The USA Treasury is getting ready to refinance $7 trillion in USA tbills
over the next couple of months from 2% to 4 - 5% interest rate.  Enjoy
your inflation.

 1)  A treasury bill has a maturity date between 4 weeks and 52 weeks.
     The interest rate is fixed for the term of the bill, therefore
     they won't all be "refinancing" in the next couple of months.  The
     current tbill rate is 4.2%, which is down from 5.25% a year ago.
      TBill rates historically have averaged just under 3%.
 2)  TBills make up 25% of the total debt, the rest is in bonds and notes.
 3)  100% of the coming inflation is due to tariffs and their knock-on effects.
 4)  Higher Tbill rates are good for those who hold them.
 5)  Your irrational devotion to the orange clown is pathetic, inflation
     and the national debt will be far worse at the end of his term than
     they are today as he completely tanks the economy.

So there are no 10 year tbills ?  Wrong.
The rest is dismissed since you do not understand finance and your emotional outburst.
