17.01.2025 ⇢ Day of Three Farewells: TikTok, Gaza War, Oval Office
⌨
The Supreme Court unanimously upheld legislation requiring TikTok's sale or ban, setting Sunday as the deadline. ByteDance's ownership became a convergence point for rare bipartisan agreement, though neither party claimed ownership of the consequences.
Israel's security cabinet, followed by the full cabinet, approved the Gaza ceasefire agreement after day-long deliberations. The deal, reportedly brokered by New York real estate developer Steve Witkoff, includes phased hostage releases starting Sunday.
Biden marked his departure with mass clemency for 2,500 nonviolent drug offenders and an attempt to declare the ERA ratified, drawing criticism from legal experts. Trump's transition team announced the inauguration's move to the Capitol Rotunda due to extreme cold, limiting attendance. The decision came as forecasts warned of a polar vortex affecting much of the country, potentially complicating both the ceremony and ongoing Los Angeles fire recovery efforts.
