Description:
The House passed legislation that would ban TikTok in the US if its China-based owner, ByteDance, doesn't sell its stake within one year. The bill was added to a larger foreign aid package providing funding for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. It is now headed to the Senate. TikTok is expected to challenge the bill in court, arguing it violates the First Amendment rights of its 170 million US users. TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew pledged in a video to continue fighting for the platform, emphasizing the company's commitment to defending its interests and the community it has built.

This is for Maria. I didn't act right with her. The reason was that before the MMA fight, there were a lot of fistfights. I stayed there in the cage and I just wanted to go out and fight,' he said. <br/><br/>'I was tense and, as most understand, emotions flourish in the fight, so before the fight, I acted badly towards María.<br/><br/>'I want to publicly apologize to her. I am a married man, so I respect the female gender. She was doing her job and I, after the fight, didn't admit my guilt either, because they also hit me on the head. Tell María that I am sorry.'<br/><br/>Despite his apology, Heibati has still been hit with a lifetime ban from HFC. <br/><br/>He is not the first MMA star to lose his job after outrageous behavior inside the cage Brazilian youngster Igor Severino was cut from the UFC last month for biting his opponent on his debut with the organization.<br/><br/>Severino took a chunk out of his fellow Brazilian Andre Lima's arm and was disqualified before losing his job, and he subsequently revealed that he received death threats following his behavior.")
