SUMMARY: TikTok is suing the U.S. government to block a law that would force the app to be divested from its Chinese parent company or face a ban in the country. The law gives ByteDance 270 days to sell TikTok to a U.S. company or face a ban from American networks and app stores. TikTok argues that a “qualified divestiture” is not possible and would lead to the shutdown of the app in the U.S., affecting millions of daily users. The lawsuit claims that the law violates the First Amendment, as it forces the app to be separated from its parent company.

SUMMARY: The Chancellor of the University of Mississippi has promised an investigation into student conduct after racial slurs were used during a pro-Palestine demonstration. One student has been removed from the Phi Delta Theta fraternity for making racial gestures. Witnesses are shocked at how quickly racial slurs were used. The protest, which took place near a statue of the first Black man to integrate the university, led to disruptions and disrespectful behavior. The university is committed to supporting free expression and peaceful assembly, but disciplinary action may be taken against offending students. Overall, the incident has caused harm and set back efforts to erase the university's troubled past.
