Summary
A new book by New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan, titled "Regime Change," alleges that US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent advised Donald Trump not to host Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the Oval Office, and reportedly used highly derogatory language to describe Zelenskyy, calling him a "little fucker," a "special-needs child," and "Mr Bean on crack." The revelation may embarrass the Trump administration.
