Lutnick: TikTok will go dark unless China agrees to US control
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick warned Thursday that TikTok will go dark unless China agrees to a deal in which American owners take control of the popular social media app and its algorithm. 'It's got to come out of Chinese control,' Lutnick told CNBC's 'Squawk on the Street.' 'We've made the decision. You can't have Chinese control and have something on a hundred million American phones. That's just not okay.' 'So, if it's in American control, China can have a little piece, or ByteDance, the current owner, can keep a little piece,' he continued. 'But basically Americans will have control, Americans will own the technology and Americans will control the algorithm.' TikTok has remained online for the past seven months despite a law requiring its parent company ByteDance to divest from the app or face a U.S. ban. The law, passed by Congress last year, was meant to go into effect the day before President Trump took office. However, former President Biden declined to enforce the law in his final days in office, and Trump quickly followed this up with an executive order delaying enforcement. He has since given TikTok two more extensions, as he attempts to strike a deal to keep the app available. The next deadline is set for Sept. 17. Trump said late last month that he had found a buyer for the app, which he described as 'very, very wealthy people.' However, he underscored the deal would likely require the approval of the Chinese government. 'If that deal gets approved by the Chinese, then that deal will happen,' Lutnick added Thursday. 'If they don't approve it, then TikTok is going to go dark. And those decisions are coming very soon. …. The deal is over to them right now.' The Trump administration had previously finalized a deal on TikTok in April, but the effort was scuttled by the announcement of the president's 'reciprocal' tariff regime, which targeted China and other countries with hefty new import taxes.

Soft power delivers big returns, but Trump is slashing it anyway
Studies in many countries show that spending on diplomacy, cultural engagement, and humanitarian relief generates a huge economic return on investment —at least six times greater than the dollars invested. Advertisement The European Union's Creative Europe program produced three to four times the amount invested in cultural diplomacy. Advertisement The United States has not measured its soft power directly, but there is no doubt that it boosts its image by providing humanitarian and disaster aid. In 2003, the United States spent $400 million to help Indonesia recover from the massive tsunami in the Indian Ocean. Public approval of the United States in Indonesia, the world's largest Muslim country, Today, the United States is turning away from such opportunities. What may look like savings through layoffs and grant rescissions will in fact cost billions in lost trade, weakened alliances, and diminished global influence. In nearly every other policy domain — whether approving a medicine, a public safety regulation, or building new infrastructure — government decisions are informed by cost-benefit analysis. No such analysis has been performed here. If cost-benefit thinking were applied to soft power, it would be clear that the benefits of soft power far outweigh the costs. Advertisement The concept is well understood in the private sector. Businesses spend heavily to acquire 'goodwill' — brand value, reputation, and customer trust. Such intangible assets drive future profits and provide protection against commercial competitors. Governments should treat soft power the same way: as a hedge that reduces economic and military conflict. When nations trust America and see us as a partner rather than a threat, they are far less likely to take hostile actions that would require costly military responses. Soft power investments provide a double dividend that pays off in both economic gains and reduced defense spending. The full value of America's global engagement may only become evident once it is withdrawn. The Trump administration is working hard to achieve this end. The Trump administration has laid off government scientists, educators, and health experts, including last week's As the United States slashes its soft power budget,China is scaling up. The Chinese Belt and Road Initiative has committed more than $1 trillion in infrastructure spending. Chinese-funded rail projects in Malaysia, Advertisement The dollar 'savings' that Thune crowed about amount to less than the cost of a single F-35 fighter jet. But a fighter jet can't help refugees, teach Afghan girls to read, or persuade African leaders to choose American over Chinese technology. As Nye pointed out, soft power is easy to squander and difficult to recover. The cuts, combined with the Trump administration's sustained assault on the nation's leading universities, represent a colossal soft power miscalculation. They will cost America global influence that no amount of military spending can replace.

China's Surprise Move on Capital Gains Tax Is Genius Timing
You can't go broke paying capital gains taxes, but you will feel the pinch — and for mainland Chinese with sizable overseas investments, a bit of apprehension. Chinese authorities have been contacting residents who trade US and Hong Kong stocks, asking them to declare their earnings and pay tax liabilities. A 20% levy is applied to dividend income as well as annual net stock trading profits.
