Quick Glance: Senate Passes Bill Requiring TikTok Sale Amid Ban Threat
- The Senate has passed a bill on Tuesday that would compel TikTok's China-based parent company to sell the social media platform or face a ban. This controversial move by U.S. lawmakers is expected to encounter legal challenges and disrupt the lives of content creators who depend on the short video app for their income.
- The legislation, part of a larger $95 billion package providing foreign aid to Ukraine and Israel, was passed 79-18. It now awaits President Joe Biden's signature after he expressed his intention to sign it the day after its passage.
- The revised bill extends ByteDance's deadline to sell TikTok to nine months, with a potential three-month extension if a sale is in progress. Additionally, the legislation prohibits the company from controlling TikTok's algorithm, a critical component that customizes user videos based on their interests and has contributed to making the platform a trendsetting phenomenon.
- The passage of the bill reflects bipartisan concerns in Washington regarding Chinese threats and TikTok's ownership, catering to 170 million American users. Lawmakers and officials have long worried about Chinese authorities potentially coercing ByteDance to disclose U.S. user data or manipulate American users through TikTok's content regulation.

Quick Glance: Twelve Jurors Seated in Trump's Hush Money Trial
- A jury of 12 individuals was empaneled on Thursday in the landmark hush money trial of former President Donald Trump, bringing the proceedings closer to opening arguments and the commencement of weeks filled with compelling testimonies.
- The upcoming trial is anticipated to present unfavorable testimonies regarding Trump's personal life pre-presidency, including accusations of manipulating business records to suppress narratives in the final days of the 2016 election surrounding his intimate relationships.

- The selection of the jury holds paramount significance in any criminal proceeding, particularly so when the accused is a former president and the presumed Republican candidate. Potential jurors have undergone extensive scrutiny concerning their online presence, personal backgrounds, and political stances as legal representatives and the judge meticulously scrutinize for partialities that could compromise their impartiality.

Quick Glance: Arizona Republicans foil another effort to repeal 1864 abortion ban
- Arizona House Republicans once again thwarted an attempt on Wednesday to repeal the state's nearly complete abortion ban from 1864, leaving Democrats without a vote on their repeal bill for the second consecutive week.
- Despite facing pressure from influential conservatives, such as former President Trump and Senate hopeful Kari Lake, urging GOP leaders to lift the ban, the Republicans blocked the repeal.
- State House Democrats made a procedural maneuver to attempt to suspend House rules and bring the repeal bill to the floor for discussion. However, this action was rejected by the GOP majority, with only one Republican, Representative Matt Gress, crossing party lines to support bringing up the repeal bill.
- A similar endeavor to repeal the ban was obstructed by Republicans last week. Following persistent criticism of the law by Democrats both within and outside the state throughout the week, prominent figures like Trump and Lake recognized the political risks and advocated for a change in direction within the Legislature.
