If a bank lends money to itself, it pays no interest because it is paying the money to itself. Why then don't they lend money to themselves and buy Treasuries for a guaranteed profit with no risk. Or is this what they are already doing on the sly?

To prevent or delay market price discovery / "mark-to-market".

That's why US banks are bidding top dollar on own foreclosures and prop up the market price albeit at lower volumes.
