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.

Former Rep. Michael “Ozzie” Myers (D-Pa.) has pled guilty to stuffing ballots for multiple Democratic candidates.

Myers represented Pennsylvania’s 1st District for less than four years. On Oct. 2, 1980, the U.S. House of Representatives voted 376 to 30 to expel Myers for his role in the Abscam scandal.

The lopsided vote made Myers the first Member of Congress to experience the indignity of expulsion since 1861. He subsequently served three years in prison for bribery and conspiracy.

The ex-congressman became a campaign consultant following his release.

Prosecutors indicted Myers in 2020 for stuffing ballot boxes in Democratic primaries in 2014, 2015 and 2016, bribing a Philadelphia elections judge, falsifying records, voting more than once in an election and obstructing justice.

That judge, Domenick J. DeMuro, pleaded guilty to separate charges in 2020.

Per Fox News:

Myers also admitted to conspiring to commit election fraud with another elections judge, Marie Beren, who pleaded guilty to the scheme in October 2021.

“Voting is the cornerstone of our democracy,” U.S. Attorney Jennifer Arbittier Williams said in a press release. “If even one vote has been illegally cast or if the integrity of just one election official is compromised, it diminishes faith in process.”

Law & Crime further reports:

Initially charged in an eight-count indictment in July 2020, Myers saw his charges balloon to a 13-count indictment the next year. Prosecutors say that Myers parlayed his time as a congressman to bill for services as a “political consultant,” largely focused on securing victories for local judicial candidates for Philadelphia’s Court of Common Pleas or Municipal Court.

“Myers also exercised influence and control in Philadelphia’s 39th Ward by distributing cash payments to various election officials and supporting family, friends, and allies for elective office in the 39th Ward,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Eric Gibson wrote in a 16-page plea memo on Monday. “Myers installed Ward Leaders, Judges of Elections, and Democratic State Committee Persons in south Philadelphia Wards.”

    Dems prep for midterms & 2024

    Are the Democrats that have already been arrested for election fraud still claiming there is no voter fraud?
    How about the SCOTUS who refused to even consider the idea of voter fraud? Is ANYONE looking out for American citizens?

    DIVERSION, DIVERSION, DIVERSION!

    To focus on the 2020 election theft is to divert our attention from the only real solution for America present state affairs – a return to Yahweh as America’s Sovereign and thus His moral law as supreme. See Deuteronomy 4:4-8, 28:1-14, Psalm 19:7-11, etc.

    Even if the election theft hadn’t occurred, Trump is, at best, a temporary fix for only a few of America’s woes, while at the same time helping to perpetuate what was a biblically egregious government (aka Constitutional Republic) from its inception.

    Not to mention Trump’s own abominable biblical violations, such as his promotion of sodomites in both government and private life.

    In turn, Trump only helps to further America’s suicidal trek to the precipice of moral depravity and destruction, as do all civil “leaders” who have sworn allegiance to the biblically seditious Constitution, whether true to their allegiance or not.

    For evidence, see free online book “Bible Law vs. the United States Constitution: The Christian Perspective,” in which every Article and Amendment by the Bible, at Bible versus Constitution dot org. Click on the top entry on our Online Book page.

    Didn’t trust the system much before, I ALWAYS vote paper. Almost 70 years old and AKWAYS voted. Truthfully, I don’t trust the system AT ALL any longer. Democrats cheat and Republicans let them get away with it.

    Tellingit

    Obviously “fake news.” We’ve been told over and over, and over, ad nauseam, there was _no_ election fraud in 1020. So…this has gotta be “fake news.” Right?

      Tellingit

      Oops. Not “1020” as written, but clearly, “2020.”

    Robert Mazzeo

    Does it really surprise ANYONE that dems were eager participants in election fraud, from local elections on up to the presidential “election”? I know I wasn’t surprised…
