U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called out The New York Times<\/a> at its own summit on Wednesday, accusing it of publishing inaccurate stories about President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

At the 2025 DealBook Summit in New York City, Bessent criticized the paper<\/a> for its recent story alleging Trump\u2019s health is declining and said it had lost credibility.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“You know, in 20, 30, 40, 50 years \u2014 The New York Times is no longer the paper of record,” he told New York Times columnist and event moderator Andrew Ross Sorkin<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bessent made the claim in light of The Times\u2019 report last week stating that Trump\u2019s energy levels appear to be declining in office.<\/p>\n

The piece, titled, “Shorter Days, Signs of Fatigue: Trump Faces Realities of Aging in Office,” analyzed Trump\u2019s presidential schedule, reporting “fewer public events” than he had during his first term and suggested that he typically appears between noon and 5 p.m.<\/p>\n

The article<\/a> also claimed that Trump dozed off during a recent Oval Office meeting.<\/p>\n

After the report was published on Nov. 26, Trump fired back<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“The Creeps at the Failing New York Times are at it again,” he wrote. “I won the 2024 Presidential Election in a Landslide, winning all Seven Swing States, the Popular Vote, and the Electoral College by a lot. I one [sic] our Nation\u2019s Districts by 2750 to 550, a complete wipeout. I settled 8 Wars, have 48 New Stock Market Highs, our Economy is Great, and our Country is RESPECTED AGAIN all over the World, respected like never before\u2026 To do this requires a lot of Work and Energy, and I have never worked so hard in my life.”<\/p>\n

Bessent referenced the article during the summit, stating, “You know, I read this article, like \u2018President Trump is slowing down\u2026 It is 100 percent fake. He only called me twice at 2 in the morning last week, instead of three times.”<\/p>\n

“I actually don’t read the New York Times anymore… occasionally people send me articles, and there’s just this fever swamp,” he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Some critics online noted Bessent was diminishing the Times’ influence despite appearing at an event sponsored by the paper.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, the official accused the outlet of a double standard, saying it\u2019s fixated on Trump\u2019s health, while not being concerned about former President Joe Biden\u2019s health<\/a> during his time in office.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We just had a three-hour Cabinet meeting yesterday, Andrew,” Bessent said on Wednesday. “For 10 months, the Biden administration did not have a Cabinet meeting. How are you going to invoke the 25th Amendment if the Cabinet secretaries never see the president \u2014 which they didn\u2019t.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

A Times spokesperson previously defended its reporting on Trump’s health after the president lashed out at the paper and called out reporter Katie Rogers by name.<\/p>\n

“The Times\u2019 reporting is accurate and built on first-hand reporting of the facts. Name-calling and personal insults don\u2019t change that, nor will our journalists hesitate to cover this administration in the face of intimidation tactics like this. Expert and thorough reporters like Katie Rogers exemplify how an independent and free press helps the American people better understand their government and its leaders,” a Times spokesperson wrote<\/u><\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n
