Fox News Channel’s White House Correspondent, Peter Doocy, managed to do what he does best and absolutely set off White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre during the Thursday White House Press Briefing, questioning Biden’s border poIicy and causing her to boil over and shout him down.
Doocy went for the jugular from the very beginning, His first question, when she called on him, was, Thanks, Karine. So, what do you call it here at the White House when 10,000 people iIIegally cross the border in a single day?
Predictably, that led to a messy back-and-forth. KJP began by refusing to even pretend to answer the question, saying, So, what do you call it, Peter, when GOP puts forth a — wait, no. Doocy, who couId tell she wasn’t going to give an answer, said, “Asking are you —” His interjection led to her popping off, snapping, No, no, no, no, no, no, you can’t. That then led to more of a verbal sparring match, with Doocy trying to get KJP to answer the question and KJP shouting him down, which cuIminated in her refusing to answer whatsoever and moving on, snapping, I tried to answer the question, and you stopped me.
Doocy wasn’t done, however. He came back the next day with the same question prepared and again demanded an answer. When called on, he said, I — same question. KJP started Iaughing and Doocy insisted, “Same question as yesterday.”
