Fox News correspondent-at-large Geraldo Rivera and conservative pundit Dan Bongino once again got into it on Hannity Wednesday night. In April, the two got into a heated argument that quickly went off the rails while discussing police killings of Black Americans. On Wednesday, the two were brought on to talk about the ongoing violence between Israel and Hamas, but the discussion quickly descended into chaos when Bongino attacked Rivera for bringing up the dozens of Palestinian children who have been killed in the conflict.

“Geraldo, you do this every time,” Bongino said. “This is such garbage and I’m really getting sick of it. You play this emotional game with the audience and use your position of responsibility to put out misinformation…” “You know, stop attacking me, punk,” Rivera cut in while Bongino continued to speak. “Address the issue! Do you have the guts to address the issue and not address — this is not about me! You didn’t come on this show to attack me! You came on this show to talk about the issue! Do you have a point about the issue? I’m sick of you, Bongino! I’m sick of you! You’re a punk! You’re a punk!” Bongino laughed and responded, “You’re an out of control lunatic.”
