The Wall Street Journal
About this episode

P.M. Edition for Jan. 17. WSJ reporter and editor Aaron Zitner discusses a new Wall Street Journal poll showing where voters stand on President-elect Donald Trump’s agenda shortly before he takes office. And the U.S. Supreme Court rules that a law that would ban TikTok can stay in effect. We hear from Wall Street Journal Supreme Court correspondent Jess Bravin about what that means for the app’s possible future. And Israel’s security cabinet approves the cease-fire deal that would pause fighting in Gaza. Alex Ossola hosts.
