Trump On TikTok Ban, N. Korean Soldiers in Ukraine, Obesity Drug Shortage Ends

President-elect Donald Trump is seeking a delay from the Supreme Court on a law that may mandate TikTok's sale or shutdown due to its Chinese ownership. This marks a shift in Trump's stance, having previously advocated for a ban on the app amidst national security concerns. Concurrently, approximately 10,000 North Korean soldiers are facing dire conditions in Ukraine, suffering heavy casualties in poorly supported assaults. Lastly, the FDA has announced the end of the shortage of the obesity drug Zepbound, although patients face increased costs as alternatives are phased out.

**The urgency surrounding the TikTok ban underscores broader concerns about data privacy and national security, particularly regarding applications with foreign ownership.**
**Reports of North Korean soldiers engaging in suicide missions underscore the psychological toll of warfare, emphasizing the dire conditions under which these soldiers fight and the sense of hopelessness that can result from being sent into futile combat.**
