Remember That TikTok Ban? This Week's Deadline Brings Talk of a Deal

As talks about TikTok's fate in the US pushed up against an imminent deadline, President Donald Trump has moved the target date yet again. An executive order issued Tuesday by the White House, titled "Further Extending the TikTok Enforcement Ban," sets Dec. 16 as the new date through which the Justice Department will refrain from enforcing a law that could have shut down the wildly popular social media app in the US.

Trump's willingness to let TikTok 'go dark' motivated China to make deal, Bessent says

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Tuesday that President Donald Trump was willing to let TikTok cease operating in the U.S., and that it was "what turned the tide" in the deal framework with China. "President Trump made it clear that he would have been willing to let Tiktok go dark, that we were not going to give up national security in favor of the deal," Bessent told CNBC's "Squawk Box."
