Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent threatens housing regulator Bill Pulte in explosive Trump admin fight: ‘Punch you in your f—ing face’

WASHINGTON — Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Bill Pulte, director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, got into an explosive argument last week — with threats of physical violence involved, The Post has confirmed.

Two sources say that Bessent, 63, threatened to beat up Pulte, 37, for allegedly trash-talking him to President Trump, two sources said.

At one point, the Treasury chief lashed out at Pulte, saying: “Why the f— are you talking to the president about me? F— you.”

“I’m gonna punch you in your f—ing face,” added Bessent.

Pulte’s response was not immediately clear.

The shouting match was first reported by Politico and broke out at the Executive Branch social club in DC’s Georgetown neighborhood.

The club was co-founded by banker Omeed Malik and first son Donald Trump Jr.
