'Having your butt handed to you': Energy Secretary made to answer for Trump - The Briefing w/Jen Psaki - MS NOW



In addition to bizarrely declaring his love for inflation, Donald Trump also announced that the U.S. is taking Iranian oil.

Rep. Emilia Sykes (D-OH) took advantage of the fact that Trump's Energy Secretary, Chris Wright, was testifying before the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology, and pressed Wright to address Trump's statements, leaving the Secretary at a loss. Sykes spoke with Jen Psaki about the exchange. - Aired on 06/10/2026.
