Trump delays TikTok ban in US for third time, signs order for 90 days reprieve
US President Donald Trump Thursday signed an executive order delaying the ban or forced sale of TikTok in the United States for a third time, granting the Chinese-owned social media company another 90 days to find a buyer or face a nationwide ban.
'I've just signed the Executive Order extending the Deadline for the TikTok closing for 90 days (September 17, 2025),' the President announced in a post on Truth Social.
Trump's first executive order on TikTok was issued on his first day back in office, just three days after the US Supreme Court upheld the federal ban. He followed up with a second order in April, extending the deadline to 19 June. With this latest move, TikTok now has until September to secure a sale or risk being banned from operating in the country.

Pakistani Reporter Schooled on Kashmir as US Says Trump Respects India's Right to Decide Its Future A Pakistani journalist tried to corner US State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce by questioning whether President Trump needs Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'permission' to bring peace to South Asia by resolving the Kashmir issue. The response was swift and sharp. Bruce reiterated the United States' long-standing position of respecting a sovereign nation's right to decide its own future, clearly stating that President Trump supports countries like India making their own decisions—without third-party interference. The journalist's attempt to revive the old mediation narrative fell flat, echoing India's firm stance on no third-party mediation. Watch this clip as the U.S. once again backs India's sovereignty and the journalist is left red-faced.#pmmodi #donaldtrump #kashmirmediation #usindiapak #tammybruce #moditrump #indiausrelations #pakistanjournalist #kashmirissue #indiasovereignty #trumpmodi #southasiapolitics #toi #toibharat #bharat #breakingnews #indianews 1.8K views | 1 day ago
