Get Wall Street Out of The White House

We can’t have the fox guarding the hen house. With the nomination of Scott Bessent as Treasury Secretary, that’s exactly what’s going to happen.

The founder of Key Square Capital Management, Scott Bessent has had years of inconsistent returns that has resulted in a 90% decline in his hedge funds’ assets. But he won his biggest bet yet when he bet on Donald Trump winning a second term, and it paid off extraordinarily.

Bessent is now tapped to lead the government agency tasked with paying bills of the federal government and ensuring payments of Social Security and Veteran Benefits. The problem? Mr. Bessent has gone on record calling for deregulating the economy.

The deregulation Bessent has in mind won't grow the economy or create jobs, it'll just make him, Trump, and their billionaire friends even wealthier. We can’t have a Wall Street hedge fund manager running our economy.

Add your name to demand the Senate reject the nomination of Scott Bessent as Treasury Secretary.
