Trump is using this, though. And, you frickers are running with it, while having to do "critical research" to validate he's indeed not breaking the law.

would love to see where Trump has the authority to override a law, one that has been upheld by the USSC


That's all BS now. Didn't you see what happened with Biden and the Student loan forgiveness after the Supreme Court ruling. It all a facade. At this point Congress is just a way for these people to make money. Get rid of Congress, the people elect a President to get things done not have Congress hold things up while they get rich from taking bribes

You’re so wrong. It was TikTok who said since the USSC ruled this way we will be ceasing operations on the 19th. They still have 90 days from that decision.

stop melting and saying shite that’s wrong.

But what happens after 90 days? Will Congress need to pass another law? On the heels of this one they just passed?
Seems like a lot of legislators would need to do a complete 180 from the votes they just cast weeks earlier.

That's helpful, stout. I hope Trump's order meets the exception provisions.

That's what I was wanting to learn about this situation. Thanks.

Using what? The law as voted on by Congress? You were melting saying he was ignoring the law a minute ago. Now that you know he is following the law that is not good enough for you?

I never said he was ignoring a law??

I can't stand the constant political grandstanding he did during his last term.

This type of shite causes political concerns.

And my point is that he's letting this all seem like he's saving us when a third of our government came together to vote to ban Tik-Tok.

That's my problem. It's Trump v/s the USA again.

You people would be screaming at the sky if Trump were about to shut off TikTok and then Biden saved them.

My goodness. It turns out Trump is friendlier to the CCP than Biden is. Crazy that we're rooting for this.

My understanding it allows for a one-time 90 day extension to allow for the sale. The guy who wrote the legislation was on Fox this morning and said its a one-time only provision to allow a grace period for the transaction to be completed. They are not entitled to another one.

Barring that TikTok will have to be divested or go dark in the U.S.

No. It never was. If thats the case why didn't the Bill ban Temu and other Chinese companies? This is all about Free Speech and controlling the Narrative. If Trump lost the Election they would of done the same thing to X just like Brazil did.

How is he grandstanding looking into an issue that affects the income of many people and hurts many businesses?

Whole businesses (not just influencers) have been built using Tiktok. There is one guy from Louisiana I watched who now lives with his wife up in WI who got his BBQ pit building business off the ground solely because of Tiktok.

Chiasson Smoke


He is one of thousands. How is Trump trying to resolve this issue grandstanding in your pea brain?

So you're a firm supporter of "two wrongs make a right"??

That figures since you're a proven liar and hypocrite.
