Latinos work really hard. Without them expect infrastructure to crumble much worse than it is now.
Wonder if extreme online hate speech includes criticism of the Chinese regime’s genocidal actions in occupied territory.
I bow before their wisdom. I tremble in awe, shaking.
Of course, Canada has a huge "Chinese" lobby too.
Guess the amount of anti-China content is too much for them to handle…
Reading the bill as it is written right now, here's what I think is going to happen: It’s going to pass Congress, signed into law. Then a federal judge will issue a preliminary injunction blocking it on first amendment grounds just like what happened both times with the Montana ban in 2023 and trumps executive order in 2020.
So if they really want to force a sale or ban it, they would have to create the conditions necessary so that the judge can't strike it down via 1A. This bill is more competently drafted than Trump's team attempt (it specifically names Bytedance for example) but nothing so far indicates that it won't go down the path described above -- so far. Will be a shitshow for sure.

Playing Devil's Advocate, people voting in judges could rapidly lead to the tyranny of the majority. Look at Florida and several other conservative states. Thanks to their racist majority they were able to push unfounded Yellow Peril bills in regards to property ownership. Politicians already caused significant damage to certain groups in order to appease their voter base even if the voter base is ultimately wrong. I do not want to imagine what would a judge do to appease their voter base to get elected.
