Donald Trump had asked the Supreme Court to delay TikTok’s ban-or-sale law to give him an opportunity to act once he returns to the White House.

The Supreme Court unanimously found the new law that could lead to a ban of TikTok does not violate the First Amendment rights of the platform or its users.

Political shifts and legal hurdles have delayed TikTok's removal, with Biden reportedly kicking the issue to Trump.

The U.S. Supreme Court officially upheld the law to ban the TikTok social media app on Friday.

Some TikTok users broke down in tears and engaged in profanity-laced rants after the Supreme Court upheld a law to ban the social media app if it is not sold.

The Supreme Court ruled that the TikTok divest-or-ban law is constitutional

With the ban upheld by the Supreme Court and the Biden administration leaving, TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew is banking on Trump to save the app in the US.

The company argued that the law, citing potential Chinese threats to the nation’s security, violated its First Amendment rights and those of its 170 million users.

A new video going viral shows the CEO of TikTok, Shou Zi Chew, thanking President-elect Trump for his efforts in trying to delay the nationwide ban on the platform.

The platform has until Sunday to cut ties with its China-based parent ByteDance or shut down its US operation to resolve concerns it posed a threat to national security.
