It is too early to tell.

You do not have to download a new app, and ByteDance will still be licensing its powerful recommendation algorithm to the American TikTok.

But the new ownership will have the power to moderate content on the app, deciding which videos to leave up or take down.

That's raised concerns among some experts and TikTok users that the new owners could try to influence what people see, potentially showing more posts aligned with the Trump administration's views.

Today in Minnesota.

Hundreds of businesses are expected to close across the state as part of a general strike in protest of the Trump administration's ramped up immigration enforcement.

It comes as Minnesotans have been pushing back for weeks on the surge of federal agents there.

The government has sent as many as 3,000, and their operation has led to thousands of arrests and at least two shootings, including the killing of Renee Good by an ICE officer.

Local officials have called the deployment an invasion, as agents have fanned out in neighborhoods and used aggressive tactics, breaking car windows and deploying pepper spray in people's faces.

At one point, they dragged a man, who turned out to be a U.S.

citizen, out of his house in his underwear in the snow.

In another case that's gotten national attention this week, they detained a 5-year-old boy as he was coming home from pre-K with his dad.

School officials said he was the fourth child in the district to be detained recently.

With the state on edge, Vice President J.D.

Vance traveled to the Twin Cities yesterday.

Vance said that he thought federal agents were doing a, quote, incredible job and that the unrest in the city was the result of a failure of cooperation by state and local officials.

In another update on the protests, the Justice Department arrested three people over a demonstration at a church in St.

Paul after they went there to demand that one of the pastors resign, believing he works for ICE.

It's a rare instance of the federal government directing the arrests of nonviolent protesters.

President Trump wrote online that he'd seen footage of them interrupting the church service, saying, quote, "...they are troublemakers who should be thrown in jail or thrown out of the country."
