Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is back on Capitol Hill to testify before the House Ways and Means Committee on the department’s priorities, one day after he refused to say whether President Donald Trump and his family would still get immunity from IRS audits after the administration abandoned plans for a $1.776 billion compensation fund that would have benefited the president’s allies

Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., accused the treasury secretary of intentionally “dodging questions” about the president’s settlement.

Scott Bessent was stunned into silence when he was asked who the treasury secretary is.

Bessent will field questions from members of the House Ways and Means Committee about Trump's proposed budget.
