| 0:00.0 | Here we go. On Friday, the Supreme Court ruled in a unanimous decision that TikTok must sever its ties with the Chinese government or be shut down tomorrow. |
| 0:13.3 | The court sided with the government rejecting TikTok's argument that the protecting Americans from foreign adversaryversary Controlled Applications Act |
| 0:22.8 | violates that corporation's First Amendment rights. |
| 0:27.8 | President Biden signed that ban into law in April of 2024. |
| 0:33.4 | As I said on the last show, the bill grants the president power to issue a 90-day grace period |

| 2:27.5 | to shut down tomorrow. President Biden and Donald Trump during his first administration, both presidents |
