NOTUS reporter Daniella Diaz said she was dining in Adam's Morgan on Wednesday when she noticed the woman heckling Bessent.

"While dining with a guest at the Adams Morgan restaurant, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was heckled in front of dozens of diners by a woman who bashed the administration’s sanctions," a report noted the next morning.

He’s eating in this nice restaurant in Washington, D.C., when sanctions cause starvation across the world,” DiNucci explained. “We should be confronting them with our voice as much as we can because people across the world are affected by this.”

A person close to Bessent said the Trump official left “precisely because the restaurant owner refused to respect other diners and remove the heckler in question. Also, the food sucked.”

On June 22, 2018, a co-owner of The Red Hen restaurant in Lexington, Virginia, asked Sarah Huckabee Sanders, then the White House press secretary, to leave. The co-owner later cited Sanders' role in what they called the "inhumane and unethical" Trump administration in which Sanders had "publicly defended the president's cruelest policies." The Red Hen planned to cease operations at the end of December 2023 and rebrand as a new concept.[1]

3. I wish I had an opportunity to heckle him.

He's a creepy weasel. And he is a clear and present danger.

4. I certainly hope he was specifically questioned about

his meat choice, if it was steak.

Since he claimed meat prices are high because migrants were bringing diseased cows across the boarder….
