Senator Jon Ossoff had a memorable encounter in Washington, D. C.
, when an Australian reporter asked him a cheeky question about his confidence.
The reporter, Charlie, caught Ossoff just as he was about to board an elevator, leaving only a brief moment for a quick exchange.
Without hesitation, Charlie asked the Georgia senator if he has 'BDE' — a slang term often used to describe a certain kind of self-assured presence.
Ossoff, 39, seemed to understand the reference, responding with a knowing smirk rather than outright embracing the label.
He tipped his hat to Charlie's boldness, essentially noting that only an Aussie would have the nerve to ask such a question.
The lighthearted moment highlights a playful side of the senator, even as the reporter's question was delivered with a straight face.
