Happy Mother's Day to Mama Krach, an amazing mother and grandmother. She likes to remind me: "Don't live in the past, but never forget where you came from." Don't worry, Mama Krach; I speak of it often, and fondly.

TikTok is a digital virus. @WSJ reports, "more than two dozen state governments have placed web-tracking code made by TikTok parent ByteDance Ltd. on official websites..." Communist China's weaponization of TikTok and their pursuit of digital authoritarianism must be stopped.

I've been going to China since 1981, but @StateDeptSpox Ned and I know a China visit is not required to comprehend the UN’s definition of Punishable Genocide. See the link for the Central Committee's reference. What CCP dictionary are you using, Miss Hua?

Technology is either grounded in trust principles (rule of law, human rights, property, transparency, sovereignty, environment) to advance freedom, or it is weaponized by authoritarian regimes to control and oppress. @TechDiplomacy believes technology must advance freedom.
