The Treasury Secretary deleted an analysis from the Yale Budget Laboratory, saying families will get worse this year.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent claimed in his alma mater study that households will be reduced by about $2,400 this year due to President Donald Trump’s tariffs. “I will point out that the Yale Budget Lab consists primarily of Biden and Democratic alumni, so they have a special point. It’s not nonpartisan,” Bessent said on Thursday. “It’s unfortunately my alma mater, which makes me sad.” Bessent conducted an analysis from Yale’s budget lab, which graduated from Yale in 1984, after Joe Scarborough pressured him to pressure him on the economic impact of Trump’s aggressive tariff agenda.
