The SCOTUS upholds a ban. Biden said Friday that he wouldn't enforce the ban. Then, for some reason (sarcasm), TikTok goes offline with a note to users saying Trump will fix it. Tomorrow Trump gets to "fix it." Everybody cheers.

All a big show. Shades of the inauguration of 1979. I wouldn't be surprised to see a flashy release of I/P prisoners tomorrow.

Just billionaires playing with people.
