Trump Grants TikTok 75 Day Extension on US Sell-Off

- The Supreme Court upheld the TikTok sell-off bill, requiring the app to shut down on January 19th, but Trump's assurances have led Oracle to continue supporting it.
- The House and Senate voted overwhelmingly to ban TikTok, with a combined vote of 431 to 83, indicating significant concerns about the app.
- Despite the extension, legal experts believe it may not be legally binding, leaving TikTok's future in the U.S. Uncertain.
