Trump's Treasury Secretary also had to move from his expensive Washington home to a military base

Scott Bessent, the U.S. Treasury Secretary, has relocated to a military base due to Iranian threats, joining other officials who have made similar moves. Reports indicate that Bessent left his $12 million home in Washington amid rising concerns over Iranian attacks on U.S. diplomats and officials. The U.S. Air Force has also withdrawn aircraft from bases in the UK due to these threats. Intelligence suggests that Iran is planning attacks against American targets, prompting heightened security measures. The Treasury Department remains committed to imposing sanctions on Iran despite these threats. The trend of officials living on military bases has become more common under the Trump administration, reflecting a shift in status among government officials.
