CASPER, WY – In a move that surprised absolutely no one, TikTok – the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) favorite espionage social media platform – has officially “restricted” the TikTok account of Reid Rasner, the America First CEO of Rasner Media who has put in a $47.45 billion bid to pry TikTok from the grip of Chairman Xi and move the company's operations to the United States.
The reason? Two videos.
- One: An interview with conservative TikTok legend WFF News, in which Rasner had the audacity to suggest TikTok should be run by Americans… in America.
- Two: A shared video by theeldermillennial, one of TikTok’s largest conservative creators, who dared to support Rasner’s bid to bring TikTok home to the land of the free.
TikTok responded with the grace and maturity of a toddler in need of a nap at Wal-Mart — they ripped down the videos, threw a digital "Tiananmen" tantrum, and handed us one of their signature Orwellian participation trophies. They state the content violates their policies "that prioritize safety and are informed by the diversity of our community and cultural norms." Translation: we made the CCP mad for exercising our First Amendment rights in America.
“We are humbled, honored, and frankly thrilled to join the elite club of conservatives censored by TikTok. It’s like a Communist merit badge — and we’re proudly sewing it onto our lapels. If TikTok doesn’t want the American people to hear our plan, we must be doing something right,” said Rasner.
Under Rasner Media’s leadership, TikTok will no longer be a tool used to spy on Americans. Instead, it will be an open platform where you can actually say “I support free speech” without being digitally deported.
“ByteDance silences conservatives, deletes influencers, and manipulates the algorithm like it’s 1984. That ends the day Rasner Media takes the keys. We're not just buying TikTok — we’re liberating it.”

In recent weeks, TikTok creators of all sizes have posted thousands of videos and comments in support of Rasner Media's bid to Make TikTok American. They join a growing chorus of endorsements which include South Dakota Governor Larry Rhoden, the South Dakota Board of Regents and Jason Rapert, the founder and president of the National Association of Christian Lawmakers.
Rasner Media also remains the only bidder highlighted by President Donald Trump on Truth Social for our "most Trumpian" bid.
