Treasury Sec. Attacks Elizabeth Warren in Freakout Over Trump’s Stocks

During a heated Senate Finance Committee hearing, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent dodged Senator Elizabeth Warren's pointed questions about Donald Trump’s controversial stock trading activities. Warren pressed Bessent on his efforts to ban congressional stock trading while Trump executed over 3,400 trades worth more than $250 million in early 2026. Bessent's refusal to directly address Trump’s trading highlighted the ongoing debate over transparency and ethical standards in politics. This clash underscores the broader issue of accountability and conflicts of interest in the highest levels of government.
