TikTok CEO Invited to Dais at Trump's Inauguration Amid Security Concerns
Jan 16, 2025, 01:14 PM
TikTok CEO Shou Chew plans to attend President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration on January 20. He has been invited to sit on the dais in a position of honor, where former presidents, family members, and other important guests are traditionally seated. Other tech leaders such as Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, and Jeff Bezos are also expected to attend. TikTok, owned by China's ByteDance, faces a potential ban in the United States, and Trump's advisers are considering options to delay or stop the ban. Trump, who has 14 million TikTok followers, is reportedly considering issuing an executive order to temporarily halt the TikTok ban for 60-90 days upon taking office. Some U.S. politicians, including Frank Pallone, have criticized the invitation, citing national security concerns over TikTok's links to the Chinese Communist Party.
