Yes, and that 'movement' went absolutely nowhere bill-wise. For the longest time in the US, the proponent of a ban was the DJT administration, which saw it as a threat to their election chances.
Suddenly Congress' 500+ members come together like a bipartisan Voltron to draft, vote and pass a bill about Tiktok, matching the speed and urgency of military aid bills for foreign countries? When there is a much more domestically significant border security bill that's been stuck for months, in an election year?
It doesn't add up. Congress can make a case for the military aid, it hasn't made one for TT.
