Heartbroken TikTokers are going cuckoo. Users of the now defunct social app nationwide are mourning its loss early Sunday, after the popular video-sharing platform went dark for its 170 million American users in the face of a legal US ban. “ITS GONE TIKTOK IS GONE,” one user posted to X with a gif of someone nervously smoking. A podcaster with more than 1.8 followers named iJustine helped lead the hysteria on X: “It’s been 15 minutes and I’m already going through TikTok withdrawals. THIS IS A CRIME.” (X Video) Mikayla Nogueira, a makeup influencer with 16 million TikTok followers, said she keeps clicking to open the app out of habit

In a surprising move, just minutes before President Donald Trump was officially sworn in for his second term, FBI Director Paul Abbate announced his retirement. The timing of his departure, coinciding with the beginning of a new administration, raised eyebrows, particularly given the ongoing scrutiny surrounding the FBI’s actions during the last eight years. Abbate, who had served as deputy director before taking the helm, left behind a bureau at the center of political controversy, leaving many to wonder about the potential implications for the agency under the incoming administration.

Mark Milley, and members of the January 6 committee on Monday as one of his last acts, as well as blanket pardons for multiple members of his own family.

Donald Trump is the 47th president of the United States.

buzzing at dad’s inauguration: ‘Future president’ 8 replies
President Donald Trump’s youngest son, Barron, was tough to miss in the Capitol Rotunda for his father’s inauguration ceremony, but it was where he was standing that drew particular attention.
A video circulating online shows the 6-foot, 7-inch Trump scion positioned nearly perfectly behind the podium bearing the presidential seal, appearing stoic and poised in a dark tailored suit complete with an American flag lapel pin.
The clip shows the 18-year-old surveying the crowd, and offering a polite smile and wave to an unseen audience member like a politician in waiting, a marble statue of Ulysses S. Grant in the background adding gravitas to the imagery.
January 6th political prisoners have been languishing in prisons across America for the past four years, many without a trial. Many of them never had a criminal record, many never committed a single act of violence, including on January 6, 2021, and most of them have had their lives destroyed by the Democrat Party machine’s punishing injustice system.

A Presidential Pardon does not take effect unless the suspect accepts it. That according to a little known, 1915 ruling from the Supreme Court, once accepted, the pardon serves as an “imputation of guilt,” or what’s more commonly known as an admission. Because accepting the pardon is “essential to it’s validity,” I am demanding the Biden family, Dr. Fauci, Gen. Mark Milley, the members of the J6 Committee and everyone else Biden unsurprisingly pardoned declare their acceptance of the pardon publicly. Because, according to the Supreme Court, it would also serve as a declaration of guilt.
Minutes after President Donald Trump's inaugural address ended, the CBP One app used by the Biden administration to allow nearly a million illegal aliens to enter the United States was heavily changed. As of now, folks can do things like check border crossing wait times, request an inspection of agricultural or biological products, or submit a manifest for bus travelers, but illegal aliens cannot use it essentially receive blanket humanitarian parole.

President Biden granted pardons to several prominent public servants Monday who have faced attacks from President-elect Trump in one of his final acts in office. Biden issued pardons for Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases who led the nation’s COVID-19 pandemic response, and retired Gen. Mark Milley, former chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The president also pardoned members and staff of the House committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack in addition to the U.S. Capitol Police and D.C. Metropolitan police officers who testified before the Select Committee.
As we all knew would happen, Biden’s last act was to pardon every bad actor in his administration. This is hypocritical, to say the least, given his government’s vindictive pursuit of everyone in the Trump administration, including Trump himself. However, even worse than that, it sets a dangerous precedent that can destroy the American Constitution—and no, I’m not exaggerating.
So, here’s the top line from Fox News:
"President Biden pardoned Dr. Anthony Fauci, Gen. Mark Milley, and others who some speculated may have faced investigations under the incoming Trump administration on Monday.
Biden's pardons come just hours before he is set to depart

other relatives for unspecified crimes
before leaving office 27 replies
President Joe Biden pardoned his brother James Biden and other relatives Monday for unspecified crimes, a similar last-minute move to protect his family from potential investigation as when he pardoned his son Hunter Biden for gun and tax convictions.
The president said he pardoned his brother and other relatives − his sister Sara Jones Biden, his sister Valerie Biden Owens and her husband John Owens, and another brother, Francis Biden − because of concerns about "baseless and politically motivated investigations wreak havoc on the lives, safety, and financial security of targeted individuals and their families," he said in a statement released minutes before the end of his term.
Literally minutes before he leaves office, Joe Biden just issued blanket pardons for his closest family. Having previously pardoned Hunter Biden, the departing executive just pardoned his brothers, James and Frank, along with his sister Valerie, and their spouses.
The Biden family crime syndicate, those who engaged in the benefit of Joe Biden selling the influence of his office for financial gain, are attempting to preemptively pardon themselves from any investigation or prosecution of their criminal conduct.(snip)Recent legal debate has surrounded the issue of a prosecutor who may bring an indictment against a person after they have been issued a pardon.
