Former Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said Thursday he's assembling a team of investors to make a bid to buy TikTok.  This comes a day after the House passed a measure to ban the Chinese-owned social media giant or force a sale to a US-operated owner.  “It's a great business and I'm going to put together a group to buy TikTok,” Mnuchin said in an interview on CNBC Thursday morning. Even though TikTok is likely unprofitable, “it's worth a lot of money,” he added.  Mnuchin said he would give existing US investors the option to roll over their stakes in TikTok but stressed that no entity would have more than 10% control. But he declined to name any individuals on the team he's putting together.  “There's no way that the Chinese would ever let a US company own something like this in China,” he said. From his time in the administration, he said he's seen evidence that having TikTok on your phone gives it the ability to “collect an awful lot of data.”  But ByteDance, the parent company of TikTok, may never be allowed to be sold to any company outside of China because of measures the government began putting into place in 2020. The Chinese government deems TikTok a sensitive technology and officials have said they'd oppose any forced sale that would involve exporting it into the hands of a foreign owner.  Mnuchin and TikTok didn't immediately respond to CNN's requests for comment.  Dan Ives, senior equity analyst at Wedbush Securities, told CNN that ByteDance and China will “never” sell TikTok with the source code — the “special sauce” that makes the app so successful and valuable.  “Without the source code, this would be like buying an F1 car without the engine. It would be illogical,” Ives said.  Mnuchin, though, said he's looking to find a solution where the Chinese government will allow TikTok to be sold without a technology transfer.  Mnuchin, who now leads Liberty Strategic Capital, a private equity firm, was an early advocate for forcing a sale of TikTok to a US company. But he faced opposition from other members of former President Donald Trump's cabinet when the sale was proposed in 2020. Trump supported a ban at the time. He's since changed his stance, arguing that it would benefit Facebook.  “Facebook has been very bad for our country,” he said in a separate interview on CNBC earlier in the week. Meta, the parent company of Facebook, didn't immediately respond to CNN.  “I believe he would support a sale,” Mnuchin said Thursday, referring to Trump. “I'll call him up later and ask him.” He added that he's been in touch with the former president in recent weeks regarding TikTok but has not discussed his nascent effort to acquire it.  Thursday's TikTok news comes just one week after Mnuchin led a $1 billion lifeline rescue of embattled regional lender New York Community Bank.  The TikTok bill the House passed is now heading to the Senate, where it faces a much larger uphill battle in getting approved. President Joe Biden said he would sign the bill into law if the Senate passes it. Even if that happens, any kind of TikTok ban would likely be fought in courts. Already Montana was prevented from moving forward with a law to effectively ban the app after a federal judge blocked it last year.  Ives, the tech analyst, said he sees a 25% chance that the TikTok legislation ultimately becomes law, forcing a sale of the company. He said countless parties are undoubtedly considering making an offer to buy TikTok should it go up for sale.  “It's sharks. They see blood in the water,” he said.  However, the more likely buyer, according to Ives, would be a tech giant like Microsoft or Oracle, which already has a relationship with TikTok, and not a financial player like Mnuchin.  - by Elisabeth Buchwald and Matt Egan, CNNSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The former U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, known for his tenure under the Trump administration, recently made headlines on CNBC's 'Squawk Box'. He disclosed his intention to assemble a consortium with the purpose of acquiring the social-media titan TikTok, currently owned by the Chinese corporation Bytedance. Mnuchin is leveraging his insights into the tech sector with a plan to bring together a team capable of effectively managing such a massive platform. He expounded on his dialogues with various high-profile figures in the process, though he shied away from getting into specifics about potential collaborators. This news surfaces in the wake of a recent House of Representatives' decision that promotes a definite shift in TikTok's ownership. The bill, which passed with notable support in the lower chamber, is aimed at compelling Bytedance to dissociate its assets from TikTok and encourage a sale to an interested U.S entity. While this bill is now in the Senate, its future there remains uncertain. Previously, the DC Enquirer shed light on the overwhelmingly positive reception of this bill. It witnessed fascinating traction among the House members, with 352 individuals in favor as opposed to 65 against. This legislation seeks to resolve perceived national security issues raised by TikTok's prominent links to the Chinese Communist Party and the app's potential sway over a vast pool of younger users.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

He was previously a Managing Director and Member of the Operating Committee of BlackRock, where he served as head of financial markets advisory and client solutions, advising central banks, banking supervisors and multi-lateral organizations around the world, including the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

"You don't get it do you? Me and you. It's madness!" It sure is madness in this new film written, directed, produced, and starring Louise Linton. For those of you who don't know, Louise Linton is married to ex-U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin. Mnuchin is worth about $300 million and I'm sure a bundle of that money went into his wife's vanity project entitled Me You Madness. In this movie Louise plays a rich, narcissistic serial killer named Catherine Black who runs a hedge fund, lives in Malibu, and loves money, fashion, and 80s music. The Lodgecast takes a deep dive (perhaps too deep) into this criminally insane film. The 80s hits and salad dragons keep coming in this movie so sit back and enjoy the ride!

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. A top Chinese Communist Party influence operator boasted recently that China’s “old friends” on Wall Street have, for decades, successfully compelled the U.S. government to do Beijing’s bidding. A prime example was the 2013 deal brokered by then-Vice President Joe Biden that gave the CCP preferential access to our capital markets – and roughly $3 trillion in American investors’ funds. Prof. Di Dongsheng claimed that the exception was the Trump administration. He lied. Thanks especially to the unstinting efforts of Wall Street veteran and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, Communist China has been able to perpetuate U.S. underwriting even of companies building military technologies designed to destroy us. After Mr. Mnuchin leaves office next week, he is expected to resume his lucrative business dealings with China – where his serial betrayal of Trump national security colleagues and the country will presumably be handsomely rewarded. This is Frank Gaffney.

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Among President Trump’s most important legacies is depriving the Chinese Communist Party of U.S. investors’ continued underwriting of its military-industrial complex. Unfortunately, that legacy is being seriously jeopardized by what is nominally the Trump Treasury Department. The huge impact of the Executive Order Mr. Trump issued in November is evident in the fact that Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin has worked tirelessly to undermine it ever since. He’ll do that again during a Cabinet-level meeting this afternoon. Mnuchin’s objective is ensuring that his – and Communist China’s – “old friends” on Wall Street can continue investing in Beijing’s threatening military companies until after the Biden administration comes to power. The Treasury Secretary must not be permitted to get away with sabotaging President Trump and his legacy of decisively countering the Chinese Communist Party, thereby intensifying the danger it represents to the rest of us. This is Frank Gaffney.

Welcome to Majority.FM's AM QUICKIE! Brought to you by justcoffee.coop TODAY'S HEADLINES: After threats and waffling, Donald Trump signed the compromise-laden relief bill, meaning suffering Americans will get at least some federal aid in the coming days. Meanwhile, authorities identified the 63-year-old man who detonated a car bomb in an RV camper in Nashville on Friday, in a bizarre attack that killed only the bomber. And lastly, to catch everyone up -- Trump dropped some of his most outrageous pardons yet right before Christmas, wiping the sentences of four Blackwater mercenaries convicted of killing children in Iraq, as well as a laundry list of his political allies. THESE ARE THE STORIES YOU NEED TO KNOW: Here’s the good news: after an absurd period of whining and complaining, Donald Trump signed Congress’s lackluster relief bill into law on Sunday night, meaning that we’re all going to get another measly $600 from the government and state and local agencies will get some of the aid they need. We also avoided a government shutdown. Hooray. But here’s the bad news. Once again, the bill is wildly insufficient for what Americans actually need. And to make matters worse, Trump’s delay let the expanded unemployment benefits millions of Americans are relying on expire. While those benefits have been restored for the future, it’s unclear what that will mean for the immediate week after the lapse. Of course, while all this was going on the Trump White House was on vacation. Mike Pence is currently in Vail, Colorado, Trump himself is down in Florida as always, and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin flew his private jet down to his resort in Mexico for the holidays. They’re not even pretending to care at this point. Strangely, Trump’s initial resistance to the relief bill came because he actually wanted bigger checks to go out to everyone. Trump was pushing for $2,000, a number that sounds a lot better than $600. No one would have complained, except the Republican party of course, so Trump threw a tantrum and picked a fight with his own party and threatened to call the whole thing off. Fortunately, he had an abrupt change of heart on Sunday night, and now the American people will get at least something to keep them going. Authorities ID Nashville Bomber A bizarre bombing in Nashville, Tennessee on Friday night has worried and perplexed pretty much all of us for several days. If you’re not caught up, on Friday night an RV drove through downtown Nashville, playing music and a pre-recorded message for people to evacuate because it had a bomb inside. It parked outside an AT&T transmission building, and then exploded around 6:30 a.m. Fortunately, police officers responding to reports of gunfire found the van and managed to evacuate most of the surrounding buildings. On Sunday, authorities identified the perpetrator as 63-year-old Anthony Quinn Warner. Warner’s remains were found at the site of the blast. No one else was killed, and only three people were injured. The blast knocked out cell service in some areas and briefly shut down flights at Nashville’s airport. Warner’s motive is still unclear, as is whether or not he was deliberately targeting the AT&T building. Also on Sunday, police discovered a large box truck parked outside of a convenience store near Nashville playing the same music. That could be a coincidence, however, as no explosive device was found. We’ll hopefully know a little bit more about the motivations of the bomber in the coming days. Trump Pardons Child Killers Trump gave out one last round of perverse Christmas gifts last week as well. In an unexpected but somehow unsurprising move, Trump pardoned a list of corporate crooks, corrupt politicians, and outright killers. In one day, Trump pardoned Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, and Jared Kushners crook of a father Charles Kushner. He also wiped the convictions of George Pappadopolous and Alex van der Zwaan, who both caught charges as a result of the Mueller investigation. Oh, corrupt former Congressmen Duncan Hunter, Steve Stockman, and Chris Collins also got a pass. It’s pretty clear that Trump knows he’s on the way out at this point, and is using his final days to clear the records of all his buddies and bank some favors for his return to a world where he’s not President. But what’s telling is who he’s willing to let out at the same time. See, Trump also pardoned some of the only people held accountable for atrocities during the Iraq war, a group of four former soldiers who participated in a massacre while working as contactors for the notorious mercenary company Blackwater. Blackwater, if you’ll remember, was at the time owned by a man named Erik Prince, whose sister is Trump’s secretary of Education Betsy DeVos. The Blackwater guards were convicted for their role in a massacre at a checkpoint outside of Iraq’s Green Zone in 2007, which left 17 civilians dead including two children. These are the type of people Trump wants to go to bat for, just in case that wasn’t clear. AND NOW FOR SOME QUICKER QUICKIES: The new strain of coronavirus that originated in the UK has jumped its borders, as several European nations as well as Japan, Lebanon, Canada and others reported cases. Once again, this is cause for concern, not panic, but it certainly means full vaccination can’t come soon enough. A new report by Huffington Post found that Donald Trump’s donors funneled some $10.5 million into his businesses during his presidency, largely through costs charged by Trump’s golf courses and hotels. That’s shocking by normal standards of course, but in the grand scheme of things you’d expect a smarter crook to pocket more than 10 million while literally running the country. CNN anchor Jake Tapper, who’s spent the last four years letting Trump officials come on his air and lie to him about whatever they want, tried to do a little bit of hand waving about it by bragging to Brian Stelter about how he’d never booked Trump press secretary Kayleigh McEnany or advisor Jason Miller because they quote “tell lies the way that most people breathe.” endquote. Then again, Tapper does regularly interview CNN contributor Rick Santorum, so win some, lose some, Jake. And finally, Dr. Anthony Fauci warned once again of a surge in COVID cases after the holidays. We saw exactly this effect after Thanksgiving, and Christmas is unlikely to be any different. With the vaccine on the way, it’s crazy to start throwing caution to the winds now. Take care of yourselves out there. DEC 28, 2020 - AM QUICKIE HOSTS - Sam Seder & Lucie Steiner WRITER - Jack Crosbie PRODUCER - Dorsey Shaw EXECUTIVE PRODUCER - Brendan Finn

Congress took up a $900 billion pandemic relief package Monday night that would deliver cash to businesses and individuals and vaccination resources to states. The package passed the House and remained on track for approval in the Senate and the expected signature of President Donald Trump.  The bill establishes a temporary $300 per week supplemental jobless benefit and a $600 direct payment to most Americans. It also provides a new round of subsidies for hard-hit businesses and restaurants, in addition to money for schools, health care providers and renters facing eviction. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said the direct payments would start arriving in bank accounts next week. The bill provides $600 to individuals making up to $75,000 per year and $1,200 to couples making up to $150,000, with payments phased out for higher incomes. An additional $600 payment will be made per dependent child, similar to the last round of payments in the spring.

As of Monday, more than 1,100 front-line UIHC employees who work directly with patients had received a first dose of the Pfizer vaccine, which arrived last week. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Dec. 11 approved emergency use of Pfizer's vaccine, and it granted the same approval of Moderna's on Friday. UIHC is receiving its vaccine allocations from Johnson County Public Health only for employees at this time, in alignment with guidance from the Iowa Department of Public Health and the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention. UI leaders have told reporters they would like to be involved in vaccinating the broader community but have not been given doses or clearance to vaccinate anyone other than health care employees.

Carl Quintanilla, Jim Cramer and David Faber discussed a rough morning for stocks: Markets reacting to news of a new strain of the coronavirus resulting in lockdowns throughout the UK, as well as travel restrictions to and from that country. Travel-related stocks taking a hit on those developments, which overshadowed two major stories: Capitol Hill lawmakers reaching an agreement on the $900-billion coronavirus relief package, plus deliveries of Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine underway in the U.S. after the FDA authorized it for emergency use. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin joined the program to discuss the new stimulus deal and how passage of aid legislation would help people and businesses recover from the pandemic.

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. The Financial Times and other media outlets have exposed an insidious, last-minute effort by Wall Street insiders to sabotage one of Donald Trump’s most important countermeasures to the threat posed by the Chinese Communist Party. In an executive order issued last month, the President blocked indexes and Exchange Traded Funds from investing our money in Communist Chinese military companies and their subsidiaries. Some of those affected have begun dumping PLA stocks. Unfortunately, one of China’s “old friends” from Wall Street is Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin. And his department is frantically trying to eviscerate Mr. Trump’s Executive Order. The good news is that Mnuchin’s efforts to allow continued underwriting of this mortal threat from China is being strongly opposed by patriots in the Pentagon and State Department. Now that Mnuchin’s gambit has been revealed, surely President Trump will reject it – as he must. This is Frank Gaffney.

It's the time of the year when corporate and government finance people start to see the complete picture for 2020. With just a couple of weeks to go in the year, they know by now just how the year will finish. Yes, there can be some last minute surprises. But by and large the dye is cast. The really big numbers are done. Will the year be positive and profitable, or will it be a financial disaster? You can bet that the guys who wear the green eye shades, the accountants and financial officers have already taken the long walk to the executive suite, to let the Company's CEO just how to prepare for that annual meeting. And although the titles are a little exactly the same thing is happening over at 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue, The US Treasury Building. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, already knows what the numbers are for 2020. And like a giant ship under full steam, the US Economy will not change course in the last 2 weeks.

Americans still traveled for Thanksgiving, despite Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warnings to stay home. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin puts forward a stimulus plan.

The White House has made a new offer of government stimulus for the US economy, as Democrat and Republican lawmakers continue to negotiate over the much-needed aid. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin outlined a package worth $918 billion, which includes direct payments of $600 to Americans, but not extending extra unemployment benefits that expired in July. Leading Democrats gave the proposal a frosty reception. Also today, we look at plans from Australia's government to make digital giants Google and Facebook pay news organisations for displaying their journalism.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin are in negotiations in hopes of reaching an agreement on a major relief package that could pass before Election Day. Meanwhile, Senate Republicans, including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, have continued to cast doubt that a pre-Election Day deal will be reached. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer joins AC360 to discuss the status of the negotiations and says Sen. Mitch McConnell is the problem and doesn’t want to get a deal done. Plus, the former head of U.S. Special Operations Command, retired Navy Adm. William McRaven who oversaw the bin Laden raid, revealed he voted for Joe Biden and said he “will be a much, much better leader than Donald Trump.” He joins other high profile Republicans and retired military leaders who have thrown their support behind the former Vice President. Chuck Hagel is a former Republican Senator and Defense Secretary under President Obama who has also endorsed Biden. He tells Anderson Cooper “Biden is a uniter. He’s not a divider. He understands that you got to bring the country together.” Airdate: October 20, 2020 Guests: Chuck Hagel Sen.

The coronavirus has impacted every American, including members of Congress. While lawmakers work out a new way to help those hit hard financially by the pandemic, some are forced to self-quarantine at home. One of them is Senator Cory Gardner. He recently isolated himself in his Washington D.C. apartment after learning he came in contact with someone infected with COVID19. The Colorado Republican joined host Dave Anthony on The Rundown earlier this week to discuss his self-quarantine and how he was continuing his work on the coronavirus financial relief bill. Sen. Gardner also weighed in on Washington's new found bipartisanship, but also said the Democrat's efforts to impeach the President earlier this year distracted our country from the growing threat of the coronavirus. The conversation was long and our original segment only featured portions of the discussion. On the Fox News Rundown Extra, you will hear even more from Gardner including some 'behind the scenes' audio that includes the Senator explaining why the interview had to delayed due to a call from Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin.

An old plan to save the Postal Service $97 billion over the next 11 years is getting new life. The Trump administration's fiscal 2021 budget request has refreshed recommendations made by a postal task force in December 2018, led by Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin. The task force recommended rolling back the right of postal unions to collectively bargain over compensation. The White House has also tacked on a plan to restructure USPS payments to pre-fund retiree health benefits. Federal News Network's Jory Heckman joined Tom Temin with more.

With the House scheduled to leave town for a six-week recess Friday, Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin are negotiating a budget deal to address spending caps and the debt ceiling. On this episode of Bloomberg Government's “Suspending the Rules,” budget and appropriations reporter Jack Fitzpatrick breaks down the talks and issues at stake in the deal.
