The Supreme Court holds that strict scrutiny does NOT apply to the TikTok ban, applying intermediate scrutiny instead.  And the court relies SOLELY on Congress' argument that TikTok gives the Chinese govt access to private data, declining to endorse the “covert manipulation of content” rational.

A brand new principle of constitutional law, unfolding before our eyes: It is unconstitutional (!) for Congress to enact a law that happens to take effect one day before the next president is inaugurated, at least if he's named Trump. www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/ 24...  [image]

How Donald Trump went from backing a TikTok ban in 2020 to backing off in 2024, as he became a political star on the platform with more than 14.7M followers

In 2020, he moved to ban the Chinese-owned app.  Now, he is opposing the Biden administration's effort to do just that.

Trump's TikTok brief just fundamentally doesn't make sense: How could SCOTUS freeze the Jan. 19 deadline on the grounds that Trump might ... unlawfully suspend it when he gets into office?  Rewrite the law now so Trump can break it later?  The ask here is incoherent. www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/ 24... …
