🚨TUCKER CARLSON: "(Suchir Balaji, the OpenAI whistleblower) was quoted as saying OpenAI was committing crime and a month later that was dead?"
SUCHIR BALAJI'S MOTHER: "That's not just it. The New York Times named my son as the Custodian Witness. Custodian Witness is very important; he had the documents against OpenAI. That was on the 18th. On the 22nd he just came back from vacation from LA and Catalina Island the same night. They have attacked him and killed him."
🇺🇸 TRUMP PLOTS TIKTOK RESCUE WITH EXECUTIVE ORDER
Trump is reportedly cooking up an executive order to delay the sale-or-ban law on TikTok for 60-90 days.
Trump has made it clear he doesn’t want TikTok gone—he loves the app, where his videos have racked up nearly 4 billion views; he even met TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew at Mar-a-Lago last month.
Legal experts aren’t impressed, and one even likened the executive order to “a press release on fancy paper” since it wouldn’t override a bipartisan law that demands TikTok’s sale by Jan. 19.
ByteDance has doubled down on its refusal to sell, leaving few realistic options.
Is TikTok a bargaining chip for bigger U.S.-China trade negotiations? Maybe.
For now, Trump’s goal is clear: paint himself as the ultimate dealmaker he is and take a victory lap on the platform he loves.
