Dem: oligarchy controlled by wealthy; Bessent: Biden gave George Soros Medal; Trump 10% Credit Card

When Bernie ‘three houses’ Sanders brings up Biden’s claim last night that America is moving towards an oligarchy controlled by a few wealthy people, Scott Bessent reminds him that he just gave George Soros the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

BERNIE SANDERS: “I know it’s fashionable to be beating up on China. It’s good politics…We’re not going to solve this crisis without working with China.”

LEE ZELDIN: Yes we need to work with people who don’t align with us, but let’s not forget, “right now, China is an adversary.”

Senator Bernie Sanders: “Trump said he wants to cap credit card interest rates at 10%. I agree with him. Will you be supportive of what Trump and I would like to do?”

Treasury Secretary-designate Scott Bessent: “When President Trump takes office, and if I am confirmed, I will follow what President Trump wants to do.”

BESSENT: “President Trump and myself are committed to addressing the affordability crisis. Part of the affordability crisis stems from this great inflation that we’ve had since 2021… Inflation is one of the great killers for working families.”

Treasury Secretary-designate Scott Bessent breaks down three ways the Trump administration could use tariffs:

1. Remedying unfair trade practices

2. Generalized tariffs as revenue raisers

3. Tariffs for negotiations
