TikTok is warning users Saturday that the app will be temporarily unavailable when the impending U.S. ban goes in effect Sunday.

"We're working to restore our service in the U.S. as soon as possible," the company said in a pop-up on the app.

The popular video-sharing app, used by 170 million Americans, went dark late Saturday after TikTok’s Chinese-owned parent company announced that they will make their services “temporarily unavailable.”

TikTok arrived in the U.S. almost 6 1/2 years ago. The possibility the U.S. would outlaw the video-sharing app has kept influencers and users in anxious limbo for more than four of the years since then.

Users in the U.S. who opened the app were greeted with a message that read, "Sorry, TikTok isn't available right now."

The app had more than 170 million monthly users in the U.S. The black-out is the result of a law forcing the service offline unless it sheds its ties to ByteDance, its China-based parent company.

TikTok’s app was prominent removed from app stores on Saturday evening just before as a federal law that bans the popular social media platform went into effect.

TikTok Goes Dark in the U.S.

The truce between Israel and Hamas was set to begin in the morning. The first Israeli hostages were to be released hours later in exchange for Palestinian prisoners.

The popular video app stopped working shortly before a federal law barring U.S. companies from hosting or distributing TikTok was set to take effect on Sunday.

Israel’s military has set up sites to receive hostages while aid groups prepare to use the cease-fire to increase deliveries into Gaza.

The Israeli prime minister said the cease-fire would not begin until Hamas handed over names of hostages to be released Sunday. The group said the delay was technical.

The deadline for the start of a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip has passed. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said it would not begin until Hamas provides the names of the three hostages it was set to release later on Sunday in exchange for scores of Palestinian prisoners.

A deal between Israel and Hamas was scheduled to take effect this morning. But it wasn’t immediately clear if it would happen on time.

The party of Israel’s hard-line National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir says its Cabinet ministers submitted their resignations from the government on Sunday in opposition to the Gaza ceasefire deal.

Israel said it was still attacking in the enclave because Hamas had not yet handed over names of hostages to be released on Sunday. Hamas said the delay was technical.

Donald Trump’s inauguration as the 47th president is expected to be an extravagant break from tradition.

Tomorrow Donald Trump will take the oath of office again. By spurning economic populism and embracing Bush-era Republicans, Democrats helped pave the way for his second inauguration.

The first stage of a truce between Israel and Hamas prompted celebrations in Gaza and hope for an end to the 15-month war.

A ceasefire in the Gaza Strip has taken hold, raising hopes for an end to the devastating 15-month Israel-Hamas war and the release of dozens of militant-held hostages.

What began in January 2017 as the “Women’s March” morphed into a smorgasbord of liberal, progressive, and socialist groups rebranded as the “People’s March” ahead of President-Elect Donald Trump’s inauguration. Despite broadening protest group categories, the rally failed to muster the size of the initial Women’s March before Trump’s first swearing-in ceremony eight years ago. “Anti-Trump was the only thing the groups seemed to have in common.

Romi Gonen, Emily Damari and Doron Steinbrecher were named as the first 3 people who would be released on Sunday — as officials expect 30 more hostages to be released from Hamas captivity, but a timeline was not announced on the releases.

“There aren’t that many people left in America who have something nice to say about Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi is one of them,” Alexandra Pelosi said.

Both Democrats and Republicans now claim that Mexico has become a back door for Chinese goods to enter the United States. There’s little evidence for it, but that hasn’t stopped the US from bullying its southern neighbor.
