Quick Glance: ByteDance Would Consider Closing TikTok in US Over Sale, Sources Claim
- ByteDance would prefer to cease TikTok operations rather than engage in a sale if all legal avenues are exhausted to combat potential legislation banning the platform in US app stores, as per four sources.
- Despite TikTok's massive popularity with over a billion users, it remains unprofitable, contributing a small fraction to ByteDance's overall revenues and daily active user base.
- ByteDance stated on Thursday in a release on Toutiao, a media platform it possesses, that there are no intentions to sell TikTok, in response to claims from The Information about ByteDance exploring sale scenarios for TikTok's US operations excluding the recommending algorithm for user videos.

Quick Glance: TikTok Ban Threat: ByteDance Prefers Closure Over Sale, Insiders Say
- ByteDance, the owner of TikTok, would prefer to shut down its loss-making app rather than sell it if all legal options to fight legislation to ban the platform from app stores in the US are exhausted, said four sources.
- TikTok accounts for a small share of ByteDance’s total revenues and daily active users, so the parent would rather have the app shut down in the US in a worst-case scenario than sell it to a potential American buyer, they said.
- ByteDance would not agree to sell one of its most valuable assets – its “secret source” – to rivals, said the four sources, referring to the TikTok algorithm.
- After facing challenges regarding bans, the short-form video app has encountered partial and attempted prohibitions in the US and other nations.

bbc.com/news/uk-politics-68816566
Quick Glance: UK Lawmakers Support Groundbreaking 'Smoke-Free Generation' Bill
- The British government's plan for a landmark smoking ban to prevent young people from ever smoking passed its first hurdle in Parliament despite opposition from within Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's Conservative Party.
- The bill, announced by Sunak, would make it illegal to sell tobacco products to anyone born after January 1, 2009, creating one of the toughest anti-smoking measures in the world to establish the 'first smoke-free generation' in modern Britain.
- The bill also includes measures to crack down on youth vaping, such as banning the sale of cheap disposable vapes and restricting their flavors to prevent children from becoming addicted to nicotine.
- The number of people who smoke in the U.K. has declined by two-thirds since the 1970s, but approximately 6.4 million people in the country still smoke, accounting for about 13% of the population. Smoking remains the number one preventable cause of death, disability, and poor health.

thehill.com/latino/4588719-trump-johnson-bill-non-citizen-voting/
Quick Glance: Focus on Support for Israel and Ukraine by Mike Johnson
- House Speaker Mike Johnson is heavily advocating for support for Israel and Ukraine while trying to push a national security package through the House.
- Johnson faces the challenge of juggling the Republican Party's divided support for Kyiv's defense while feeling the pressure to pass a comprehensive aid package for U.S. allies.
- In his quest to find ways to promote funding for Ukraine, Johnson is engaging in discussions with the White House and former president Donald Trump. The divisive dynamic within the party and the urgency of the situation in Ukraine present a significant challenge for Johnson.
- Johnson must craft a package that includes some policy wins for Republicans while also gaining Democratic approval. Despite concerns from some progressive Democrats regarding support for Israel, most Democratic lawmakers have rallied behind the Senate-passed package.

thehill.com/policy/healthcare/4600740-arizona-republicans-again-block-1864-abortion-ban-repeal/
Quick Glance: Arizona Republicans foil another effort to repeal 1864 abortion ban
- Arizona House Republicans once again thwarted an attempt on Wednesday to repeal the state's nearly complete abortion ban from 1864, leaving Democrats without a vote on their repeal bill for the second consecutive week.
- Despite facing pressure from influential conservatives, such as former President Trump and Senate hopeful Kari Lake, urging GOP leaders to lift the ban, the Republicans blocked the repeal.
- State House Democrats made a procedural maneuver to attempt to suspend House rules and bring the repeal bill to the floor for discussion. However, this action was rejected by the GOP majority, with only one Republican, Representative Matt Gress, crossing party lines to support bringing up the repeal bill.
- A similar endeavor to repeal the ban was obstructed by Republicans last week. Following persistent criticism of the law by Democrats both within and outside the state throughout the week, prominent figures like Trump and Lake recognized the political risks and advocated for a change in direction within the Legislature.

Ex-US marine sentenced to nine years for California abortion clinic attack: Chance Brannon firebombed a Planned Parenthood clinic in 2022 and had plans to attack ...
theguardian.com/us-news/2024/apr/16/ex-us-marine-sentenced-to-nine-years-for-california-abortion-clinic-attack
Quick Glance: Former Marine sentenced to 9 years in prison for firebombing California Planned Parenthood clinic
- A former marine was sentenced to nine years in prison by the Justice Department on Monday after using a Molotov cocktail to attack a Planned Parenthood clinic in Costa Mesa, California. Chance Brannon, along with his co-defendant Tibet Ergul, plotted attacks on the clinic and a potential target on the power grid in 'furtherance of a race war.'
- Brannon, 24, pleaded guilty in November 2023 to being involved in a conspiracy, malicious destruction of property by fire and explosives, possession of an unregistered destructive device, and intentionally damaging a reproductive health services facility in violation of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act.
- Planned Parenthood clinic attacks were abandoned due to law enforcement actions. Brannon was motivated by neo-Nazi ideology and planned further violent attacks. The National Abortion Federation reported a sharp increase in violence at abortion clinics in 2022.
- Brannon and Ergul also had plans to conduct an attack using a remote-detonated device during an LGBTQ+ pride event at Dodger Stadium, but were arrested two days prior. Before the arrest, Brannon even planned to rob Jewish individuals living in the Hollywood Hills.

Quick Glance: Overview: Tesla Stocks Plummet, Europe Business Surpasses Expectations
- World markets have brightened slightly this week, but Tesla is facing a critical earnings test, while Europe's business pulse has surprisingly been lively this month.
- Following the worst week on Wall Street since 2022, relief from easing Middle East tensions helped stabilize the situation on Monday. The chip giant Nvidia made a modest recovery from losses as Big Tech megacaps gear up for quarterly earnings releases.
- As the first of the 'Magnificent 7' Vanguard stocks, electric vehicle giant Tesla will report on Tuesday, having plummeted by a substantial 43% year-to-date and nearly 60% over the past two years amidst fierce price competition, declining EV demand, and governance/product concerns.
- While Big Tech jitters define this month's market fluctuations, investors will closely watch the upcoming results for a clearer perspective.
Kansas governor vetoes ban on gender-affirming care for minors and 2 anti-abortion bills
apnews.com/article/transgender-care-abortion-pornography-kansas-7b4141984334258017da842a3542570c
Quick Glance: Kansas Governor Kelly Blocks Gender Confirmation for Minors
- Kansas Governor Laura Kelly, a Democrat, vetoed a bill on gender confirmation for minors, leading to conflict with Republican state lawmakers.
- The package of measures now goes back to the state Legislature, where the GOP majority is likely to have enough votes to override the governor's veto. Lawmakers are expected to return for a veto session on April 29.
- The proposed measure would ban gender-affirming care for trans and non-binary youth in Kansas, including puberty blockers and surgeries, although surgical procedures on children are rarely performed.
- The law would also allow lawsuits against doctors who would lose their licenses if they provide gender-affirming treatments to minors, and state funds like Medicaid would not be used for such treatments.
