And at 10:35pm ET on Saturday night, TikTok shut off US feed itself. Claiming that Biden banned it & shut it down. Here’s the message.

Capcut works just fine: it’s a video editor. You just can’t post to TikTok from the US right now. You can post to anything owned by Meta however. It’s a stunt. Biden signed a *request * it be taken off US and not till 1/20. TikTok is down instead & posted that Trump (all hail?) will reinstate it.
