When a foreign investor buys US treasuries, they first have to buy US dollars. Those dollars are not created by fiat. Someone has to sell them. The transaction takes place and the money base remains constant.
In an accounting sense, the US economy is a closed system. For every debit, there is an equal and opposite credit.
