Summary

Former federal prosecutor Joyce Vance suggests the Supreme Court may reject Donald Trump’s recent legal filing supporting TikTok amid an upcoming U.S. ban.

Trump’s brief emphasizes his own use of TikTok, claiming it as a vital platform for political expression.

Legal expert Vance criticized the filing as self-serving and noted Trump’s representation by John Sauer, his former Solicitor General nominee.

The case concerns whether U.S. companies can continue hosting TikTok after the ban, but Vance doubts the Court will entertain what she describes as a “kleptocratic” move.

    They’ll do what they always do, find some MAGA Lite mini-Fettermans. Because the only other people who might run are brain-dead triangulating centrists or progressives, and the corporate moneybags hate the progressives more than they hate fascists.
