Former MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan laid into Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) in an aggressive sparring match Wednesday that sent them both hurling jabs at each other as the GOP lawmaker twice insisted the journalist “be quiet.”

The combative exchange unfolded during a discussion on “Piers Morgan Uncensored” on YouTube revolving around the immigration arrest of former Columbia University graduate student and Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil. During the back-and-forth, Crenshaw held firm that the arrest was not only legal, but also justified given Khalil’s “incitement of violence.”

Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) went on a rant against former Fox News host Tucker Carlson during an interview with Piers Morgan released Wednesday, firing another salvo in the public feud between the two.

"Why don't we try and end where you both agree on something, all right?" asked the host of "Piers Morgan Uncensored" on YouTube. He steered the conversation away from fellow guest and former MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan demanding Crenshaw answer for the pardons President Donald Trump issued to January 6 insurrectionists. "Dan's ongoing spat with Tucker Carlson. Now this began when you were caught, you thought you were off camera, still on mic, saying he was the worst person, you've talked a lot on Twitter about your beef, you've said, I'm going to f'ing kill him."

A top House Democrat exploded in anger during a committee hearing on Wednesday, outraged over the absence of Elon Musk, the leader of President Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), whose team has turned their attention to Social Security. Musk this week has suggested there is tremendous fraud and waste in “entitlements,” which would also suggest a focus on Social Security.

“Most of the federal spending is entitlements. So that’s the big one to eliminate. That’s the sort of half trillion, maybe six, 700 billion,” Musk said on Monday.

Deputy assistant to President Donald Trump Sebastian Gorka unloaded a torrent of insults in a combative interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper, where he lashed out at the host, the media, the Biden administration – and still saved some ammo for a foreign terrorist who he labeled a “piece of human filth."

The remarks came Wednesday as Gorka appeared on CNN amid the Trump administration’s loosening of rules for U.S. military airstrikes. But Gorka came ready to spar and quickly snapped back at Tapper when the host queued up a question about USAID cuts by first referencing The Washington Post.

Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) said Democrats should "shut up" about the negative effects of President Donald Trump's tariffs during an interview on Fox Business on Wednesday.

"No pain, no gain — that's what we used to tell our football players," said Tuberville, who coached college football before he entered politics. "There's going to be some pain with tariffs. But tariffs got us back to the strongest economy in the world when President Trump was in the first time. He knows what he's doing. Democrats, get out of the way, shut up. You have no answers, you didn't do anything right in the last four years with Joe Biden. We have a game plan, Trump has a game plan."

MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace championed the Wall Street Journal editorial board during her Wednesday show after they shamed President Donald Trump for his trade war with Mexico, Canada and China.

Wallace called it a "master-troll" because the board wrote that the "trouble with trade wars is that once they begin they can quickly escalate and get out of control."

During an Oval Office rant on Wednesday, Trump insisted that Senate Democrats must "behave" by voting for a Republican budget bill that would extend tax cuts mainly for the wealthy and large corporations.
