James Charles Goes On Expletive-Filled Tirade Against Congress Over TikTok Ban

Congress’ potential TikTok ban isn’t sitting right with some people … especially influencers it’s going to affect like James Charles — who absolutely trashed the government.

The controversial social media star was at the 35th annual GLAAD Awards and — while walking the red carpet — he was asked about the potential TikTok ban that just passed through the House of Representatives.

Charles didn’t mince words … doing on an expletive-laden tirade that’s sorta taking social media by storm at the moment where he laments the number of issues the U.S. is facing — and makes it clear he doesn’t think TikTok is one of them.

JC points out that the TikTok bill is relatively new to the discussion table … whereas lots of other bills have languished in front of the governing body for years.

James says — if nothing else — that should show people Congress really can get things done … but, only when it’s something that truly benefits them.

Charles says this is exactly why people need to get out and vote … especially important given that it’s an election year, he says.

As we reported … the bill calls upon ByteDance, TikTok’s parent company, to sell off the social media platform or lose access to the American market anyway — and it passed in a rare bipartisan landslide, moving to the Senate on the back of a 352 to 65 vote.

Anyhoo, Charles’ reaction to the bill’s passing is generating some buzz online … and — while most people agree he’s in the right — many of them are giving him kudos begrudgingly … oftentimes making it clear they’re not big fans of his.
