Digital fentanyl: The CCP’s cyber campaign to destroy America

The CCP has poured their fentanyl onto our streets via their partners south of our border: the Mexican drug cartels. This led to the untimely deaths of more than 100,000 Americans in 2022 alone due to fentanyl overdoses. Now, China has fashioned this death drug into the form of common candy to make it more appealing to our youth. This is the death train being operated by the CCP. It’s the one you can see and feel every day.

Tragically for the United States, the CCP also has a silent killer in the form of digital fentanyl, and it’s called TikTok. This social media platform is a facet of CCP warfare that remains undetected by most.

The CCP has started an information war on the United States that isn’t in the form of news. However, the means by which they’re doing so is only now being accurately reported in the mainstream media. After years of accepting CCP disinformation, our media is finally waking up to the cold hard fact of data theft. The CCP pirates are seizing troves of information daily through TikTok.

The nearly 150 million Americans who sign into the platform daily, nearly half our population, would do well to take a moment to give their thumb a rest and their eyes something to read. Unless, of course, they want the CCP to win.

Unfortunately, through the Biden administration’s disastrous foreign policy, we aren’t set up to win the information war head-on, let alone take on any aspect of it. Download TikTok onto your phone, and the CCP has a four-lane highway into your everyday life for free. We are intentionally giving the CCP a massive money bin of data for free, and Xi is laughing all the way from mainland China. How can we let this be in the United States in 2023?

What are they stealing? Your personal information, information on your family, habits, and hobbies, and your internet footprint for starters. They then collate this information and stack it for use against Americans based on their interests and vulnerabilities. How else do you think Chinese spies infiltrate American lives? It’s not Google.

For those saying “but Tik Tok is an American company,” that’s a false narrative, and it was entirely defeated when the CEO of ByteDance, the Chinese parent company of TikTok, testified before Congress recently. Immediately thereafter, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) demanded public support for TikTok.

Then-President Donald Trump understood the CCP’s intention better than anyone: from their Belt and Road Initiative to the manipulation of their currency and their desire to supplant the United States on the global stage. Trump responded strongly, taking steps to ban TikTok, implementing tariffs and trade sanctions, and expelling Chinese diplomats from the United States.

Biden and his administration have not only reversed every single one of these measures, but have also retracted from taking any position against Xi and the CCP. By doing so, we have seen the rise of the petro-yuan to replace the petro-dollar. We have seen Xi broker deals between Saudi Arabia and Iran, inching the world’s largest state sponsor of terror closer to a weapons-grade nuclear program.

We have seen the gall of the CCP come full circle in Xi’s declaration that he will be the world’s peacemaker. A man who leads a party that’s responsible for three modern-day genocides in China, resulting in concentration camps, forced breeding, and torture, is now the self-anointed face of global diplomacy. And every time you log into TikTok, you’re empowering his maniacal regime and the degradation of the United States. That may be hard for you to believe, but you can follow the intel, or you can follow AOC.

The CCP has one mission: Replace the United States of America as the world leader. The greatest advantage in warfare is information. The CCP siphons and cycles our data that they steal from TikTok to achieve this end. They do so at any cost because they see no cost that’s too great. Therein lies our solution. An overwhelming majority of nations around the world demand a rule of law that respects humanity, not one that binds it in concentration camps.

Tariffs, sanctions, and stopping currency manipulation is a start. We should be shutting down access to the international banking system, ending trade tech relations, and removing CCP spies from U.S. soil. We must stop giving the CCP billions of dollars in U.S. products, technology, and goods only to have them use it against the American people to wage their decades-long mission to replace the United States.

This administration is rewarding the CCP’s tyrannical behavior, but each time you sign into TikTok, you are doing the same. Follow the intel and delete TikTok.
