Rolling Stone: White House Asks Tether's Key Allies to Take Sides, Moving to Oust Elon's Pal

2025.06.08 11:16:25

On June 8th, the US "Rolling Stone" magazine reported on the 7th with the title "We Are Taking Away Elon's Friends". It stated that the Trump team is adopting a "political divorce" stance in dealing with Musk's "betrayal". According to a senior White House official, if Musk wants to repair the relationship, he needs to show unprecedented humility. The "Rolling Stone" magazine's report pointed out that this public rift, which began on June 5th, has developed into a brutal loyalty test. White House staff have begun contacting mutual allies of both parties, including major party donors and conservative celebrities, asking them to choose sides. Pastor Darrell Scott, who has been advising Trump since 2016, said, "There is no need to choose at all; I will always stand by Trump... I think Elon is unable to handle this situation." Additionally, multiple officials from the Trump administration confirmed that after the rift news was made public, messages of loyalty from political and business elites poured into the Trump team. Under great pressure, Musk has started deleting tweets criticizing Trump. An official said, "The federal government can restart an investigation at any time," indicating Musk's controversies during his tenure at the Department of Efficiency under the government.

Anthropic still plans to launch its IPO before Thanksgiving, with a maximum valuation of $1.75 trillion and a planned fundraising of $80 billion to $100 billion.

According to a report by the Financial Times, despite a sharp sell-off in tech stocks, Anthropic still plans to proceed with its initial public offering (IPO) ahead of the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday. The AI startup is expected to raise between $80 billion and $100 billion in the offering, with a target valuation range of $1.25 trillion to $1.75 trillion. Market expectations center around $1.5 trillion, lower than the $2 trillion some investors had previously anticipated. Informed investors noted that Anthropic remains committed to going public as scheduled, even if it has to accept a lower valuation. The company’s third-quarter revenue grew nearly 50% to roughly $17 billion, with its latest annualized run rate (ARR) standing at approximately $81 billion, up from $65 billion at the end of July. Meanwhile, Anthropic plans to invest around $900 billion in computing power and infrastructure over the next several years, and currently holds nearly $150 billion in cash and liquid investments. JPMorgan Chase is scheduled to host an information session for potential investors on November 13. Recent sell-offs in the AI sector, regulatory headwinds facing data center construction, coupled with OpenAI’s reduction of its financing target, have all added greater market pressure to Anthropic’s IPO.

The order was issued under Section 9714(a) of the Countering Russian Money Laundering Act and will take effect 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent noted that U.S. financial institutions cannot support the Iranian regime while continuing to access the U.S. financial system.
