    Bingo. TikTok is just a tool for the CCP.

    Very difficult to watch total buffoons actually make sense.
    I refuse to believe the CCP is all bad. How could they be and still be responsible for the Italian cooks and fly fishers I love? ??

      • If I'm from Singapore I probably can't wait to get out of a meeting getting grilled by idiotic republicans, out of sh*hole D.C., and back to my pristine country...

          This is a really funny comment. I wonder if there are differences in local governing approaches that led to Singapore being pristine and DC a shithole.

            There are downsides, I guess. 1. It's very expensive to live there as you might expect for a place whose public streets, subways, etc are cleaner and better kept than Disneyland. 2. If you are inclined to commit crimes you will probably get your ass whipped by a martial arts expert in a public setting. I have never felt safer walking at night anywhere on Earth.

              Trump would deliver the same type of clean, safe streets if people would just give him the power to make it happen.

                I know, right?? He just needs a litttttle bit more power! Then he could put down those stupid protesters with actual bullets-- not this weak teargas/ bean bag crap.

                • Yes, and if he wins it's so unfair to hold him to only 4 years.

                    If the questions were about TikTok, that would be one thing. They weren't. They were about Chew himself, a Singaporean national and former officer in the Singapore Armed Forces. Even then, I wouldn't be too worried if the questions were actually relevant. Questions like, "hey, you were ByteDance's CFO before you became TikTok's CEO. What are the lines of information communication between the two companies?" Or "Mr. Chew, you seem to be connected to a number of companies with shady practices: Bytedance, Tiktok, Xiaomi, Goldman Sachs. Any reason for that?"

                    But no. It's "Are you a member of the CCP?" "Are you a citizen of China?" "Are you a pursuing joint US citizenship?" It's stupid, and the questions show Cotton's underpinning racist assumptions.

                    • This poll is kind of bolstering Fus' paranoia.



                      Biden needs to start acting unilaterally on the border, even if it's just for appearances. I guess he just needs to hope the economy keeps slowly moving in the right direction. Maybe pay lip service to the problem of crime that's hurting inner cities.

                        I don't know how reliable the Quinnipiac poll is, but the latest one has Biden with a 50% to 44% lead over Trump.

                          • Bloomberg had a poll that was similar to that last week.

                                Right. A poll of with a sample of 72% white, super heavy on non-college grads, and pulling from Registered Voters instead of Likely Voters.
