Fox News: Will Trump White House rescue TikTok from looming ban? President-elect has done a 180 on the app
President-elect Donald Trump suggested that TikTok users should vote for him to avoid a ban on the app, which is set to take effect in January. His team claims he will work to reverse the ban, contrasting his previous attempts to block the app in 2020.
Despite bipartisan concerns about TikTok's ties to China, public support for a ban has declined, with only 32% of Americans in favor. Trump's administration may face challenges from his own Cabinet picks, many of whom support the ban.

GB News: Police officer sacked after three guilty of gross misconduct over access to Everard murder files
A police officer has been dismissed for gross misconduct after improperly accessing files related to the murder of Sarah Everard. The tribunal found that PC Myles McHugh accessed sensitive information while off duty, while former DC Hannah Rebbeck would have been sacked had she not resigned.
The misconduct occurred shortly after Everard's murder by then-serving officer Wayne Couzens in March 2021. Other officers at the hearing were found to have legitimate reasons for accessing the information. Couzens is serving a life sentence for his crimes.
