The president-elect backed TikTok in a Truth Social post Friday as he tries to halt the law from taking effect.

The president-elect has filed a request with the Supreme Court to pause the enforcement of a law that could ban TikTok in the U.S.

President-elect Donald Trump requested that the Supreme Court suspend the TikTok ban until after he takes office while he works on a political resolution. University of Minnesota Law School associate professor Alan Rozenshtein breaks down the legal basis for the request.
