Congress Says Tik Tok Connected to the Cartel?

Weird stuff here. I’m not a Tik Toker but I know how wildly popular the site is. People of all ages and races love the new social media platform, but it’s apparently at risk of being shut down by the US Government.

According to Vice, Congress believes the Chinese based company has strong cartel ties and promotes drug use?

In addition to fierce online resistance and hashtag campaigns, fans have also created a Change.org petition in hopes to help save the social media site from cancellation.

I don’t know if Congress will consider, but here is the link to the petition if you’re interested.

Milwaukee Man Plows Vehicle Through Christmas Parade; Kills Five People

Darrell Brooks Jr.

Darrell Brooks Jr. is the man suspected of being the driver who viciously plowed through a crowded Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin killing 5 people and injuring at least 40.

Brooks has been charged three times in less than two years with recklessly endangering the safety of others, most recently in an incident in which he is accused of running a woman over with his vehicle in Milwaukee.

As of now there is no motive given for his horrific actions, though some reports say he was fleeing the scene of another crime.

Brooks faces at least five counts of first-degree intentional homicide as well as additional charges. The penalty for first-degree intentional homicide is a mandatory life prison sentence.
