You mean like how rideshare apps told their users to vote in specific ways on specific ballot proposals? No talk about banning those apps.
Sure, but as far as I'm aware they're American companies. Americans are allowed to influence our elections. Foreign agents are not. Whether they're doing it on behalf of China or not, they're foreign agents with a lot of political power, and have been shown to use it for their own self interest.
Billionaires might as well be considered foreign agents. They're parasites who are doing a lot more damage to the country than any actual foreign agent has ever managed.
