White House Spox Silences Fox News Reporter's 'Insane' Question About Harris' Voice

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and Fox News reporter Peter Doocy got into another verbal sparring match on Tuesday, this time over a question Doocy asked about Vice President Kamala Harris voice.

The Fox News journalist , clearly at odds with Jean-Pierre about what constituted the most pressing news of the day, asked: Since when does the vice president have what sounds like a Southern accent?

I have no idea what youre talking about, Jean-Pierre replied with an exasperated laugh.

As Doocy tried to press forward, the White House spokesperson told him to stop wasting everyones time.

Do you hear the question that I mean, do you think Americans seriously think that this is an important question? Jean-Pierre asked incredulously. 

You know what [Americans] care about? she continued. They care about the economy. They care about lowering costs. They care about health care. Thats what Americans care about.

Im not even going to entertain some question about its just, hearing it sounds so ridiculous, she said, eventually concluding, The question is just insane.

Doocys question might have seemed absurd to Jean-Pierre, but it was well in line with conservative attacks on Harris for her name , her laugh , and the places where she spent her childhood .

The Fox News reporter continued to prod her for an answer. Is that how she talks in meetings here?

By then, Jean-Pierre was at her wits end. Peter, were moving on. Were so moving on.
