Supreme Court Clears Way for TikTok Ban

The White House has just released a statement following the Supreme Court’s decision.

Press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre stresses that President Biden’s position on TikTok has been that it should be available in the United States, but under American ownership or ownership that addresses national security concerns.

“President Biden’s position on TikTok has been clear for months, including since Congress sent a bill in overwhelming, bipartisan fashion to the President’s desk,” she says in the statement.

Jean-Pierre says, “given the sheer fact of timing”, the actions to implement the law will fall to President-elect Donald Trump’s administration.

Trump will be sworn into office on Monday.
