How Pro-Israel Billionaires Seized TikTok to Control Your Mind

Double Down News exposes the 2026 forced divestment of TikTok’s US operations, revealing how control of its algorithm shifted to a consortium of billionaires with deep ties to the Israeli military and government. Key players include Oracle’s Larry Ellison and Safra Catz (major Friends of the IDF donors who have provided tech and direct support to Israel’s military), private equity backers funding West Bank settlements, Yuri Milner, and Michael Dell’s family office supplying IT to the IDF. The video details post-takeover censorship spikes—flagging “Free Palestine,” treating “Zionist” as hate speech in certain contexts, and purging critical content—while amplifying pro-Israel narratives, framing the move as a coordinated response to TikTok’s earlier organic surge in pro-Palestinian solidarity among young Americans.
