His financial disclosure reveals a Treasury Secretary whose personal finances are entangled with the very decisions his office controls.
A few days ago I published a piece about Scott Bessent and the gates he controls. I documented his role chairing the committee reviewing the Saudi acquisition of Electronic Arts while Jared Kushner holds equity in the deal, his three refusals of Senate requests for Epstein's financial records, and his fund's appearance as a client of Ehud Barak's intelligence firm Ergo, the entity Epstein's own lawyer designed to control where Epstein's money went. If you have not read that piece, I would start there.
Today I want to go deeper, because the question I kept asking after I published was this: what does the paper trail look like underneath all of that? I wanted to find the documented financial reality that would explain why a man in Bessent's position might have very concrete, personal, monetary reasons to slow-walk certain investigations and fast-track certain approvals. So I pulled his financial disclosure, the document every Cabinet official is legally required to file before taking office, and I spent a significant amount of time going through it line by line.

It is amazing how she's been able to research these subjects that others would rather stay hidden.
