Rand Paul backed by GOP donor with $33B TikTok stake

Yeah, I don't care about his motives - I looked at the merits and flaws of Paul's opposition to the so-called TikTok ban. Rand Paul is right about this. The proposed legislation would give the federal government the power to ban a lot more than TikTok.

It's a weak tactic - when you can't argue with the merits of a person's position, you question his motives. That's what this NY Post columnist is doing. It doesn't change my mind. Maybe the legislation would be overturned in the years or decades to come by the SC, but there could the hundreds or thousands of instances of free speech rights trampled in the meantime.
