representative, jake auchincloss. you were an original coleader of the tiktok divestment legislation. what the make of the extension? rep. auchincloss: the extension appears to be illegal. the law allows for 190 day extension if the president can demonstrate that a sale is underway, and there needs to be more time for the negotiations in the administration. what has happened here is trump has declared 75 days of a free pass for tiktok. and there does not seem to be any statutory support for that. this is an example of how the social media corporations have really come to plunder the american town square. there is an old saying in tech that if you are not paying, you are the product. well, big tech has productized americans' attention spans for the last 15 years and both parties have failed to rein them in. now tiktok -- excuse me -- now trump is inviting not only american corporate views of the town square, he is also inviting chinese communists. mike: the order yesterday recall -- called for a review of the intellige

auchincloss. mr. auchincloss: i rise in support of h.r. 33. this bill codifies the strong partnership between the united states and taiwan by granting benefits to taiwan's residents without the undue burden of additional taxation. taiwan's strong economy represent opportunity in the indo-pacific. in 2025, taiwan was the largest detention at the totalling 14 billion. the united states has signed double taxation agreements with 60 countries. it does not have one with taiwan. the scope and severity of the threat of the communist china is crystallized in the chinese straits. we should support each other's democracies. we should go further to strengthen one another economies through trade and investment by the negotiating expanded market access, common rules and the end of this double taxation. this is critical as we look to revive semiconductor manufacturing. as we seek to strengthen -- ms.chu: i yield an extra 30 seconds. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. auchincloss: as the united states seeks to strengthen commit to taiw

joining me now, democratic congressman jake auchincloss of massachusetts. i want to ask you something. we have just gotten this in from johnson, who is speaking about what happened in new orleans with that horrific attack that left at least 15 people dead. and here is what he has said. and he's putting some of the blame here on the biden administration. and i'm going to quote here, he says, we all know for the last four years, the biden administration has been completely derelict in its duty. the congressional republicans, we hear in the house and the senate have repeatedly asked the dhs under the biden administration about the correlation. the obvious concerns about terrorism in the wide open border. the idea that dangerous people were coming here in droves and setting up potential terrorist cells in the country. we have been ringing the alarm. so putting what happened in new orleans on the shoulders of the biden administration. now, we do know that the the the alleged terrorist in this attack was born and raised in texas, but the fbi says potentially he w

latest on president trump's gaza stance, i'm joined by massachusetts democratic congressman jake auchincloss. congressman, welcome. >> good afternoon, mike. mike: so president trump's calling for cleaning out gaza and sending the palestinians to egypt and jordan. what's your take on that and the latest headlines coming from the middle east? >> cleaning out, that term, it's not debris. these are human beings, 1.5 million human beings including hundreds of thousands of children. and what gaza needs is security, reconstruction and a new path forward for education and economic development. that can be provided by a transitional government that is palestinian-led, arab-financed, western-backed. it's not going to happen by trying to displace millions of palestinians from gaza and, in fact, that agenda would reignite ideological fervor behind hamas. hamas relishes that type of rhetoric. what hamas fears more than anything -- including israel, by the way -- is alternative, effective governance in gaza that demonstrate thes how bankrupt its nihilistic agenda is. mike: president trump clearly wants gr

joining me right now, we have our friend, the democratic congressman from massachusetts, jake auchincloss. so, congressman, i saw you listening there on the monitor. you heard ralph, does this cease fire still feel tenuous, or do you expect it to hold and see the remaining agreed upon hostages freed? and how much will the incoming administration help or hurt in getting through these phases without one more shot being fired or bomb dropped? >> good afternoon. alex. thanks for having me on. i was struck as i was watching your interview with ralph, that that video of the three young women being released, surrounded by literally hundreds of masked armed gunmen hooting and hollering and jeering at them. and i think hamas thinks that that makes them look strong. what it actually reveals to the wider world is that they're a barbaric terrorist cult that uses sexual violence and torture and terrorism to try to intimidate people. what israel has proclaimed over the last 450 days is that it, as a country, will not be intimidated. it is going to achieve peace through strength. that strength requires

senator elizabeth warren and congressman jake auchincloss wrote a letter to the heads of the sec, the treasury saying, quote, anyone, including the leaders of hostile nations can covertly buy these coins, raising the specter of uninhibited and untraceable foreign influence over the president of the united states, all while president trump supporters are left to shoulder the risk of investing in trump coin and melania coin. what? melania coin? yeah, that's right. first lady melania trump launched her own coin a day after her husband did. it dropped nearly 80% in value since it peaked on the 19th of january. now think about this the people most likely to spend real money on a digital asset that has no inherent value other than the president's name are going to be the president's biggest supporters. so if you're an average person looking to invest some of your savings, please don't be fooled by trump coin or anybody else's coin. this is not an investment. it's just another grift. and buying just another grift. and buying iwhen you really need to sleep. you reach for the really good stuff

. >> and we know because we just talked to congressman auchincloss, that no dems plan on voting for johnson correct. that is a scenario. these it's either of these two if that holds true. all right. recent history. we've been through this before. like i said it's kind of a groundhog day. what are you seeing in the last couple of times this has happened. >> yeah. so the idea that republicans might go against the speaker choice of the majority of the congress ain't something that seems that crazy, given the last two races, ballots it took to elect a speaker. you go back to january of 2023, 15 ballots for kevin mccarthy, the most since 1859 60, and the first multi ballot race since 1923. and then in october we were like, let's do it all again. it took four ballots to elect mike johnson and actually took more days for the johnson one than the mccarthy one. we were talking over a week. so folks, look, we'll see what happens tomorrow. we don't know. but get your seat belts buckle in. it's a new year. but it's the same old story when it comes to speaker races being quite nutty. >> the fact that yo

co-sponsors of that bill and a good friend to us, democratic congressman from massachusetts, jake auchinclosselcome. let's see, the court should issue at least a preliminary decision in days, right. do you expect the justices to set aside tiktok and some of its users first amendment concerns and allow the ban to go into effect? that would be a week from tomorrow, sunday the 19th. >> good afternoon, alex. >> thanks for having me on. >> given the oral arguments. given that the president and congress have both weighed in on forcing tiktok to sell, i expect the supreme court is going to uphold this law. >> certainly, i hope so. >> i didn't just co-lead this law as a member of the china select committee with access to analysis about what china is doing with this app. i also co-led this law as one of the youngest parents in congress. >> my oldest is four and a half. the way i see it, i got about five years to rein in social media corporations before my kids start using this stuff. >> because these companies not just tiktok, but meta and twitter and twitch and reddit and discord, they are attention
