Quick Glance: What Lies Ahead for TikTok in the US?

The US Senate has unanimously approved a bill that could potentially lead to the banning of TikTok within nine months, unless its Chinese owner, ByteDance, withdraws from the video-sharing app due to concerns about national security threats.

President Joe Biden has confirmed his intention to sign the legislation on Wednesday.

ByteDance acquired the well-known karaoke app Musical.ly and rebranded it as TikTok back in 2017. It has become one of the fastest-growing applications in the United States, boasting 150 million monthly subscribers.

Congress approves bill banning TikTok unless Chinese owner ByteDance sells platform

ft.com/content/d84df824-19c0-4105-ae95-816dd0618efb

Quick Glance: Potential Buyers for TikTok Revealed

The clock is ticking for TikTok to find a new owner. President Joe Biden signed a law that could ban TikTok in the US unless ByteDance sells the app. Possible buyers range from tech companies to retailers and investment bankers.

Established tech giants like Meta or Google are unlikely buyers due to antitrust hurdles. Large companies with deep pockets face regulatory skepticism, although they could have the resources to purchase TikTok.

Microsoft, which has shown interest in TikTok in the past, may have another opportunity after successfully navigating antitrust scrutiny with the Activision Blizzard deal. Oracle and former US government officials like Steven Mnuchin are also potential buyers.

Mnuchin has announced assembling a team of investors to acquire TikTok. His offer, however, might exclude TikTok's algorithm, sparking controversial discussions. Other potential buyers like Kevin O'Leary are also considering acquiring TikTok, with O'Leary suggesting an initial bid between $20 and $30 billion.

Quick Glance: Trial Judge Evaluates Trump's Compliance with Gag Order

Former President Trump is on trial in New York for hush money issues. David Pecker from 'National Enquirer' testified about an agreement to manipulate stories about Trump and his rivals.

Concerns arose about Trump's violation of the gag order by criticizing court members. Mary McCord explained how the administration of justice can be disrupted by defendants' statements, leading to legal restrictions.

Despite reluctance to detain a former president, fines may be imposed for attacks on witnesses and judicial families. Threats to security and witness testimonies pose serious challenges to the trial's integrity.

Judges emphasize the importance of upholding justice by addressing threats and ensuring the safety of those involved in legal proceedings. The credibility of the trial hinges on maintaining a fair and secure environment.

Quick Glance: Rams legend Roman Gabriel dies at age 83

Roman Gabriel, one of pro football's best quarterbacks during the 1960s, passed away at the age of 83, as announced by his son.

In 1962, Gabriel was the No. 1 overall pick in the AFL Draft and the No. 2 overall pick in the NFL Draft. Opting to join the Rams instead of the Raiders proved to be a beneficial decision for the franchise.

Gabriel, along with the Rams' Fearsome Foursome defensive line, led Los Angeles to an impressive record in the '60s, including two division titles.

Despite not being in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Gabriel's career surpasses many quarterbacks in Canton, Ohio. He still holds the Rams' career record with 154 touchdown passes.
