Sec. Bessent Slams the WSJ Amid Iranian Threats: ‘We Pleaded with [the Editor] Not to Print the Location of My House, But She Did Anyway’

‘Highly irresponsible and dangerous’

TRANSCRIPT:

BESSENT: "And what I will tell you, Joe, I do want to say that one of the reasons I’ve had to move is because the Wall Street Journal printed a photo of my house the day I bought it that has geolocate on it, and in a highly irresponsible way, the editor, we pleaded with her not to print the location of my house, but she did anyway. Highly irresponsible and dangerous. And things like that have to stop, too."
