Trump posted to his Truth Social platform Sunday at 10 a.m. ET, “I’m asking companies not to let TikTok stay dark!,” and adding that he would issue an executive order Monday. 

“I would like the U.S. to have a 50% ownership position in a joint venture,” he wrote. “By doing this, we save TikTok, keep it in good hands, and allow it to stay up. Without U.S. approval, there is no Tik Tok.  With our approval, it is worth hundreds of billions of dollars—maybe trillions.” 

Restoration of access to TikTok in the U.S. began around noon ET Sunday, and at 12:27 p.m., the company made a point of thanking President Trump on X.

Later that day, the platform began alerting advertisers that ad campaigns targeting audiences in the U.S. would resume delivering ads Sunday. 

TikTok cautioned that there would be “certain limitations” on live campaigns, and it also warned of the potential of “temporary service instability that may affect advertising in the U.S.”
