TikTok Ban Live Updates: CEO Attends Trump’s Inauguration—After Trump Vows To ‘Save’ App

TikTok CEO Shou Chew attended President Donald Trump's inauguration, as the app faces a nationwide ban due to national security concerns over its Chinese ownership.
President Trump pledged to extend the deadline for TikTok's sale, allowing more time for the company to find a new owner under the law.
The Supreme Court upheld the law requiring ByteDance to sell its U.S. TikTok business by January 19, or face a ban, which has significant implications for its 170 million users.
Legislators are divided on the extension, with some pushing for a delay while others assert that it raises legal issues for companies hosting the app.
