Scott Kenneth Homer Bessent (born August 1962) affectionately known as Soros Scotty is a gay married former hedge fund manager and Soros consigliere.[1] He is the Trump 2.0 Secretary of Treasury, as confirmed by the U.S. Senate.
| Scott Bessent | |
|---|---|
| United States Secretary of the Treasury From: January 28, 2025 – present | |
| President | Donald Trump |
| Predecessor | Janet Yellen |
| Successor | Incumbent (no successor) |
| Information | |
During Bessent's confirmation vote a man was arrested with knives and a Molotov cocktail. The offender told Capitol Police, "I'm here to kill Scott Bessent".[2]
While negotiating the so-called "rare earths" trade deal with Ukrainian Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko in February 2025, Bessent yelled at Svyrydenko saying, "You have six minutes to accept the American terms of the deal, or the negotiations would be over", according to The New York Times.[3]
Prof. Jeffrey Sachs, curator of the "Happiness Index" which claims Americans are more "happy" than Russians[4] with its anti-LGBT propaganda laws said of Bessent:
| “ | I’ve never seen anything like this Treasury Secretary during my career. He has the least interest in the US economy of any Treasury Secretary, I think, in our modern history. He’s basically there as an enforcer of attacks on other countries. You know, he was put in because he was an associate [of Soros and] was part of the attack on the British Pound. He speaks like a gangster, like a thug. ‘We’re going to destroy your economy. We’re going to bring down your currency.’ He calls that economic statecraft. But his knowledge, awareness, and concern about the US economy itself is basically zero.
I can’t recall one intelligent statement that he has made about the US economy or the budget. [The US economy is] something outside of his domain. He is there as an enforcer of US sanctions regimes against other countries. He’s there to attack other currencies, to attack the economy of Iran, to attack the economy of Cuba, to attack the economy of all these countries that Trump threatens every day. Not much comes of any of this anymore. People shrug off when Trump says, “We’re going to destroy your economy if you don’t listen to us,” as he said just today about countries that don’t follow the US line on Iran. It’s basically shrugged off. But these statements are so shrill, they’re unbelievable coming from anybody of any responsibility in any political system, much less the president of the United States. But this is what Bessent’s role seems to be. I’m sure I have missed statements but I cannot recall one intelligent comment--even one comment--about the US economy, about the budget, about the deficit, about the debt, about its trajectory, about US economic development strategy. Nothing. He’s just not a Treasury secretary in the normal sense.[5] |

According to Prof. Steve Hanke, Bessent is a market interventionist and does not believe in a free market.
