Mike McCaul (R) is the Head of the Foreign Affairs Committee and has led the movement to ban Tiktok in the US
Back in Nov, he filed ~$400K worth of $META buys in his spouse & 21 Year Old Son's Names
Since then, $META is up 70%
It would be interesting to know when he (they) sells. When it comes to stocks/investing selling is the hard part.

Is that also part of the disclosure?
 
censorship?
I only barely know that tic-tok is some app kids use on their cell phones to watch and create videos. I was under the impression that it's something for people who crave attention, like to show off or their "followers."
Not sure what's worse, the followers or the leaders. I'm sure I don't care about either.

The concern from our Government is that Tic-tok is owned by a Chinese co. / their government and the collection of personal information from our citizens, attention seeking youth, could eventually be used against us in some way? ….. tic-tok goes down the clock 🤷🏻‍♂️ O-Boy, what to do ?

I sort of got that much from the corporate media and their associates in the political parties. I just don't go for that idea that we ought to censor China, Russia, Iran, North Korea and other companies. Let their arguments and products stand up to Western products and Western ideas. If we're to have the best possible future we need competition of ideas----------not censorship.

Oh yeah, and it might help to ACTUALLY educate America's children in math and science so they can distinguish Shit from Shinola. We're failing there and no amount of censorship can repair that fatal cultural flaw.

Ticktock and it's usage agreements allow keystroke loggers. You want them logging the password to your bank account, your emails ...... everything you type.
Bad enough, but Chinese companies are required to turn over ALL data they receive to the government.
Not that their government would use it to blackmail or other nefarious things.
 
Missouri legislature has a couple good bills under consideration and considering that Republicans have the majority in both houses and we have a Republican governor they have a good shot. One bill would prohibit certain countries, China, N. Korea, Iran, Venezuela, etc, from buying/owning any farm land in the state. The other would let the governor appoint special prosecutors for any county that has a high homicide rate and they could take over those cases.

That's taking away people's rights!
.......and returning power to the victims 👍
 
Need to hire people that have a conscience.
How do we as a people ( humanity ) activate this conscience ?

Well ! I woke 😝 up with this philosophical thought just a minute ago and texted it to myself for later on contemplation and editing. Hey ! How about you guys edit it for me. Try to get inside my mind and convey that message a little better. Ok let me try to screen shoot it here. 🤞

How do we activate this Justice?
... jail time? 😁 Sorry, sometimes it's easier for me to understand deep thoughts by Jack Handy. 😁
You instill the concepts early in life. Once molded, formed and hardened, it's like comparing a lump of clay to a kiln fired Chia Pet..... difficult to reshape, so it's best do do it right first go 'round.
