Apple gave me an advanced look at its newest flagship laptop, the 16-inch M4 Pro MacBook Pro, which goes on sale to the public tomorrow.

The president-elect, who joined TikTok in June to campaign, appears to have flipped the switch and has come out in support of the ByteDance-owned app in the past year. TikTok executives are also hopeful that the

Donald Trump is set to be the next president of the United States.
