Things are getting so tense in the U.S.-Iran conflict, even Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent got yanked mid-interview to speak to President Trump!

The whole thing played out on camera — Bessent was chatting with Sky News’ Wilfred Frost for “The Master Investor Podcast” Thursday inside the Treasury Department’s Cash Room … when an aide suddenly stepped in and summoned him to the White House Situation Room.
It quickly turned into a drop-everything moment — his mic getting pulled off his jacket as he rushed out — while Frost sat there looking stunned, insisting it was no problem. Not that it mattered either way.
Upon his return, Bessent said he spoke with Trump about a number of issues … adding the president was in great spirits and believes the Iran mission is moving ahead of schedule.
He even got a little personal, bringing up his own teenager possibly joining the military — saying, “I can give this team my highest compliment, from President Trump, to the head of the Joint Chiefs, to the Secretary of War. I would trust my child’s life in their hands.”
Meanwhile, Trump fired off his own message Friday morning … calling Iran’s leaders “deranged scumbags” and warning them to brace for what’s coming next.
