Trump comments on TikTok ban
Just ahead of today's Supreme Court ruling -- which saw the nation's highest court uphold the law banning TikTok in the U.S. as of January 19 -- Donald
Trump earlier signaled that he is no longer in favor of the ban, after urging the Supreme Court to block the law requiring the app to be shut down or sold by January 19, but in his message today he said that he would make a decision the future, but first needed “time to review the situation.” He also said that the Supreme Court’s decision was “expected.” Ahead of the ruling, Trump had also written on Truth Social that he had a good call with Xi this morning and that it was his expectation that they would “solve many problems together,” starting immediately. It’s unclear if TikTok will effectively go dark on January 19 or if it will continue to operate on users’ devices where it’s already installed, as there have been reports pointing to both scenarios.
