President Donald Trump began his second administration with a blitz of policy actions to reorient U.S. government priorities.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order banning “federal censorship” of online speech. Some fear it will make social media more toxic.

The order alleges that the government infringed on US citizens' free speech "under the guise of combatting 'misinformation,' 'disinformation,' and 'malinformation.'"

Within hours of his inauguration, President Donald Trump issued an executive order suspending the enforcement of a TikTok ban that had taken effect the previous day. The move tossed a lifeline to TikTok -- and its 170 million users in the United States.

Legal experts said despite Trump's order, service providers and app distributors such as Google and Apple still face major uncertainty and potential massive financial liability for defying a law that banned TikTok in the United States unless Chinese parent ByteDance divested the company by Jan.
