A Philadelphia Phillies outfielder, known for his sharp tongue, is back in the headlines for delivering a pointed remark about the Mets and Juan Soto. His track record—ranging from calling a reporter’s question “stupid” to earning a benching for a heated exchange with his manager—shows no signs of cooling off.

In a heated exchange on CNN, Trump’s budget director Russell Vought defended his previous remarks about wanting to “traumatize” federal bureaucrats, arguing his focus is on reforming a “weaponized bureaucracy.”

China’s foreign ministry has labeled Vice President JD Vance as “ignorant and impolite” following his repeated references to “Chinese peasants” during a Fox News interview. The exchange highlights ongoing tensions between the two nations.
