Sen. Rand Paul Defends TikTok, Calls Fox Host Brian Kilmeade a Liar
Fox’s Kilmeade, Rand Paul Throw Down Over TikTok Ban, China Ownership: ‘You Just Told a Lie, Brian!’
Rand Paul gets in heated debate over ownership of TikTok parent company ByteDance - Story by Asher Notheis of the Washington Examiner
Paul was discussing his opposition to banning TikTok and how people need to be more clear on who owns ByteDance, the parent company of the platform. It comes after the House of Representatives voted on Wednesday to pass legislation to force TikTok to separate itself from ByteDance or risk getting banned in the United States.
"This is the most important fact of all of this, and it needs to be debated, not assumed as a fact," Paul said on Fox News's Fox & Friends. "The company’s owned 60% by international investors, 20% by the two Chinese software engineers who developed it, the entrepreneurs who began the business, and 20% by their employees, 7,000 of whom are American. So, it’s a very diverse ownership. It’s not owned by the Chinese government. In fact, on TikTok’s board, there are no Chinese nationals that control this or are associated with the government at all. They're CEOs from Singapore. So, this is an international corporation, and like every other international corporation, they deserve their day in court. You can’t just take their property. Look, I have a lot of arguments with the Chinese communists. I have a lot of arguments with the Saudi authoritarians. But I’m not saying we should allow banning anybody to do business with the Saudis because they have an unsavory government as well and because they spy on their people."
