US senators unveil bipartisan legislation expanding President Biden’s legal authority to ban TikTok nationwide, marking the latest proposal threatening the social media platform’s future in the United States

A dozen US senators unveiled bipartisan legislation Tuesday expanding President Joe Biden’s legal authority to ban TikTok nationwide, marking the latest in a string of congressional proposals threatening the social media platform’s future in the United States. The legislation, called the Restricting the Emergence of Security Threats that Risk Information and Communications Technology Act, does not target TikTok specifically for a ban.

John Thune, is less prescriptive — granting the Commerce Department wide discretion to identify, and then to mitigate, perceived risks stemming from technology produced by companies with ties to foreign adversaries including China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Cuba and Venezuela. The bill specifically directs the Secretary of Commerce to “identify, deter, disrupt, prevent, prohibit, investigate, or otherwise mitigate” national security risks associated with technology linked to those countries.

I enjoy the videos about Biden on Tiktoc that are exposing him. Yeah, they want to hide that.
