TikTok Ban Legislation, US Intelligence Domestic Involvement
The House of Representatives passed a bill to ban TikTok, raising concerns that the legislation could be used to target independent third-party websites under the guise of national security.

The suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story by former intelligence officials is cited as a primary example of this ongoing domestic interference.
