(Gateway Pundit) There is a reason states across the country are banning TikTok from official devices includingTexas, South Carolina, and South Dakota.
President Trump previously warned that the CCP is collecting data from American TikTok users, even issuing an Executive Order aimed at banning the communist controlled app.
President Trump was right again.
Remember when Trump tried to ban TikTok….& all the left was pitching a fit

In a rare moment of unity, the Senate voted to ban TikTok on governmental phones and other electronic devices.
The “No TikTok on Government Devices Act” presented by Republican Senator Josh Hawley passed with ease with no member of the Senate objecting the bill.
Senator Hawley said in a statement, “TikTok is a Trojan Horse for the Chinese Communist Party. It’s a major security risk to the United States, and until it is forced to sever ties with China completely, it has no place on government devices.”
Now, we are learning that TikTok tracked multiple journalists gaining IP addresses and user data to try to find sources.
Tiktok “tracked multiple journalists covering the company, improperly gaining access to their IP addresses and user data in an attempt to identify whether they had been in the same locales as ByteDance employees.”https://t.co/RFFlYXrvuy
