Jeff Bezos is making power plays, and this time, he’s eyeing TikTok.
Reports say Amazon has thrown in a last-minute bid to buy the wildly popular video-sharing app before its Saturday deadline to cut ties with Chinese ownership or face a U.S. ban.

The New York Times revealed Amazon’s unexpected move.
However, sources say the offer isn’t being taken seriously.
With the clock ticking, TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, must sell to a non-Chinese buyer or risk being shut down in America.

President Trump, who set the April 5 deadline over national security concerns, told reporters on Sunday that multiple companies are eager to close the deal.
While he didn’t drop names, he hinted a sale is imminent.
With Amazon now in the mix, the fight for TikTok just got more intense.
Will Bezos’ deep pockets be enough to sway the deal.
Or is this just a high-stakes bluff? The answer could reshape the future of social media—and Amazon’s empire.
