Trump’s Threat of TikTok Shutdown Delivered Deal
“Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the threat of allowing the social media app TikTok to go dark in the US was what ultimately sealed a framework deal in Madrid that would see the American iteration of the platform enter US hands — severing connections with its Chinese parent company ByteDance,” Bloomberg reports.

Two House Republicans to Oppose Spending Plan

Never Let a Crisis Go to Waste
Andrew Egger: “Despite his unassuming title of ‘deputy chief of staff,’ Stephen Miller is one of the most powerful men in America. His boss, Donald Trump, is undisciplined and unfocused, prone to launching major initiatives (mass deportation, D.C. crime crackdown) before wandering off to get distracted by fripperies (redecorating the White House, micromanaging the Kennedy Center). Miller, by contrast, is the always-on attack dog, single-mindedly scheming up new ways to translate the president’s vague pronouncements into applications of real government power. As one top official at a major university in the crosshairs of this administration told us: he is the point person on all of it; his office, the real power center inside the White House.”
“How Miller has been talking in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination should have everybody worried.”

“Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that the two sides had agreed to a ‘framework’ for a deal to divest TikTok from its Chinese owner, ByteDance.

Trump Wants to Cut Back Quarterly Earnings Reports
“President Trump on Monday suggested U.S. public companies should no longer have to report earnings quarterly, but on a six-month schedule instead,” Axios reports.

How Trump’s Provocative Economist Crashed the Fed
Wall Street Journal: “Two years ago, Stephen Miran’s career in finance seemed to reach a dead end. The investment firm he co-founded was closing, having never really gotten off the ground.”
“Now he is at the forefront of President Trump’s bid to remake the Federal Reserve.”
“Miran, chair of the White House’s Council of Economic Advisers, is poised to join the Fed’s board of governors, part of the 12-member panel that sets interest rates to steer the U.S. economy. It would be the first time since the creation of the modern Fed in the 1930s that a sitting member of the executive branch would also serve at the central bank.”
