Nick Sandmann, the former Covington Catholic High School student who gained national attention after the mainstream media lied about an interaction that he had with a Native American man in 2019, responded to Twitter CEO Elon Musk releasing internal company documents about how the social media platform was previously engaged in censorship by asking him to look into the threats that were allowed against him on the platform.

Sandmann was the focal point of a media firestorm in January 2019 when he stood in front of Native American activist Nathan Phillips and smiled as he wore a “Make America Great Again” hat. Sandmann faced repeated smears and vile attacks in the media over the incident and several news organizations were forced to settle lawsuits with him as a result.

Sandmann highlighted something he posted a couple of years ago that showed a verified accounts on the platform making threats against him and his classmates.

“As I’m watching this all play out, I’m wondering if @elonmusk has any hidden twitter files relating to what went on here,” Sandmann said. “Let’s be clear: under the watch of @vijaya they allowed these illegal threats when I was 16 years old.”

“We never sued twitter for the section 230 complications,” he added. “That doesn’t mean I’ve given up uncovering the truth of what really went on.”

Musk released the information Friday evening through journalist Matt Taibbi. The documents showed that the platform was working in conjunction with then-Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden’s team, removing tweets that team Biden wanted deleted.

Musk said that he decided to release the information because it was “necessary to restore public trust” in the platform after it censored the New York Post’s bombshell report about Hunter Biden’s laptop just weeks before the 2020 presidential election.

Musk told the paparazzi that he would no longer sign autographs after he landed in at Dulles International Airport Saturday night, TMZ reported.

“I want to be clear, I’m not doing any more signings ever again,” Musk said as he was surrounded by security guards.

The news comes after Musk said during a chat on Twitter Spaces Saturday afternoon that the risk to his security has increased in recent months.

Musk told listeners that he would “definitely” not “be doing any open-air car parades, let me put it that way,” Musk said. “Frankly the risk of something bad happening to me, or even literally being shot, is quite significant.”

“It’s not that hard to kill somebody if you wanted to, so hopefully they don’t, and fate smiles upon the situation with me and it does not happen,” he added. “There’s definitely some risk there.”

House Republican Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio and other GOP lawmakers have reportedly begun drafting a bill prohibiting federal employees from using Tiktok after federal communication officials urged the U.S. government to ban the video-sharing app to protect American citizens’ private data.

A Republican aide familiar with the matter told the Daily Caller News Foundation that the House Judiciary Committee is proceeding with the proposal before GOP lawmakers officially hold the majority in the next Congress.

“We’re working on something right now,” the aide told the outlet.

Growing security concerns over the Chinese-based social media app have caught lawmakers’ attention after the Federal Communications Commission said the government agency could not regulate the social media app and the data flow back to Beijing and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

Chinese tech giant ByteDance owns TikTok, which currently has more than 200 million downloads in the United States — and according to Fox Business, the company must share its data with the CCP upon request, as required by the country’s 2017 National Intelligence Law.

TikTok officials responded to the FCC, saying the company remains confident that it’s on a path to reaching an agreement regarding national security concerns with the federal government.

However, leaked audio obtained by BuzzFeed News in June revealed that China had accessed U.S. TikTok user data for months while U.S. employees did not have access themselves. The audio covered more than 80 internal meetings at the social media company between September 2021 and January 2022.

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem ordered state government employees to stop using the app immediately last week, saying the officials would have “no part in the intelligence gathering operations of nations who hate us.”

“The Chinese Communist Party uses information that it gathers on TikTok to manipulate the American people, and they gather data off the devices that access the platform,” Noem said in a press release.

Other officials in South Dakota have previously sounded the alarm about the harm the app inflicts on American children and students.

“TikTok delivers garbage content to American students and educational content to Chinese students,” Congressman Dusty Johnson (R-SD) wrote on Twitter, reacting to a “60 Minutes” segment on the differences between content the app promotes in the U.S. vs. in China. “We cannot trust this company.”

Johnson introduced a bill in August to ban TikTok from collecting user data from American users from within the People’s Republic of China. The bill would also have banned TikTok from being downloaded on federal government devices, including military installations and federal agencies.

Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio and Wisconsin Republican Rep. Mike Gallagher introduced legislation last month to outright ban the app in the U.S., warning that CCP officials use the app “subtly indoctrinate American citizens.”

“TikTok is a major threat to U.S. national security,” the senators said, adding “unless TikTok and its algorithm can be separated from Beijing, the app’s use in the United States will continue to jeopardize our country’s safety and pave the way for a Chinese-influenced tech landscape here.”

Rubio said that “no company is truly private” in China.
