I'm sure this doesn't have anything to do with anything else: TikTok's Chinese parent company ByteDance just happened to give a six figure donation to the Black and Hispanic (Leftwing) Caucus "nonprofits."
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., was criticized for defending TikTok after it was revealed the app's Chinese-owned parent company gave six-figure donations to the Black and Hispanic caucus non-profits.
Fox News Digital previously reported that disclosures show ByteDance, TikTok's Chinese parent company, funneled six-figure contributions to nonprofits aligned with the congressional Black and Hispanic Caucuses. ByteDance donated $150,000 to both the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation and Congressional Hispanic Caucus Foundation in December, its lobbying contribution report shows.
Jake Denton, who handles tech policy for the Heritage Foundation, noted on Twitter Sunday that AOC is a member of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute (CHCI) advisory council.
"What a coincidence!" Denton wrote, responding to Ocasio-Cortez's video defense of TikTok initially shared Saturday.
