Former president Donald Trump is digging in against a potential ban of TikTok moving through Congress — and seeking to blame President Biden for it — even though Trump sought to outlaw the social media application when he was in the White House. “Just so everyone knows, especially the young people, Crooked Joe Biden is […]
