    TikTok Parent Says Clueless About $5B Fund That Trump Claims Will Help Teach 'Real' US History

    President Donald Trump suggested Saturday that the TikTok deal he gave his "blessing" to involved a $5 billion education fund for the United States, but ByteDance claims it didn't hear of this until media reports emerged.

    What Happened: “They are going to pay $5bn into a fund for education so we can educate people as to the real history of our country. We are getting very close to that deal,” the president had told his supporters on Saturday in North Carolina, the Financial Times reported.

    ByteDance, in a Chinese social media post on Sunday, said it was the first time it was hearing of such a fund, according to Reuters.
