Trump and cabinet members create TikTok accounts after federal approval

President Trump joined TikTok on Tuesday, along with several members of his cabinet. Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum was among those who created new accounts. The move came after the Justice Department said the app is safe for federal employees to use. TikTok has faced serious questions in the United States about data privacy and national security for several years. The government had previously considered banning the app. The Justice Department's decision shows a clear change in how the government now views the platform. On Wednesday, late night television hosts made jokes about the president and his cabinet members joining the popular app.
