'Why are you bringing up USAID with me?': Bessent turns tables on Dem Rep. DelBene | House Hearing

A tense exchange unfolded during a House Ways and Means Committee hearing as Rep. Suzan DelBene questioned Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent about DOGE's access to sensitive government payment systems and a recent Government Accountability Office report. DelBene raised concerns about data security, unauthorized access, and the handling of sensitive payment information. The hearing became contentious when she referenced a DOGE staffer's handling of USAID-related information, prompting Bessent to repeatedly push back and question why USAID issues were being directed at the Treasury Department.
