Senate Hearing Turns Fiery as Senators and Union Boss Clash

A congressional hearing turned heated when Republican Senator Markwayne Mullin challenged Sean O'Brien, the president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, to a fight. The exchange, which included insults and threats, lasted for several minutes before Senator Bernie Sanders intervened. Sanders urged them to focus on the economic issues being discussed at the hearing, emphasizing the role of unions in supporting working families. After the hearing, Sanders called the exchange "absurd," while Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell declined to comment on the incident.
