| 0:00.0 | Donald Trump is having a terrible morning, some devastating headlines. |
| 0:04.5 | So he sent his Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to Capitol Hill to lie about the economy, |
| 0:11.5 | to lie about tariffs. |
| 0:13.5 | And moments ago, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was caught committing perjury. |
| 0:19.5 | He was asked a question about whether he, when he was running a private equity company, |
