You know Scott Besson.
Scott Besson, he's not Steve Bannon.
His hair's not on fire every day.
He's a safe pair of hands.
We had this big fight with Elon Musk back in when Elon was down at Mar-a-Lago in December, January of 24 and 25, when Elon Musk was putting forward, wait for it, Howard Lutnick as secretary of the treasury.
And we were pushing hard Scott Besant.
What I continue to say over and over again, given what president Trump is going to do, given the disruption president Trump is going to have, you're going to need a,
a safe pair of hands for the capital markets as Secretary of Treasury because you've got Powell over at the Fed who's, let's say this, not with the program.
And Scott Besson is steady-eddy, and he's done a magnificent job of executing on President Trump's economic plan at the same time keeping the capital markets.
I mean, hey, folks, the 10-year Treasury, as much as it bounces, is only at 4.3%, right?
You could have had a Secretary of Treasury
that with a couple of missteps or being a promoter like Howard Lutnick, you would have had five or six and your life would have been quite changed.
And President Trump's second term would right now be in free fall.
But Scott Besant was there.
So when Scott Besant gets with Powell, and let's say this, they're not besties.
When you get these two guys together and they say, hey, you know what we should do?

This cyber capability can take down an entire money center bank in seconds.
Let me repeat that.
