<p style="font-weight: 400;">CNN’s Anderson Cooper, put on the defensive by former New Hampshire GOP Governor Chris Sununu after Copper repeatedly accused Elon Musk and DOGE of lacking transparency, called Sununu a “d*ck” on national television on Tuesday.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Sununu started by slamming Cooper, who repeatedly accused DOGE and Musk of not being transparent in their actions, saying, “It amounts to a series of press releases, which is not really the same as transparency &#8230; It&#8217;s not transparency, either. It&#8217;s a tweet. After reporters began doing profiles on some of those staffers.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“I know what you&#8217;re not showing here,” Sununu stated. “Musk gave seven specific examples off the top of his head of where the corruption and fraud were. I know you didn&#8217;t you didn&#8217;t play the clips. He was talking about a contractor that had a three-month contract, he was paid for 20 years. He was talking about welfare benefits that were being paid to someone that was technically 150 years old. He was talking about line items in the Treasury that had no justification.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“But we didn&#8217;t see any of that, there&#8217;s no any &#8212; like he doesn&#8217;t present any actual evidence,” Cooper protested.</p>
<p>“He&#8217;s standing there in the Oval Office. Do you expect him to come in with 10,000 pages?” Sununu fired back. “And I have to be clear: To complain about this administration about transparency when this president takes open questions on a daily basis, yet Joe Biden didn&#8217;t show up for a press conference &#8212; six months is insane.”</p>
<p>“These guys are being extremely transparent. They don&#8217;t have to sit there and take the questions, but they do. It&#8217;s all on the website. It&#8217;s all out there,” he added.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Famous Zoomer and former federal prosecutor Jeffrey Toobin, who was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jeffrey-toobin-fired-from-new-yorker-following-investigation-into-lewd-act-on-zoom-call">reportedly caught masturbating</a> on a business Zoom call, accused, “It&#8217;s not transparency to say things that have no factual background. I mean to say we&#8217;re cutting &#8212; you know, we&#8217;ve found $1 billion or $1 trillion in waste with no specifics. That&#8217;s just talk, that&#8217;s not transparency.”</p>
<p>“It is 23 days in here, guys, 23 days,” Sununu replied. “You&#8217;re talking about $2.3 billion that was saved last year. These guys are saving $2.3 billion a day. That&#8217;s incredible.”</p>
<p>“That&#8217;s what they&#8217;re saying. But where&#8217;s the proof?” Toobin demanded.</p>
<p>“You&#8217;re waiting &#8212; you&#8217;re not going to be satisfied until he shows up with 10,000 pages?” Sununu said incredulously.</p>
<p>“He&#8217;s giving very specific things, but he&#8217;s not actually giving any evidence of that,” Cooper said loftily.</p>
<p>“It&#8217;s all going to come because what they also said was, if we have to go to Congress, we will go to Congress,” Sununu explained.</p>
<p>“But where are some of the details that have come out like the, you know, $59 million spent on luxury hotels. It&#8217;s actually not –” Cooper taunted.</p>
<p>“You&#8217;re talking about the FEMA money that was used for migrants? That was FEMA money for migrants. That&#8217;s okay now?” Sununu questioned.</p>
<p>“No, I&#8217;m not saying it&#8217;s okay. I&#8217;m not saying it&#8217;s okay. Don&#8217;t put words in my mouth,” Cooper snapped.</p>
<p>“So, would you stop that? Would you stop that process?” Sununu asked.</p>
<p>“Don&#8217;t be a d*ck,” Cooper responded.</p>
<p>At the end of the segment, Cooper apologized, saying, &#8220;Before we go, I want to apologize. I was mean; I was rude to you.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Former NH Governor Chris Sununu just completely destroyed Anderson Cooper in a back and forth about Elon Musk and DOGE.</p>
<p>Cooper responded by angrily telling Sununu to not be a &quot;d*ck&quot; on live tv.</p>
<p>Children are watching CNN right now and the face of their network just lost it. WOW. <a href="https://t.co/KtpBNmRhbr">pic.twitter.com/KtpBNmRhbr</a></p>
