California governor alleges TikTok is suppressing content critical of Trump

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.
