their freedom and other liberties. I believe similar human behavior was noted in both the Nazi and Stalin regimes.
I see’em.
yup. Americas are conditioned to cheer and chant every step of their own death march.
Sundance…of course you are correct. Yes, this is part of the cabal’s scheme to control and influence speech, ideas and the minds of voters. I am overcome by the tentacles reaching out and engulfing our nation at this moment. Between this broad legislative effort, and the current spate of House members resigning under either compromised threat or financial payoff, the blob is determined to wipe out Trump and the last vestige of legislative hope.
People may just end up meeting and organizing at pubs, clubhouses, and school auditoriums in person. When they drive us to that what will they do then? Ban people from gathering as they tell us how much freedom we have and how they are protecting demonocracy?
Yes, the Covid lockdowns were a test run.
Strike 1: The Blob never passes a bill this fast and with such fervor while there is a persistent smell of burning hair everywhere.
Strike 2: If the Blob’s demoncrats overwhelmingly support the bill, it will have a negative result on freedom. If the statists are happy, you should be very concerned.
Strike 3: If the Blob openly tolerates porn sites, grooming sites, gender re-assignment sites, snuff videos, vaccine promotion sites, nazi sites, Jihadist sites, and many other deviant/evil content sites, with no corresponding virtue signalling legislation, something’s wrong with the narrative and goals.
Retarded people with smartphones always choose to do retarded things. That’s just a fact. They are the threat to national security, not the rest of the normal people that avoid the weird stuff and just try to order dog treats from Walmart every now and then or pay their utility bills.
Does anyone think there’s a realistic chance that the patriot act will be repealed and/or the intelligence agencies will be abolished? Obviously these are steps that absolutely must be undertaken if our democratic republic and the constitutional order are to be preserved.
Not a chance. The information gleaned is their power. The effect of the information, and then installing actors in all lofts of power and influence is exponentially unstoppable. It feeds on itself and is self-replicating.
It will take a revolution.
A devolution is a better choice. The insidious Bolshevik Russian intelligence apparatus failed not from too much information — bur too much beauracracy. Eventually decisions wete made on assessments of assessments of assessments on intelligence data. Information was a fantasy.
How could we accellerate the devolution to crash the system?
The exposure of so much the last few years may well be part of a devolution that is coming to a head.

State and Local Election Officials Testify on Election Administration and Security
12 Mar 2024
https://www.c-span.org/video/?534149-1/state-local-election-officials-testify-election-administration-security
State and local election officials, including secretaries of state Jocelyn Benson (D-MI) and Wes Allen (R-AL), testified before the Senate Rules Committee on election preparation, administration, and security, with a focus on the 2024 election cycle. Several topics were addressed, including election worker protections, cybersecurity, challenges posed by artificial intelligence (AI), and protecting against misinformation and disinformation. Also addressed during the hearing were voter mobilization efforts, voting rights, and concerns posed by foreign adversaries to interfere in the upcoming U.S. elections.
Yeah, Benson is here to steal Michigan, same as 2020.
I’ve followed MI election returns online for a 1/4 century, in real time, county by county, ’til 2020, when suddenly the SoS website went blank, no data, and for weeks following. We know, Benson.
Agreed. Free speech means the CCP is free to buy our airwaves. We should oppose the TikTok ban as Patriot Act 2.0!
And tell Yazz he can keep his money.
Yes, be afraid, very afraid. The good of the people is always the despot’s path.
BackRock can arrange for 20% “foreign entity” control of any publicly traded company with three clicks of a mouse.
A FISA warrant can indict any US citizen on any charge with just three hops.
Life behind the velvet curtain. Meet your new boss- same as your old boss.
I despise these people. I do not consider them Americans. They are foreign puppets betraying us for 30 pieces of silver.
Exactly
And just like Canada, then can then lock you away.
All animals are equal, but some are more equal.
No different than the vagueness of ObamaCare “at the direction of” allowed the “director” to make draconian decisions and gave politicians cover because “they didn’t vote for that”. Fill in the blanks by the administrative state never ends well.
This is how Hitler and the Nazis did it, they just did it far more rapidly. But it’s the same authoritarianism. They created their own Reichstag Fire on January 6, and are now implementing their own Acts of Emergency to squelch all opposition. Our path is the exact same as the Nazis’. Where will ours’ lead?
This is not the country I was born into. I reject this aconstitutional tyranny.
10/07 is what has changed and is the group behind this attack on the 1A.
The most verboten thought to think these days.
You just made AOC’s Marxist reeducation camp enrollment list.
I think that you meant the Enabling Act.
This is all the more reason that Truth Social, Rumble, CTH, Rogan’s Show, Tucker and X which probably touch 300m+ people worldwide need to unite now and form the American First Freedom of Speech Social Media Network.
This is why PT, Sundance, Tucker, Rogan, Elon and Chris Paveloski need get in a room and strategize NOW!
I’m no techie but in the end is it possible all of these platforms could be connected via Starlink to help protect and preserve free speech maybe as a backup plan?
Build a free speech network group, figure out how to protect it and as a united front touching hundreds of millions you now have more financial strength, not to mention a huge audience of the masses.
I’d even go a step further and see if this group might also put in place within this new alliance, a network 500-1000 American First news reporters who touch all 50 states to ensure honest and truthful reporting and their stories/reports are driven back through this newly created Big 6 free speech social media network. This group of 500-1000 “truth” reporters can be used to offset the reporting to Americans that the current networks and cable guys decline to share every day.
Remember this group has the masses which also means the ability to pull together huge amounts of money. I.e 300m x $100 per person = $30 B
Why can’t this be challenged as an affront to the 1A and taken to the Supreme Court as a totalitarian power grab? This legislation basically makes the 1A null and void. Everything our so-called representatives do is against us.
If this bill was not a threat to silence opposing voices the language would be straightforward singling out TikTok. It is not.
The only thing left to occur is an evening vote while everyone is asleep followed by a quick signing of the legislation by the puppet and the announcement of more “Republican” retirements.
It will only get worse as we near November. If there actually is an election it will be the dirtiest and most dishonest in history. Those who steal power rarely give it up.
Sundance is on point here… case in point, the Russia, Russia, Russia scam. These nuts claimed that Trump was in league with Russia. Per their claim, not fact, under this new law they could go after Truth Social since he owns part of it!
Or make it legal retroactively to go after PDJT being deemed by the sitting pResident of foreign influence.
👍 I would put nothing past these evil creatures
This is why if PT wins I hope he considers declassifying virtually all communications from key leftists and share with the American people to show the possible conspiracy to take down a sitting President from 2016-2023.
IMO DJT has a snowballs chance in hell with this illegal occupational regime controlling the entire corrupt pos gov. However, Trump does have a good comeback record so who knows what will happen. He had better have an ace up his sleeve.
The ace-in-the-hole is that 11″ – thick binder.
I disagree in this instance.
If only to publicly punish Xi and a couple of his friend$ it’s worth it. A lessening of CCP’s ability to influence stupid American kids is collateral.
As for precedent – we should establish a precedent we can do things to CHINA we don’t do to others, given they’re actively engaged in an ‘unrestricted warfare’ war against us.
You are at war. I see only a rival. Stop being stupid, and you will best your rival.
“Unrestricted Warfare” .
https://www.c4i.org/unrestricted.pdf
Read it. Understand it.
I really like it when people post their “sources” of information yet fail to read their own sources. You just refuted your own arguments…..
“…. the force of the media will increasingly be another player in the war and will play a role comparable to that of military strikes in promoting the course of the war. Unlike battlefield propaganda, which has an excessively subjective tinge and is easily rejected by an opponent or neutral individuals, because it is cleverly cloaked as objective reporting the media has a quiet impact that is hard to gauge. In the Gulf, in the same manner that the U.S.-led allied forces deprived Iraq of its right to speak militarily, the powerful Western media deprived it politically of its right to speak, to defend itself, and even of its right to sympathy and support, and compared to the weak voice of Iraqi propaganda, which portrayed Bush as the “great Satan” who was wicked beyond redemption, the image of Saddam as a war-crazed aggressor was played up in a much more convincing fashion. It was precisely the lopsided media force together with the lopsided military force that dealt a vicious one-two blow to Iraq on the battlefield and morally, and this sealed Saddam’s defeat.”
Your “source” is saying the US govt. is jealous when others take their powers away from them.
Eh?
TikTok = media. TikTok IS a weapon.
“Understand it”.
I understand that you’re being purposefully obtuse.
Benjamin Franklin once said: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”
You are misinformed if you believe it’s only the kids on TT. The destruction of the platform will only hurt the 1A.
Lol. ‘China’ appears to be the primary diversion word among those with exponentially more influence. Once you see it you can’t unsee it. Not defending China, just observing a pecking order.
🎯
And what about the unrestricted warfare out IC is inflicting on us?
Or are simply deflecting away from thar?
It does not just cover TikTok. That is the part you need to understand. They can determine if any site is spreading what they think is foreign interference, you know, like the truth when it comes to exposing their corruption and criminality before an important election.
If the members of the Communist Party (Demoncrats) support it, it can’t be good.
Are some of you still on that “hopium” train?
Nobody is gonna save us.
It’s time to start a new strategy after this election.
Voting isn’t working.
Haha.
Bless your heart!
I definitely agree. I told people the Patriot Act was unconstitutional when they were trying to pass it, but no one listened. This TikTok ban is the same thing, covered in a different shell. Another aha moment people should have gotten is when the democrats are all in for it, you know it’s not good. When RINOs support it, it’s not good. Finally, they could have done this years ago as politicians and pundits have been screaming about TikTok for quite a while, yet it’s just now getting pushed through … in an election year when Trump is winning court cases. Not a coincidence.
I could be completely off base but something tells me getting this bill being passed now will somehow be weaponized against Pres Trump. Politicians and media are now pushing the narrative that Pres Trump has this ‘relationship’ with foreign leaders in Russia and maybe China or N. Korea. And since the ‘trials’ appear to be failing to stop Trump as MAGA support grows, they’re getting desperate – both sides of the aisle.
The something that tells me that is that PDJT (and sundance) are both opposed to it!
If the Communist Demon-crats are for the TikTok bill rest assured, it’s provisions will be weaponized against Conservatives just like the FACE Act and Patriot Act.
Stay frosty…
The system is corrupt therefore all the players in the system are corrupt. Time to make a plan folks the door will be closing soon.
Liberal minded people, educated by our “Liberal Arts” educational system, are being brainwashed to follow their Liberal masters and believe them to be the necessary force to maintain stability and safety in our country. They refuse to consider the idea that their beloved leaders might be controlled by a malevolent force motivated by a thirst for power and control. Those who look on with scepticism at the “radical Left” ideology can see the danger to our institutions and way of life. Truly, a belief in the God of the Old and New Testament scriptures and an obedience to their moral teachings bring a freedom from the bondage of sin and dictatorial power. The Spirit of Christ leads, the spirit of Antichrist seeks to control.
Amen
well said keep it up Peace Sol Benedict
Seems that’s why our country is filling with undesirables. Good excuse to ask for more surveillance than use it to destroy what freedom we have left.
Foreign Adversary = BRICS+ (The grey countries on the world map)
My Guruji, Sundance. Thank you. I get it. What can I do to help?
The biggest threat to the freedom and security of the United States is the United States government.
> If, for example, a U.S. company (think Twitter or CTH) is deemed to be providing information that is controlled by Russia
Given DOJ’s history of strident Russia, Russia, Russia nonsense and lawfare against candidate then president Trump, content that is pro-Trump would be targeted by DOJ.
TDS hysteria, confirmation bias, and a totalitarian mindset… or just willful blatant lies and a totalitarian mindset, neither bode well.
I am with you Sundance and always have been.
I tend to look at this issue as proven via the financial and legal contractual aspects of reality as well as via the actual events that transpire once this Bill becomes law and has happened with the Patriot Act (and its many renewed forms since 2001).
The US Government is in a CONTRACTUAL Relationship with US Big Tech and I/T. That contract includes providing data as well as following direction from the Government to censor and punish.
Every US Big Tech, Social Media and I/T company has a CONTRACTUAL, EQUITY and CONTENT agreement with companies located within or owned by … the evil 4 and others via US Government approved Export Licenses and associated Off-Set Agreements. All “industrial-commercial participants” SHARE CONTENT and derived revenue from the CONTENT (not the platforms).
Every one of the evil 4 and other nations are receiving Money Directly (aid, loans, grants the UN, et al.) from the US Government and have Links directly to the US Government via the US State Department, INTEL and DHS Agencies.
At least as far back as 2004 … China Inc., other evil actors and supposedly Western Democracies have been Beta Testing US I/T Developed APPs as Integrated tools to enable control over their populations (see export license comment above).
In a word … just like the simpler example of US State DMV Data Bases and Voter Databases being INTEGRATED to Dominion Microsoft based Voting Systems … It is ALL Integrated with multiple international points of CONTROL by any Global Government with a contract … it goes beyond the US.
The Financial Puppet Masters (actual owners of the I/T addressed in this legislation) have NO National Allegiance but do have control levers in each national capital where they do business.
How did we end up at the point where *all* decisions made by the federal government must be adjudicated in the D.C. Court of Appeals? Federal decisions have nationwide impact, thus any appeals court in the nation should be able to review them. WTH?!
Good question …. It is simple … look no further the Congressional Oversight Committees and Congress NOT Doing their jobs.
Then look no further than the fact,that even with and when President Trump is in office, he has no control over the Senate which handles the appointment of leadership to the agencies or Swamp acting on behalf of the Puppet Masters.
Combine the above with a corrupted and compromised Court System (see comment on Senate above) and the Checks and Balances of the Constitution are compromised, being used to legitimize the actions of the professional class.
Keep in mind that since being elevated to the role of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court … Chief Justice John Roberts is RESPONSIBLE for supervising as well as being the first appeal point for the DC District Court and FISA Court.
A “Republican” Appointee has legitimized the DC Court and FISC.
This would apply to every website the Cabal deemed foreign-controlled; “Nice website ya got there, Mike Lindell. Be a shame if it had website-hosting services anywhere overseas.”
“Nice website ya got there, Bannon, …”
“Nice website ya got there, Gateway Pundit, …”
”Nice website ya got there, Raheem Kassam…”
”Nice website ya got there, Darren Beattie…”
”Nice website ya got there, Citizen Kane..”
”Nice website ya got there______”
And suddenly, the same people who don’t trust the government to handle the vaxx are now the same ones trusting the government to handle their freedoms……
So Fani can continue to persecute PDJT…must be that election coming up next month for McAfee.

Echoes of the famous Martin Niemöller poem:
When they came for Der Sturmer (neo-Nazi website, the very first denied web hosting due to “hate speech” and “problematic content”), I said nothing because I do not like neo-Nazis.
When they came for Alex Jones, I said nothing because I don’t like Alex Jones.
When they came for Parler, I said nothing because Parler sucks.
When they came for TikTok, I said nothing because I don’t like TikTok.
Then when they came for The Conservative Treehouse … there was nobody left to speak up for us.
Excellent
You have the reason for the bill if you listen to Nimaratta. “For every 30 minutes you spend on tikTok, you become 17 % more antisemitic.” This is what they are worried about.
I won’t engage in a censorship discussion that is a case by case basis. The 1st amendment is all or nothing. You can’t be a little bit pregnant, and you cant have minor violations of the 1st amendment.
You are either free or not free. If you are not free, start removing the obstacles from your pathway.
It’s not that specific. The US intelligence community doesn’t control TikTok the way it controls other social media. Of course, that’s because TikTok is controlled by the Chinese intelligence community, and the American version is tuned to spread degeneracy and perversion. It’s all part of China’s “disintegration warfare” to destroy America’s social fabric.
Unfortunately, given the character of the Biden administration American control of TikTok will likely mean it becomes even more degenerate, perverse, and censorius.
Yes. I get it. The interest payments on the debt have just surpassed the entire defense budget. So everything will be banned probably by the end of the year regardless of whether this TicTok ban is passed or not. The reckoning is coming and when it does all communication not from the government will be banned.
I’m always torn about things like this because TikTok, Twitter, Facebook, etc are making people even more stupid, even more callous, and even more dishonest. If I had my way, they’d be dropped into an active volcano.
The fact that they’re only banning one of these tells you how big the lie is.
TikTok is the pretext to extend even more controls over social media. Everybody hates TikTok the same way everyone in 1913 hated the robber barons, and cheered when the Federal Income Tax was imposed on them.
It didn’t take long for everyone to be subject to the new “millionaire tax.” And it won’t be long before EVERY social media platform and website will be under control of the Intelligence Community.
“All of your base are belong to us.” I’m sure they’ll clamp down on blogs like CTH as well. For reasons of “national security” dontcha know.
Everything Tic Tok is being accused of, Facebook has been doing for years. The only difference is “they” can’t control what is being put up on Tic Tok. The alphabet companies paid Jack and Zuck Billions of our tax dollars to push their desired agenda on Twitter and FB. They need someone they can control to decide what gets put up on Tic Tok.
I keep remembering the Russia, Russia, Russia charges leveled at President Trump, and Elon Musk might be a closet South African.

Also, no one talks about how these bills are always amended down the road to make them exponentially worse. They will slip it into the back pages of a large bill and NO ONE reads large bills; especially the people voting on them
“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” Benjamin Franklin
a wise man.
Same for you,Sundance, thank you.
Since our congress is owned (donors) by foreign entities can we censor their opinions, too? What about foreign owned Bribem and all the other Chinese agents in his admin? Wouldn’t anything they say be subject to censorship if they are owned by a foreign adversary gov? Oops, the Ag would no doubt give them a pass. SD is right. This gives the illegal occupational coup regime dictatorial censorship powers that basically nullify the First Amendment. So, I’m guessing the opinions here at The Last Refuge (A fitting name, indeed!) that this regime doesn’t like will be censored. Why can’t the idiots on “our side” see this garbage legislation for what it is? It’s a blatant fkn power grab! I’m no political genius and I can even see where this is going, especially in an election year! Big time election interference. Oh, and when they run out of money and SHTF, the dictatorship can censor what caused it to the dumb down sheeple who have had their heads in the sand. This TikTok ban is a Trojan horse!
Our politicians are controlled by the IC and their globalist masters.
That’s why they do and don’t do what they do.
Sundance God Bless you and keep you safe. I hear your frustration rabbit hole excavating
is beyond tiring. First is self care, breathe oxygen, you/us know at the deepest level we
are in a war and you are one of the light bringers. Thank you for being a architect
for a new America. We the People God Speed
If Joe Biden sees that photo of Sundance on the edge of the cliff, you KNOW he would use his favorite joke line.
“Don’t jump!”
I think many low-info citizens see “TikTok” in the headlines and think to themselves, “Don’t use it, don’t care.”
I posted yesterday (in a hurry, had no time to read all of this) that I figured the correct position is to be opposed to this bill because, despite all the voices clamouring for it including high profile supposed MAGA media voices, the two main ones opposing it are PDJT and Sundance.
I don’t know what happened to my comment. But yesterday while I was out doing yard work a TruthSocial message floated by my phone indicating that PDJT was doubling down on fighting against this bill.
Good enough for me! And now I see plenty of confirmation…
