Hecklers disrupt Bessent's congressional hearing, call him "war criminal" saying sanctions kill Iranians and Cubans, shouting "HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU!" just like the doom goblin. Bailiffs eject them from chamber. Bessent answers them calmly and with reason that goes right over their shrieky heads.

Killing Iranians and Cubans is the job of their respective governments. They do it quickly and efficiently, and even starve them better.
To: All
If Sanctions were that effective than those countries would have surrendered already.

The people in those countries will pry power from the cold, dead hands of the despots, and thank Donald J. Trump and Scott Bessent for “starving” them, which at most paves the way for their final victories.

A threat to democracy and an insurrection. Arrest them and treat them just like the J7ers were. Investigate the rats who let them in.

If Sanctions were that effective than those countries would have surrendered already. That's just silly. The whole idea of sanctions is to inhibit their ability for mischief without expending the blood and treasure forcing them into surrender.

You do not understand national economics, do you?
Countries can go on suffering for a long time before they surrender. Because surrender is usually followed by demise of the ruling party.
Even cancer takes it’s time to kill the patient. Only things instantaneous are quick pick scratch and win lottery tickets.

Bessent kept his cool. Good man! Wonder who’s agitating the agitators? The protestors really don’t know the whole story. Iran & Cuba has killed lots of their own people.

So I guess the sanctions aren’t as bad as the protestors were claiming.

“How Dare You?” isn’t that the battle cry for Greta Thunberg’s Jew Hating Fan Club Tree House?

The bill of rights can be a dangerous thing in the wrong hands. Once they know how to use it against you civil and legal remedies are obsolete.

Sanctions are hurting Iran as much as it would hurt me if my social security check was cut by 90%. If they were not hurting Iran, why would anyone need to protest the sanctions?

Worse than 9-11 & Pearl Harbor! Unruly protestors in the Capital are an assault on Democracy.
To: Sequoyah101
Bill of rights specifies “peaceably assemble”. This is not that. Nor were the theatrics around Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings. Congress is the “sacred citadel of democracy,” except when Dems have an axe to grind.
