Hunter Biden’s wife, Melissa Cohen-Biden, lashed out at former Trump White House aide Garrett Ziegler in the hallway of the courthouse where her husband is currently facing charges stemming from a 2018 gun purchase.
During a break in the proceedings on Tuesday, Cohen-Biden reportedly approached Ziegler and scolded him.
“I witnessed a dramatic moment a few minutes ago in the hallway outside courtroom: Hunter Biden’s wife Melissa Cohen-Biden approached former Trump aide Garett Ziegler and said ‘you have no right to be here you Nazi piece of s***!'” NBC’s Sarah Fitzpatrick posted via X.
She went on to say that Ziegler said nothing to Cohen-Biden — but did comment on the confrontation afterward. “Ziegler did not respond to her, but told me after that ‘for the record I’m not a Nazi I’m a believer in the US constitution. I haven’t said one thing to them.'”

“It’s sad. I’ve been sitting here the whole time and haven’t approached anyone,” Ziegler added.
According to Fitzpatrick’s full report from NBC News, following the outburst, Cohen-Biden went back into the courtroom, where she sat by first lady Jill Biden.
When approached later, Cohen-Biden told NBC that Ziegler had called her “the most horrific Jewish slurs” and suggested that the former Trump aide should be asked why he had never used “Jewish slurs” when referring to his ex-boss’ son-in-law, Jared Kushner.

Via text, Ziegler flatly denied ever saying any such thing: “Melissa’s statements to you are preposterous. I’ve never called her any slurs. It’s just made up.”
Ziegler, who worked in Trump’s White House on trade policy, also founded a company called Marco Polo that worked to publicize the contents of Hunter Biden’s now-infamous laptop. In September of 2023, Hunter Biden sued Ziegler and Marco Polo, claiming that their efforts to create a searchable database of his emails violated federal law.
