Reminder that passing a bill to "punish TikTok" would not only be a violation of the First Amendment, it would also be an unconstitutional bill of attainder. A bill of attainder is a bill where the legislature declares someone (or some group) guilty of some crime, and they pass a bill to punish them for that without a trial. Article 1 Section 9 of the U.S. Constitution states "No Bill of attainder or Ex post facto law shall be passed."
