Trump Administration sued over TikTok deal
(CNN)– A new group of anti-corruption lawyers is suing over the deal that keeps TikTok operating in the U.S.
The lawsuit from the Public Integrity Project argues that the Trump Administration is violating a bipartisan 2024 law.
It bans TikTok in the U.S., barring its sale to a non-Chinese company.
A group of investors now controls the app but Bytedance still owns part of it.
The lawsuit claims that’s not good enough.
It seeks fines and a potential new deal but not TikTok’s removal from U.S. app stores.
