These People Deserve Each Other
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent got into a heated confrontation with Federal Housing Finance Agency chief Bill Pulte last week at the Executive Branch, the MAGA-chic private club in D.C., Politico reports.
Bessent accused Pulte, the MAGA influencer ginning up mortgage fraud claims against Trump foes, of bad-mouthing him to Trump, leading to this diatribe from the sitting Treasury secretary: “Why the fuck are you talking to the president about me? Fuck you. I’m gonna punch you in your fucking face.”
Co-owner Omeed Malik attempted to intervene in the confrontation, prompting this memorable exchange:
“It’s either me or him,” Bessent said to Malik. “You tell me who’s getting the fuck out of here.”
“Or,” he added, “we could go outside.”
“To do what?” asked Pulte. “To talk?”
“No,” Bessent replied. “I’m going to fucking beat your ass.”
Even Trump-world insiders described the scene to Politico as “bonkers” and “unhinged.”
No need to mention this is conduct wholly unbecoming to a person of his stature.
It feels very appropriate if the White House starts looking more like a white trash trailer park, complete with drunken fights in the yard.
Needs a broke down Jeep and a pit bull chained to a rusted fridge.
Idiocracy was supposed to be 500 years in the making.
We’re on the accelerated Biff Tannen timeline.
Well, it’s been Trump’s speedrun.
Near total accuracy. Just missing a commode sitting forlornly to the side.
Drunken fights in the yard have been scheduled.

Idiocracy ain’t got shit on this admin
it’s tough to quantify the output when you combine utter stupidity and unredeemable hate. logarithmic increases in suffering are illustrating it though.
