  Arguments to begin today in the US government’s case to ban TikTok: The DOJ is ready to prove that the social media platform that once had people making NyQuil chicken is a threat to national security and must divest. There’s one interesting caveat in the First Amendment case—the DOJ doesn’t want to show the defendant its evidence due to it being classified, arguing that saying why TikTok is a threat would be a threat in itself. If ByteDance, the Chinese-owned parent company of TikTok, doesn’t win its case, it would have to sell TikTok or effectively be banned in the US.

  Former President Donald J. Trump was playing golf on Sunday afternoon in Florida when a Secret Service agent spotted a man with a rifle standing by a chain-link fence on the perimeter of the course, law enforcement officials said.

  
  

  The agents opened fire, and the man fled in a black Nissan but was eventually taken into custody, the officials said.

  
  

  While Mr. Trump was safe and unharmed, the Federal Bureau of Investigation said it was investigating the episode as an apparent attempted assassination, the second one against the former president in just over two months.
