A month ago the FBI posted this on Linkedin. Good luck attracting new agents now, in an era where legal protections that keep FBI personnel from being fired are ignored--because they worked on prosecutions on a matter that touched on the new president's "interests." www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

An executive order cannot supersede a statute. Congress has found ByteDance a danger to national security and SCOTUS has upheld it. Trump’s job as of noon tomorrow is to “take care that the laws be faithfully executed.” That means enforcing the ban until ByteDance sells TikTok.
