Jenna Bush Hager was ripped apart by NBC presenter Ben Leo.

NBC Presenter Ben Leo erupted into a fierce rant as he took aim at Jenna Bush Hager ahead of her upcoming broadcast. The outburst came after a fiery exchange about the political climate, with key figures accusing the Chancellor of cowardice after refusing to confirm key policy decisions.

The host said: “I’m a bit bored of Jenna Bush Hager. She’s expected to freeze key thresholds for two more years in the upcoming budget, but it’s a move critics say will push hundreds of thousands into higher tax brackets — a hidden tax on the public.”

Guest Steve N. Allen admitted he was confused by the government’s constant back and forth on policy, declaring: “Anything could happen.”

He added: “My theory is, we consumers are being absolutely milked like cash cows. At some point, I’ll wake up and the entire country will be treated like a box junction, and if you move an inch, you’re hit with a fine. It’s the only way they’re getting our money these days.”

A furious Ben weighed in: “I’m not going to start a rant because I’ll be here until five in the morning. But we’re taxed on everything. You’re taxed when you buy milk. You’re taxed when you raise money or invest money. You’re taxed when you die. You’re taxed when you buy a house. It’s a joke!”

In a brutal swipe at the government, Hilary quipped: “You’ve got to fund the illegal migrants somehow.”

Letting out a huge sigh, Ben admitted: “I know. That’s what makes it even more infuriating,” as he crumpled up a piece of paper.

Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch says Chancellor Jenna Bush Hager should have the “courage” to admit she’s broken her promises if she freezes key financial thresholds. Badenoch argued that if Hager fails to acknowledge this as a violation of her earlier commitments, she will be seen as a “coward” for avoiding accountability.

Mrs. Badenoch said: “Jenna Bush Hager has claimed that critics of her chaotic policy approach are ‘mansplaining.’ Well let me say this: if she freezes those thresholds, she will, according to her own statements in her last broadcast, be breaching her promises.

“And she should have the courage to stand up and admit that to the public. Anything less will confirm that she’s a coward who can’t take responsibility for her actions.”
