Fox Host Gets Into Fiery Exchange With James Carville On-Air

James Carville and Sean Hannity shared a fiery exchange live on-air.

The journalist backed the commander-in-chief, emphasizing how Trump was getting rid of "all the waste, fraud and abuse" while highlighting all of the "accomplishments" of DOGE during the Republican leader's first weeks back in office.
However, the political consultant's attention was diverted by a graphic on the screen about "questionable spending" at the U.S. Agency for International Development — which reportedly maintains a budget of about $40 billion compared to the $6.8 trillion federal budget.

"I did the math, Sean, it actually comes to something like 0.014 percent," Carville claimed. "So, take the $41 billion, put it against the $6 trillion and see what you've done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States."
When the two broached the subject of spending under President Joe Biden, Hannity alleged the Democratic Party is for "tens of billions spent abroad for a Green New Deal, DEI woke agenda and transgenderism."

"Well, we got to get that $100 million for condoms for Hamas," Carville sarcastically spat at Hannity.
After the conservative broadcaster went on a rant about how Trump made the country "energy independent" for the first time in 75 years despite the left trying to go against it, he told his guest, "I think you need a new playbook, I really do."

"I'm not too worried about the high school track meet," Carville said, slamming Hannity's ignorant remarks about transgender athletes.
"But I am worried about people having affordable health care and that's the difference between our two parties," the strategist made clear.

Hannity recently sat down with Trump and his right-hand man Elon Musk to discuss their drastic attempts to curb waste.
"This is where we are as a society and I hate to do this to you, but I'm going to do it anyway. You're doing all of these things — your DOGE. Nobody at DOGE gets paid a penny, correct?" the news anchor asked.
"Well, actually, some people are federal employees," the Telsa founder corrected. "But I think it's fair to say that the software engineers at DOGE could be earning millions of dollars a year and instead of earning a small fraction of that as federal employees."
