A Full Court Press to Get the Lead Out
The kids not only lived in a cloud of despair but in a cloud of lead-infused dust. The former made achieving their dreams difficult. The latter made it impossible.

“My message to TikTok,” says Congressman Mike Gallagher of Wisconsin, a leading China hawk, is “break up with the Chinese Communist Party or lose access to your American users.” An overwhelming majority in the House of Representatives agreed, voting to demand the sale of TikTok to a US entity in six months or, if a sale cannot be made, a total ban on it. The bill now goes to the Senate, where it may not pass. […]
