Schemes for Privatizing Freddie and Fannie
#John #Paulson, the hedge fund billionaire, đ¸could score big if the federal governmentâs housing finance companies, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, are privatized.
He and #Bill #Ackman of Pershing Square Holdings,
another supporter of Mr. Trumpâs,
each purchased stakes in Fannie and Freddie, đ¸which the federal government spent $187 billion to bail out in 2008.
There is no formal public accounting of just how many preferred shares Mr. Paulson still controls, and a spokesman for Mr. Paulson declined to discuss the matter.
Mr. Ackmanâs investment in Fannie Mae common stock alone included 115.5 million shares, or 10 percent of the total.
Under the new Trump administration, John Paulson, the hedge fund billionaire, could cash out of his investment in the federal governmentâs housing finance outfits, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.
âď¸What is clear is that Freddie and Fannie stocks surged at least 140 percent since Mr. Trump was elected,
a hint of profits that could soon be secured if the privatization goes ahead.
â ď¸Advisers and former aides to Mr. Trump have already predicted that the companies are likely to go private during his new term,
đĽalthough it might require bypassing approval by Congress.
Mr. Paulson declined requests to comment. In an interview with Bloomberg Television in September, he agreed the time had come for the federal government to unload Fannie and Freddie.
âThey are now in a position where theyâre fairly well capitalized,â Mr. Paulson said, âwhich would make privatization logical
During this year's Republican primaries, Nelson Peltz gave $100,000 to a super pac supporting Tim Scott,
the South Carolina senator,
but Scott dropped out before a single G.O.P. vote was cast.
By the time of Peltzâs dinner, it was clear that Trump would secure the Republican nomination for an unprecedented third consecutive election.
Peltz, who was no longer on speaking terms with the ex-President, opened the discussion with a blunt assessment of the race.
đĽâI donât like Donald Trump,â an attendee recalled Peltz saying.
âHeâs a terrible human being, but our countryâs in a bad place, and we canât afford Joe Biden.â
So, Peltz concluded, however much they might dislike it, ââweâve all got to throw our support behind him.â
Some of Peltzâs guests remained skeptical,
holding to the view, as the attendee put it, that
âTrumpâs a terrible person
âIâm going to focus on the Senate.â
Most of the donors, however, adopted a more pragmatic approach to the ex-President.
Many of them had been granted significant access to the White House during his four years in office.
Some were expected to be considered for senior roles in a second term:
Trump has personally floated the name of the hedge-fund tycoon #John #Paulson, for instance, as a potential Secretary of the Treasury, touting him as
đĽâa money machine.â
âThey know how transactional he is,â the attendee told me.
âTheyâre hoping to have some influence over the course of appointments and therefore the direction of his Administration.â
A few of Peltzâs guests were all in.
#Steve #Wynn, the Las Vegas gambling titan, has known Trump for decades;
his wife, #Andrea #Hissom, is close to the former First Lady, Melania, and the two couples have spent time together in Palm Beach.
And then there was #Elon #Musk, the worldâs richest man, who had reportedly got to know Peltz through Peltzâs son #Diesel, a tech entrepreneur.
At the time, Musk had said that he would NOT back a candidate in the Presidential race.
âŚď¸By the fall, he would enthusiastically endorse Trump, spending $75 million to support him through a new super pac,
-- and spreading pro-Trump lies and conspiracy theories on his social-media platform, X.
Trump, the richest man ever to serve in the White House, is himself a billionaire,
though the extent of his wealth has long been in question.
(As of mid-October, with stock in Trumpâs social-media venture, Truth Social, experiencing a pre-election bounce, Forbes estimated his net worth at about $5.5 billion.)
In 2016, Trump hardly bothered to court big donors.
He was shunned by much of the G.O.P. ĂŠlite and largely self-funded his Republican primary campaign.
He lambasted Jeb Bush, the brother and son of Presidents, as a tool of the moneyed class.
đâSuper pacs are a disaster,â Trump said in a 2016 debate.
âTheyâre a scam. They cause dishonesty.
And youâd better get rid of them, because they are causing a lot of bad decisions to be made by some very good people.â
â ď¸But in 2020, as an incumbent President, Trump embraced super pacs and their funders.
The two main super pacs supporting his campaign raised
đĽ$255 million on his behalf that year;
his total fund-raising came to more than
đĽ $1 billion.
However, Biden, like Hillary Clinton four years earlier, raised even more than Trump,
bringing over-all spending in the 2020 Presidential race to a recordđĽ $5.7 billion.
âOctober 7 was a turning pointâ: Trumpâs pro-Israel fundraising accelerates
ALMOST AS SOON AS PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN announced he would halt a weapons shipment to Israel, Steve #Witkoffâs iPhone started buzzing.
âEvery one of my friends started calling and asking, âWhat can I do for Donald Trump?ââ Witkoff, a pro-Israel donor and fundraiser for Trumpâs presidential campaign, told The Bulwark.

#Paulson #Ross #Wynn #Lutnick #Wood #Loeffler #Troutt #McMahon #Mercer #Malik #McEvoy #Kurtz
Last month the New York Times reported on a dinner Donald Trump had with a small group of donors,
-- including large backers of his 2016 campaign, Robert #Mercer and his daughter Rebekah Mercer.
Other attendees included entrepreneur Omeed #Malik, cosmetics firm founder Trish #McEvoy and real estate billionaire Richard #Kurtz.
In April the Mercers and Malik were among a few dozen co-chairs of a Trump fundraising dinner hosted by John #Paulson, along with other notable co-chairs including Wilbur #Ross, Steve #Wynn, Howard #Lutnick, Robert #Wood, Kelly #Loeffler, Kenny #Troutt and Linda #McMahon â who is also a board director of Trump Media which owns Truth Social.
The Trump campaign claimed it raised over $50 million at the event.
Consider the possibility that the hyper-wealthy, ensconced in a world of luxury and privilege, might actually be more racist than the fanny pack crowd sitting in the cheap seats at a Trump rally.
Certainly, Donald Trump thinks as much and indicated so at a recent fundraiser in Palm Beach, Florida.
As reported by the New York Times, the event was held at the home of the billionaire financier #John #Paulson and attended solely by extremely wealthy people, there to soak up Trump's promises of another tax cut for the rich.
It was in this safe space of other rich people that Trump escalated the already hair-raising levels of racist rhetoric he uses at his rallies.
"Why canât we allow people to come in from nice countries," Trump whined. "Nice countries, you know like Denmark, Switzerland? Do we have any people coming in from Denmark? How about Switzerland? How about Norway?â

This is how saavy _some_ institutional #bondInvestors are. The infamous #Paulson mortgage backet securities bet, sold by #GoldmanSachs, prospectus states you'd be an idiot to buy this garbage. It even says GS & " counterparty" may have undisclosed material information! And people put hundreds of millions into it. #dumbmoney
Former U.S. Treasury Hank #Paulson, really good read on #US China relations. He knows his stuff. All points spot on.
Impending #EconomicIronCurtain, #deintegration, summary of China's failure to open, What the US and #China should do. Good guidelines to de-escalate. Two videos of his speech really good. #tradewar
China is not changing predatory trade practices, world will decouple trade. US should rejoin #TPP.
