Bessent mocks Sen Warren, wishes her 'Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day' in response to letter

Bessent said Warren lacked knowledge of financial markets and mocked her request with a handwritten Indigenous Peoples' Day note.

  • On Saturday, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent sent a sharply worded reply to Senator Elizabeth Warren regarding her inquiry into rising 10-year Treasury yields, characterizing her letter-writing campaign as participation in 'tabloid fodder.'
  • Over the past 21 months, Warren has sent more than 100 letters to the Treasury Department seeking information about borrowing costs, requesting Bessent provide answers by October 21.
  • Bessent refuted Warren's claims that yield surges were self-inflicted, arguing she was a 'cheerleader for the Biden Administration's reckless spending' and voted for a $5 trillion tax hike while inflation hit a 40-year high.
  • The letter included a pointed jab at Warren's disputed Native American heritage claims, wishing her a 'Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day in advance,' echoing President Donald Trump's long-standing mockery of her past statements.
  • Bessent concluded by jokingly offering Warren a 'Foreign Exchange for Dummies tutorial,' suggesting that if she earns a passing grade by the 'Yale metric,' he would also provide a 'Fixed Income for Dummies' guide.
