.@SecScottBessent on tariffs refunds: "The Democrat AGs who filed the ridiculous lawsuit against this Administration wanted the money to go back to the payer of record — so that is corporate welfare. The American people had that money, and if I hear another Democrat legislator make the inane remark 'the American people should get the money' — the American people HAD THE MONEY in the U.S. Treasury and we were forced to give it back."
