Bernie Sanders Has to Ask Three Times If Trump’s Billionaire Treasury Secretary Nominee Agrees The U.S. Is An Oligarchy
"Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) asked President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee to lead the Treasury Department, billionaire hedge fund manager Scott Bessent, if he agreed with President Joe Biden that the U.S. is heading toward becoming an oligarchy.
During Bessent’s Thursday confirmation hearing, Sanders began his line of questioning, saying, “Mr. Bessent, thanks very much for being in the office the other day. Mr. President, the United States today has more income and wealth inequality than has ever existed in the history of our country. You’ve got three people on top, Mr. Musk, Mr. Bezos, and Mr. Zuckerberg, who are now worth almost $1 trillion. That is more than half of the bottom of our society or some 170 million people.”"
