Trump Treasury Secretary Threatened to Punch Admin Colleague 'in the F****** Face' [View all]

[Zorro]

A swanky MAGA dinner exploded when Trump’s Treasury secretary launched into a furious tirade.

Scott Bessent threatened to punch a Trump administration rival “in the f------ face” during a foul-mouthed rant in front of stunned colleagues.

According to Politico, Donald Trump’s Treasury secretary is then said to have suggested to housing czar Bill Pulte that the pair go outside where Bessent could “f------ beat [his] a--.”

The remarkable tete-a-tete took place last Wednesday at a fancy private Georgetown dinner attended by several Cabinet members—including Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, and DNI Tulsi Gabbard—and MAGA high-rollers. The event took place at Executive Branch, the private members club co-founded by Donald Trump Jr., according to the report.

It is the second alleged violent incident involving Bessent and a colleague, after he was reported to have had an altercation with Elon Musk in the White House in April that turned physical.
