Executive Orders\">continue operating<\/a> in the United States. Trump stated that he woudl speak with Chinese President Xi Jinping to finalize the agreement, which he described as beneficial for both countries and different from previous deals. The deal reportedly involves ByteDance, TikTok&#8217;s Chinese parent company, owning less than 20% of the app, with restrictions preventing the Chinese government from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/tiktok-is-collecting-u-s-biometric-data-for-china\/\" title=\"TikTok Is Collecting U.S. Biometric Data for China\">accessing user data<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This announcement comes after a 2024 law, passed during Joe Biden&#8217;s presidency, required TikTok to divest from ByteDance or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/70000-self-employed-truckers-in-california-face-shutdown-under-new-state-law\/\" title=\"70,000 Self-Employed Truckers in California Face Shutdown Under New State Law\">face shutdown<\/a> in the U.S. Trump delayed enforcing this <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >shutdown multiple times due<\/a> to TikTok&#8217;s popularity among younger Americans. He emphasized that many parents urged him to keep the app operational for their children. The announcement follows recent comments by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confirming that a deal framework had been established. The impending TikTok ban&#8217;s enforcement has now likely been postponed due to this growth. <br \/> <!DOCTYPE html><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Trump confirms TikTok deal with China<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2231748\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Donald Trump<\/a> announced Tuesday that his administration reached a deal with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/china\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">China <\/a>to allow the social media platform <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/tiktok\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TikTok<\/a> to continue operating in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We have a deal on TikTok.
