Trump is so pathetic. Can't stand, cant walk the steps, not Florida weather, what a sorry excuse for a human being, let along pretending to be some important person on the world stage. He is just a convicted and sentenced felon, sex offender, rapist, traitor.....

The most cryptic part of the TikTok saga is why Shou is so obsequious to Trump. Posting on TikTok, thanking him for things he didn't do and for things he says he "might" do. Becoming an ornament to the inauguration. ???

My favorite thing to come of out Tik Tok is finding your account. You do a fabulous job providing the news quickly and effectively. I love that that you’re an independent journalist and excited to support your endeavors.

If someone buys TikTok, it still won't be the same. Especially if the new owner is controlling the content.

I agree! I feel if someone buys it under the incoming Admin - TikTok is going to become a MAGA machine - just another Truth Social or X

I think I don’t want another z or M owning it. They just want to control and rape it of free flowing information. They want us but we don’t want them.

I love your perspective, Aaron. This retired educator finds great hope for our nation in brilliant and courageous young people like you.

This was all a stunt by Shou, Zuckerberg, META, Trump and Musk. They were always in kahoots with each other. This 24 going dark, is just a cover up so that they can join with META. Like Biden said, TikTok is safe. There’s no reason to go dark other than to change the app. It was never about the people, the algorithm, or our data. We were bamboozled, and all of our efforts were futile. I hate it here!

Thank you for reporting. We have become a land where factual news is difficult to non existent. You are my primary news source. Guess what-I am a boomer.

Thank you for everything. Your news is keeping me informed and clinging to the only ounce of sanity I can find with everything going on. You introducing me to this app cannot be thanked enough. Keep fighting the good fight sir.
