Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent appeared before the Senate today to discuss the Treasury budget appropriation and respond to questions.
Senate Intelligence Committee Vice-Chairman Mark Warner could not contain himself and used his time on camera to question Secretary Bessent about something far away from Bessent’s sphere of influence. Warner began physically shaking and grasping for words to describe his outrage, his apoplexy and fury at the audacity of President Trump to appoint Bill Pulte as Acting Director of National Intelligence.
The first half of this segment is glorious.
.
Not since Matt Gaetz nomination to AG have we seen such fits of apoplexy coming from within congress to the interim appointment of a cabinet member in an ‘acting’ capacity. Forget the sand, the gears of government are reacting to an iron wrench in their machinery. It’s awesome.
They’ve already threatened to withhold FISA-702 reauthorization, and if we get lucky, they’ll threaten to eliminate the income tax.

President Trump has picked the right person for the job based on the reaction from Mark Warner. POTUS is over target!
I would love someone from the administration to respond to this question with, “The President thought it was more important at this time to appoint someone who was 100% loyal to this country, and to no other global, financial, corporate, or agency interests.”
Messaging ain’t their strong suit. If corruption were a ballroom we’d all be better informed by the WH.
The messaging is fine.
You just don’t like it.
I’ll bet he dosen’t have a second passport.
Those of us in Virginia have been dealing with this fraud for at least 24 years. He ran for Governor of Virginia in 2002 under a platform of “Republicans for Warner”. The whole sham was based on he was a successful business owner that would never be a liberal against business owners. Then he said he would never be Harry Reid’s “Dem” vote for critical issues. He sounded so centrist. What a lie. We have been trying to get rid of this POS ever since, but unfortunately for most of us in Virginia, Northern Virginia is so up the Dems agenda with government employees, we have been screwed ever since.. We have hated this guy ever since.
Yes and anyone with half a brain understand that Wannee is a two faced bandit…bill
Warner is a snake through and through. He turns my stomach.
Our other Senator, Little Timmy Kaine is a Demoncrat stooge of the first order and none too bright.
Together, they have acted against the will of a majority of Virginians. May God allow them to be unseated and our memory of these vile creatures to be erased.
Did I mention that I cannot stand either of them?
Ah yes, smooth – brained Timmy.
Witnessing the apoplexy was delicious! 😋
Loved it! 😍
I think that mr Warner’s panties are twisted in such a way that it caused him to wet himself.
Winning!!
This is almost fun. Cynical but true. God please protect Trump. May Your angels and Mary defeat Satan now and watch over our country.
Same here, YvonneMarie – praying!
Did he have a liquid lunch? He’s quivering and shaking. He’s a real corrupt POS!
If you have watched Warner for years like Sundance has……and reported on his shenanigans…Warner belongs behind bars.
Senator Warner looked like he was about to vapor lock.
He’s not a well man-physically, mentally or emotionally.
Vapor lock! LOL
You must be my age 😉
Our dog ate a steak bone and the passing of it looked eerily similar to what ole markie was going through
Gollum would often express fear through hissing and frantic movements. Similar reaction was on display today.
what’s with the ring on the pointer finger?
Tribute to Barney Frank
Gollum had one of those too. – “My precious.”
Warner looks like he smells really bad.
Elderberry.
I hope Warner just inspired someone to use this as an opportunity to create another “Hitler bunker rant” video. Wish I was talented enough to do it myself! 🙂
“Downfall”!
“Steiner will be the nominee!”
There is a You Tube channel which has numerous videos using the Downfall bunker rant on any subject imaginable.
Looks like Warner damn near lost control of his bowels!
Riotous.
Warner is such a low life, disingenuous rat. But I will think much more highly of him if he manages to get the FISA-702 dumped into the ash bucket. I might even send him a Christmas card.
High level physical stress indicators, including shaking hands, excessive eye blinking, repeated licking his lips, his eyes. Most likely high blood pressure. I would not be surprised at all if he had a full-fledged heart attack or a stroke. By many visible indicators, he’s a ticking time bomb physically.
He also has red capillaries on his nose which he is known for excessive alcohol use.
So true! I didn’t even notice it as that red nose has become his “standard” look. Wouldn’t doubt that he’d had a liquid lunch before this meeting began.
As ugly inside as he is on the outside.
Sometimes life pays people to an early exit…bill
Warner, who is treasonous, hat A LOT to hide. His attempted coup activities risk being exposed.
Pulte is just the man to expose the Senator. Warner knows it and Pulte knows Warner knows it. Better yet, President Trump knows it!
It warms my Tea Party heart to see corrupt Warner have fits of rage. GO AHEAD AND STOP FISA 702!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
This is glorious. LOL.
No joke! It’s like what ?yeah don’t threaten me with a good time lol no please don’t stop them from doing that!
That was great. From what I’ve read here, Warner was entangled in many questionable actions. Maybe fear, looks like it. Would the DNI release something related to Warner’s shady past. Maybe related to grand jury work. I thinks he’s getting a name to blame as another Trump lackey. The Lunacrates will use more colorful words.
This is such good news, I decided to have a beer in the barn before quitin time. lol
LOL!
BLESSINGS
Shucks, I envy you having a barn.
So the body of government that struggles to fund The Department of Homeland Security thinks Trump is embarassing.
>ronicain’t it¡
Ironic ain’t it!
Thank you Sundance, we really enjoy watching S. Bessent’s replies, he’s one of the best, and boy, he knows his stuff.
His example of leadership, doing his job should bring shame to the cons, but no. They , the elite are too arrogant and prideful.
God hates that.
Bessent is so great. Nobody has done more ass “kicking” than the Secretary, if you know what I mean.
The professional gays never mention him as one of their own. Nor does the Soros family, as he was high in that network too.
this site is infected with Mcafee malware
Nope. It’s your web browser doing it on certain sites. Do a G**gle search. And make sure you have a good Anti-Virus installed.
I have antivirus software and this website has never had an issue with malware, except with RINOs, Deep State and the Left.
What is the significance of the index finger ring? Is he signaling something?
Yeah. I noticed that right away. WTF? A SIGNAL.
Standard & Poor index?
His standard BS
His poor logic leaving him stranded and twisted
It’s equivalent to an Apple Watch.
He’s spying on his own body.
That’s what I thought it was .
Call their bluff trump…..go ahead…shelve fisa….do it . You want to take away recess appt?…save America?…let’s go ….
Warner’s head convulsing like that is gratifying.
warner is the epitome of moral rot, corruption and arrogance… control freak extraordinaire along w thune, tillis, cotton, barasso, murky.
God bless our Republic
Ya know, EVERY time I see and watch Mark Warner, all I think of is Eric Swalwell’s east coast big brother, without the charm and a little less self-destroying ironic humor!
I could see them as fraternity brothers in Animal House, with Mark playing Greg Marmalard and Eric as “Thank you, sir, may I have another” Chip Diller…. Kevin Bacon’s FINEST ROLE! 🙂
So what role for Pulte? Otter, Boone or Bluto
D-DAY!!!!! of course!!!!!!! 🙂
Bruce McGill came out of nowhere and NAILED EVERY SCENE! 🙂
Thanks for pointing out this post, MHP! I missed it earlier.
IMHO, the limp-noodle-dweeb-simpering-dufus Sen. James Lankford is very much like Flounder who became a “sensitivity trainer” after college.
Except a sensitivity trainer might actually be useful in some cases, sometimes.
Which current senator is most like Senator Blutarsky? The college freshman with seven years of 0.00 GPA who married Mandy Pepperidge?
It’s insulting to the thousands of scammers that have worked in the intelligence community.
That’s not rage, It is fear.
These politicians should eliminate taxes on Social Security for those making less than $50k a year; restore medicaid for poor sick people who don’t have work because they shipped it out of the country while importing waves of foreign replacement labor; end those practices to restore the domestic labor market and bring functional unemployment down to under 10%; etc. Oh, and ask forgiveness from the American people for engaging in these practices for decades.
While you are at it, bring in Warren Buffet to testify why he thought it was a great idea to dismantle the great American textile factories!
“Berkshire Hathaway” was all that remained . . . all the people so proud of making money off that, I hope at some point they have an epiphany!
I couldn’t wait to hear this.
Had to laugh seeing Bessent trying to suppress a smile when clown Warner was introduced.
Confidentiality. Warner you hypocrite! Just what was in your texts to Mr. Wolfe which was a part of the actions resulting in his admission and criminal conviction? Warner was swapping texts with Wolfe when Wolfe’s bad acts were caught:

Note refernces!
To quote the distinguished Bugs Bunny, “What a Maroon!”
I never thought Pulte will get that reaction… it just confirms Trump got a good pick..
I am personally outraged over this pick.
38 years old.
Zero experience for the job.
This is a DEI hire.
EDIT: I kid, I kid. It’s more likely that nobody at Fox News wanted the job.
You seem to have a problem w/ 38 years old … ???
When I was 28 years “experienced” … I was leading 20-30 USN plane Alpha strikes (depended on the target) off the carrier and into Harm’s Way …
FWIW, it seems like it all worked out …
Warner’s reaction is incontrovertible proof that Pulte is an inspired choice for DNI.
Yes.
And three cheers for Pulte after watching their reaction…bill
” … Warner began physically shaking and grasping for words to describe his outrage, his apoplexy and fury at the audacity of President Trump to appoint Bill Pulte as Acting Director of National Intelligence …”
Sorry … as much as I detest Warner and wanted “to see” the advertised Warner “shaking … grasping … outrage … apoplexy … and fury … ” I just didn’t see anything remotely approaching those characterizations of this fool and disgrace to the Country …
I like to pound the Dems when they “ask for it” and even when they don’t as they are actively trying to destroy the USA … but this time ??? I see nothing particularly out of Mark Warner’s usual play book … and I like to keep it “straight”.
Then you weren’t paying attention.
Totally paying attention and watched it 3 times … and thanks for your stupid comment.
Nice talkin’ to you … and from my 24 years livin’ and breathin’ in the Republic of Tejas … I noted they usually produce better than you …
But again, thanks for your “constructive” comment …
“They’ve already threatened to withhold FISA-702 reauthorization, and if we get lucky, they’ll threaten to eliminate the income tax. ”
Oh no! Please don’t throw us into *that* briar patch.
Right! I was just talking to my Mom about that – Uncle Remus telling the tale – that is what this is –
Brer Fox must have been totally flummoxed – like Warner – what I like is that timing is so exquisitely set!
Warner says “Classified secrets keep our country safe.” What??
Medical Instruction: In case of a heart attack, DO NOT RESUSCITATE
Thank You For Your Attention In This Matter!!!
what a dweesh
Mark Warner needs to put some ice on that!
Yea, I watched that summbitch shake like a dog……
how about senators also.
just one from each state. 4 year term maybe. only one term allowed.
Anyone in Congress claiming to care about classified information is rich, it really is.
MAGA! Pass the Winnamins and Cheetos!
What would Pulte do that Gabbard didn’t or wouldn’t do that has them so scared?
Warner et al want to vote down 702 not as a threat against PT but for self-protection as they fear the same they did to Trump won’t be done to him and his beach friends.
How much experience did 0bama have before he was elected the highest office in the land?
Once again I feel like Santos Malderone [movie ref, Absence of Malice) chuckling over the newspaper (or video clip in this case).
When Warner asked if Bessent if he had confidence about Pulte being able to handle both jobs, I can’t believe that Bessent resisted the urge to make a joke about Rubio.
Cue the Rubio meme😂
Do the posturing pustules in the Senate actually believe they have any credibility? OMG….
Mr. Pulte must be the absolutely BEST!!! I’m all for him.
