Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent traded accusations regarding alleged attempts to hide information related to Jeffrey Epstein at a Finance Committee hearing Wednesday, June 3. During his opening statement Wyden, the committee's ranking member, said that Bessent has been preventing the release of records showing payments by Epstein's clients.
