Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent had little to say about Elon Musk’s latest political venture, except that the former Trump adviser is unpopular. Bessent suggested that Musk’s “America Party” would hold little sway with voters,

"The America Party is formed to give you back your freedom," Musk said, days after Trump debated deporting him.

Elon Musk said he's carrying out his threat to form a new political party after his fissure with President Trump, announcing on social media that he would form the America Party in response to the president's sweeping new law.
