Why are Bond Yields rising?

One would think that with an inflation hawk appointed as Fed Chair and an apparent incoming shift in Fed policy, bond yields would fall as investors expect lower inflation.

Again, maybe I'm missing something, I guess I don't understand the irrationality of this current market.

Or maybe I'm just upset my portfolio is suffering today.
