Uhhh, Trump is literally the executive.

He just commands the FCC or other authorities to ignore TikTok. He can extend this ban evasion for all 4 years if he wants.

Congress and Supreme Court do not control the executive powers. The President does.

Does the FCC have the discretion to do that after Chevron, I wonder?

Doesn't matter; SCOTUS is controlled by "unitary executive theory" nutjobs now. The FCC can do whatever Trump wants it to do; no more, no less.
