Quick Glance: Measures Against TikTok: Biden Sets Deadline for Sale
  • President Biden has signed legislation requiring ByteDance to fully divest from TikTok within a year or potentially face a nationwide ban.

  • TikTok plans to take legal action against the Biden administration, citing concerns that the law could impede the free speech of millions of Americans.

Ashley Biden's Diary—Everything We Know
Quick Glance: Conviction for Theft and Sale of Biden's Daughter's Diary
  • A Florida mother was sentenced to a month in prison and three months of home confinement for stealing and selling President Joe Biden’s daughter’s diary to the conservative group Project Veritas four years ago.

  • Judge Laura Taylor Swain at the Manhattan federal court called the actions of the Palm Beach, Florida woman 'despicable'.

  • In August 2022, Harris pleaded guilty to a conspiracy charge, admitting to receiving $20,000 of the $40,000 paid by Project Veritas for personal items of the president's daughter, Ashley Biden.

  • Swain noted that Harris and a co-defendant, Robert Kurlander from nearby Jupiter, Florida, had initially tried unsuccessfully to sell Ashley Biden’s belongings to then-President Donald Trump’s 2020 presidential campaign.
