WASHINGTON, Jan 26 (Reuters) – California Governor Gavin Newsom alleged on Monday that TikTok was suppressing content critical of President Donald Trump and that Newsom was launching a review of the social media platform’s content moderation practices to determine if they violated state law.
“Gavin Newsom is launching a review of this conduct and is calling on the California Department of Justice to determine whether it violates California law,” his office said on X.
Newsom, a Democrat, and Trump, a Republican have long been critical of each other’s policies.
