TikTok now has until September to find a new owner in order to meet the requirements of a divest-or-ban law.

During his first term, Trump banned TikTok by executive order, arguing it was a potential tool of a foreign adversary, China. Courts thwarted that ban. The law was passed last year and was set to take effect as Trump began his second presidential term.

U.S. President Donald Trump will extend a June 19 deadline for China-based ByteDance to divest the U.S. assets of short video app TikTok for 90 days despite a law that mandated a sale or shutdown absent significant progress, the White House said on Tuesday.
