AOC Simped for TikTok, and Walked Right Into an Unbelievable Corruption Scandal
Red State ^ | 3/26/23 | Bonchie

Posted on 03/26/2023 4:30:32 PM PDT by CFW

Recently, the House of Representatives held the first in a series of congressional hearings targeting TikTok and the social media giant’s subservience to communist China. That led to some rather interesting admissions, including the fact that engineers in China (and by proxy, the Chinese government) do have access to the personal information of millions and millions of Americans.

Without a good answer for that massive security issue, TikTok’s CEO borrowed a favorite strategy from the left. Namely, he claimed that any criticism of his company and the Chinese government is xenophobia. He also refused to comment on the Uyghur genocide for very obvious reasons.

Be prepared for the authorities to snap into action and look the other way.

Nope. 99% of average America will never learn of this issue. It will never be an issue in our wonderful objective national big media. Probably has potential as a good election issue-but it will not be.

Perfectly stated.

I realize that most will not even be aware of this issue.

However, you have to admit that once you are aware of what to look for, it’s amazing to watch a broke and in-debt new congressman(person) slowly and then suddenly become a millionaire within a few years of being elected to Congress. For you can tell that is what is happening here.

No wonder people will pay ridiculous amounts of money to be elected to such an office. In fact, even to run and and lose an election can reverse your financial fortunes. Just look at Stacy Abrams who has twice unsuccessfully campaigned for Georgia’s governor’s seat. She was in debt in a major way. Now, she is very wealthy and will add to that wealth by joining “Boards”, “non-profit orgs” and allowing her name to be used in conjunction with “social justice” campaigns, etc. I bet Democrats running for election now even pay her for her endorsement. It’s a big money-making machine and we are the ones providing the money.

A new report is casting doubt on Ocasio-Cortez’s motivation, though. According to Fox News, TikTok’s parent company, Bytedance, gave the Hispanic Congressional Caucus Foundation $150,000 back in December. Guess who happens to sit on the advisory board of that very same foundation? That would be Ocasio-Cortez, who now finds herself using her official position to defend a Chinese company that just so happened to give her caucus foundation a bunch of money. What a coincidence, right?

She could be a chicom spy, Jim.

Stacy had a net worth of $109K 2 election cycles ago

Last I looked, she now has a net worth of $21 MILLION

Just for losing and denying election results

AOC went from a broke penniless bartender that was stealing other people’s tips to a millionaire congresswoman. She claims to be a socialist but is truly a capitalist just like her mentor Bernie Sanders. I wonder how many mansions and yachts she will own by the time she retires from congress?
