What he’s saying is what he stated the final time: he’s instructing Lawyer Common Pam Bondi to not implement the regulation, and pinky-swearing that U.S. corporations which are breaking the regulation to maintain TikTok out there (Akamai, Oracle, Google, Apple) received’t be held chargeable for it. It’s only a full abdication of the rule of regulation.”
