Trump allies sold sponsorships to what appeared to be a Treasury event. It wasn’t.

In a surprising turn of events, it has come to light that allies of Donald Trump sold sponsorships for what was presented as a Treasury event, which the Treasury has now clarified it did not approve. This private event, scheduled for October 21 and featuring Scott Bessent, raises serious questions about the legitimacy of the marketing tactics used and the potential implications for transparency in political fundraising. Such actions could undermine public trust in government institutions and highlight the blurred lines between politics and private interests.
