Trump floats military 'intervention' as bond yields snap back to 19-year highs
Asked whether he'd direct Treasury Secretary Bessent to intervene again after long-dated yields climbed right back from their 19-year high, Trump's answer turned heads: "The ultimate intervention is our military. And if we have to use that, we will." Bellicose one-liner aside, his "not at all" about ordering the buyback suggests the White House and Treasury aren't even flipping from the same playbook.
