Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent acknowledged Wednesday that he threatened to “kick ass” during a heated confrontation last year, while firmly denying reports that he threatened to punch the now-acting Director of National Intelligence “in the face.”

The unusual exchange emerged during a Senate Finance Committee hearing, where Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) pressed Bessent about reports surrounding a confrontation between the two Trump administration officials during the summer of 2025.

According to Bessent, one key detail in the widely circulated account was inaccurate.

While he denied threatening.

Despite a 2022 United States Supreme Court ruling liberals claim “outlaws abortion” the national abortion chain Planned Parenthood reports a record high number of abortions performed last year.

The record death toll is fueled by record high tax funding and abortion pills shipped through the federal mail to skirt state pro-life laws, even as Planned Parenthood closes physical abortion mills.

“A new report from American Life League’s STOPP program reveals that Planned Parenthood is using the Internet and telehealth platforms to defy state laws. America’s largest abortion provider is deliberately skirting legislated protections for expectant mothers and their preborn children while continuing to receive nearly $800 million in taxpayer funding,” ALL reports.

“According to STOPP’s 2025 Planned Parenthood Facilities Report, while the number of the abortion chain’s physical locations has dropped to its lowest level since 2006, its reach has grown dramatically through online appointments, virtual health centers, and abortion pill mobile apps,” ALL adds.

“Planned Parenthood is leveraging the Internet to skirt state abortion laws,” said Katie Brown Xavios, national director of American Life League. “Even in states where abortion pills are restricted, women can book virtual appointments and receive abortion drugs in the mail. This is not only unethical, it’s illegal.”

While it’s illegal to ship abortion pills through the mail under the Comstock Act, both President Joe Biden and Donald Trump publicly promised to not enforce the law.

In his June 2024 debate with then-President Joe Biden, Trump promised he “would not block” nationwide access to abortion pills, then further backed access to abortion pills as “pretty open and humane” in an August 2024 press conference at Mar-A-Lago.

After taking office, Trump continued the Justice Department’s involvement in opposing a lawsuit from pro-life groups seeking to ban abortion pills.

“The report details that between 2022 and May 2025, Planned Parenthood has shut down 66 brick-and-mortar locations, dropping 22 from its total facility count in the first five months of 2025. Yet in its 2023-2024 annual report, we see that the abortion conglomerate took credit for performing a record high number of abortions—402,230—in 2022-2023,” ALL reports.

“Planned Parenthood is adapting to find new ways of delivering abortion in the face of state attempts to shield women and children from harm,” said Xavios. “As legislators seek ways to defund the abortion vendor and Planned Parenthood is closing doors, the organization is infiltrating the virtual healthcare sphere, moving online to entice its clients to end the lives of their preborn children through convenient, impersonal telehealth services. In the face of declining facilities for on-site abortions, Planned Parenthood has cunningly leveraged the telehealth platform to prescribe abortion pills to women, even in states where the pills are illegal, furthering its largest moneymaking ‘service.’” 

“As Planned Parenthood increases its virtual footprint, one has to wonder if this is an attempt to counter the steep decline in brick-and-mortar facilities,” said Xavios. “Another possibility is that Planned Parenthood is desperate to regain market share from rogue abortion pill drug cartel traffickers that are snagging the abortion giant’s customers and profits via shadowy virtual operations. The truth likely lies somewhere in the middle, but one thing is certain: Planned Parenthood is panicking, and it’s changing its game.” 

“Every time we learn that a Planned Parenthood facility has closed its doors for good, we can rejoice in knowing that lives and souls will be saved without an abortion vendor in the neighborhood. However, Planned Parenthood is now utilizing the Internet to continue to earn big bucks off of its most profitable revenue stream—aborting preborn babies. And they’ve illegally played a part in trafficking more than 33,000 women across state lines to get those abortions,” said Katherine Van Dyke, American Life League’s lead researcher for the STOPP report.

“The landscape has changed in our post-Dobbs America,” said Xavios, “and the abortion giant is now capitalizing on its distribution of abortion pills to women, not only through the facilities themselves but through telehealth visits, its phone app, and its new virtual health centers. By making a digital end-run around the law—putting women, babies, and states’ rights at risk—Planned Parenthood is using the Internet to come right into our homes to do its dirty work.”

    We cannot stop the murder of helpless children? That speaks poorly of a nation that touts the most personal freedoms and rights of any nation on earth. Abortion is not an issue of women’s rights, it is an issue of legalized murder with victims who have no rights, no defense, no say. The entire Planned Parenthood organization from top to bottom should be charged with pre-meditated murder and tried in federal court. They are the scum of what is termed as humanity. Ha!
