A fight nearly broke out during a Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee hearing on Tuesday between GOP Senator Markwayne Mullin and president of the Teamsters union, Sean O'Brien. Mullin, Senator for Oklahoma and former MMA fighter, recalled an exchange he had with O'Brien in June on Twitter/X. They had discussed engaging in an MMA fight for charity are getting in a heated back-and-forth at a previous congressional hearing. On Tuesday, Mullin read aloud O'Brien's original tweet: "Greedy CEO who pretends like he's self made. In reality, just a clown & fraud. Always has been, always will be. Quit the tough guy act in these senate hearings. You know where to find me. Anyplace, anytime cowboy." Mullin then said at the hearing: "Sir, this is a time; this is a place. You want to run your mouth? We can be two consenting adults. We can finish it here." "Okay, that's fine, perfect," O'Brien said. "You want to do it now?" Mullin asked. "I'd love to do it right now," O'Brien said. "Then stand your butt up then," said Mullin. "You stand your butt up," said O'Brien. Mullin then stood up, and was quickly interjected by the committee's chairman, Sen. Bernie Sanders, who yelled at Mullin: "Stop it! No, no, sit down! You know, you're a United States senator." Mullin and O'Brien did not end up getting in a physical fight, although names were shouted at one another that are not normally heard in committee hearings. The two concluded their exchange by agreeing to have coffee together. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz fell while jogging and sustained bruises to his face, prompting him to cancel some appointments this weekend, the government said Saturday. In an emailed response to a query about the incident, the government said that the 65-year-old German leader had “a small sports accident” and canceled appointments Sunday in the central Hesse region, where a state election is being held on Oct. 8. But it said his appointments next week won't be affected. The Hesse-based Frankfurter Rundschau newspaper first reported on Saturday's incident. It cited a prominent lawmaker with Scholz's center-left Social Democrats, Michael Roth, who had invited the chancellor to his home town of Heringen and planned a discussion event with him there on Sunday. Scholz has led Germany since December 2021. He previously served as the country's finance and labor minister, and as mayor of Hamburg.
