Pocahontas is at it again! Senator Elizabeth Warren completely lost her composure during Thursday's confirmation hearing, erupting into a screaming match with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent over President Trump's harmless joke about keeping Federal Reserve nominee Kevin Warsh accountable.

The fireworks started when Warren began her typical grandstanding routine, clutching her pearls over Trump's comments that he might sue Warsh if the Fed nominee doesn't deliver the interest rate cuts American families desperately need. Instead of recognizing Trump's obvious humor, the Massachusetts Democrat went into full meltdown mode.

Social media immediately lit up over the heated exchange. Fox News Politics reported the dramatic confrontation, tweeting: "HEATED EXCHANGE: Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent erupted into a shouting match Thursday over President Trump's joke about suing Fed nominee Kevin Warsh if he doesn't cut interest rates."

"This is exactly what Americans voted for - a President who will hold the Federal Reserve accountable instead of letting them crush working families with high rates," one Trump supporter posted online.

Bessent, who has been masterfully implementing Trump's America First economic agenda, wasn't having any of Warren's theatrics. The Treasury Secretary forcefully defended the President's right to expect results from his nominees, especially when it comes to lowering the crushing interest rates that have hammered American homebuyers and small businesses.

What's truly rich is watching Warren - the same politician who built her career on a lie about her heritage - lecture anyone about inappropriate behavior. This is the woman who spent years falsely claiming Native American ancestry for personal gain, and now she's clutching pearls over Trump making a joke?

The truth is, Warren can't stand that Trump is back in charge and actually fighting for regular Americans instead of the globalist elites she serves. While she was busy screaming in committee rooms, Trump's economic team is working to bring down costs and restore prosperity.

Patriots across social media celebrated Bessent's refusal to back down to Warren's unhinged antics. When will Democrats learn that their temper tantrums don't work anymore?

Warren has zero understanding of how the real economy works. I've been running my business for 20 years and these Democrat senators live in a fantasy world where government controls everything.

Warren always loses it when she doesn't get her way. Trump was clearly making a lighthearted comment and she turns it into a constitutional crisis. Classic Elizabeth!

Exactly! She's been unhinged since 2016 and can't take a joke.

Bessent handled that perfectly - stayed calm and professional while Warren was having her meltdown. This is why we need adults in charge of our economic policy.

What was the actual joke Trump made? The article mentions it but doesn't give the full context.

He joked about wanting to have more input on Fed decisions. Warren acted like he declared martial law or something.
