Inside Trump’s Treasury: Hasidic Insider Reveals All
Update: 2025-08-30
Description
In this episode of the ILTV Podcast with host Maayan Hoffman, meet Mitchell Silk, the first Hasidic Jew to ever serve in a U.S. Senate-confirmed role. As assistant secretary of the Treasury under President Donald Trump during his first term, he sat at the center of billion-dollar negotiations, including the historic 2019 China trade deal and the $94 billion airline rescue during COVID. But Silk’s story is just as personal: surviving a tsunami in Thailand, rescuing a rabbi in China, and practicing “dinner table diplomacy” to bridge cultures. His new book, “A Seat at the Table,” pulls back the curtain on politics, faith, and perseverance.
