Congress's goal was never to ban TikTok. It was to allow Americans to use the app safe from Chinese Communist Party control. Today, the Supreme Court unanimously upheld that effort while soundly rejecting TikTok's Orwellian position that protecting the First Amendment somehow violates the First Amendment.
Had ByteDance spent as much time pursuing a divestment as it had trying to manipulate our political system, the threat of TikTok vanishing on Sunday would not exist. If the app goes dark, ByteDance will have no one to blame but itself.
Now, the only obstacles preventing Americans from using TikTok are Xi Jinping and the CCP. The incoming Trump administration has the opportunity to negotiate the deal of a century, force a sale to a non-foreign adversary buyer, and save TikTok for Americans.
