Now we're on to the meat of the situation; did the government violate the order. The DOJ is now arguing that the written order issued 40 minutes later supersedes anything said orally, and says that the DOJ "on good faith" only viewed the written order as binding, not what Boasberg said in court.

TikTok's genuflection towards Donald Trump has ironically proven the point of everybody who wanted it banned in the first place. The site was always sympathetic to autocrats. It just turned out that China's autocrats weren't the only ones it was sympathetic to.

I watched so many people, men, rant and rave on TikTok tonight about the government having their boots on the necks of American citizens. No one remembers Roe? The subsequent enslavement of pregnant women and girls by their state governments? Did people think they were immune to government overreach
