  • Scott Bessent, President-elect Trump's pick to lead the Treasury Department, went head to head with Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., over whether the U.S. is headed toward an oligarchy.

The article discusses a contentious exchange during a Senate Banking Committee hearing between Sen. Bernie Sanders and President Biden's nominee for Treasury undersecretary for international affairs, Brent Neiman. The confrontation arose when Sanders questioned Neiman about Biden's comments labeling Japan and South Korea as "xenophobic" due to their immigration policies. Neiman, instead of directly addressing Biden's remarks, turned the tables by questioning Sanders about his own past comments on immigration, specifically referencing Sanders' 2015 statement that "open borders is a Koch brothers proposal." This led to a heated back-and-forth where Sanders defended his stance on immigration and criticized Biden's choice of words, while Neiman maintained that the U.S. should not comment on other countries' immigration policies. The exchange highlighted the complexities of discussing immigration policy and the political sensitivities involved.
