Jean-Pierre, Fox News’ Doocy, Shout At Each Other Over Illegal Migrant Surge

Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy once again engaged in a chaotic back-and-forth with Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre as the question-and-answer session became heated over the ongoing illegal migrant crisis.

Upon taking office in January 2021, President Joe Biden immediately reversed the majority of his predecessor’s strict immigration and border enforcement policies, which Republicans say has led to historic levels of illegal crossings and smuggling of drugs like fentanyl that are killing nearly 100,000 Americans a year.

Doocy was preparing to ask a question about the arrival of thousands of illegal migrants at Eagle Pass, Texas, this week, but Jean-Pierre countered with a question of her own, leading to the tense exchange, with her shouting before finally moving on to other reporters:

DOOCY: So, what do you call it here at the White House when 10,000 people illegally cross the border in a single day?

MS. JEAN-PIERRE: So, what do you call it, Peter, when GOP puts forth a — wait, no —

DOOCY: Asking are you —

MS. JEAN-PIERRE: No, no, no, no, no, no, you can’t —

DOOCY: Karine —

MS. JEAN-PIERRE: I’m answering.

Okay, we’re going to move on.

DOOCY: You’re answering a question —

MS. JEAN-PIERRE: No, no, no, no —

DOOCY: — with a question.

MS. JEAN-PIERRE: No, no, no —

DOOCY: Okay.

MS. JEAN-PIERRE: No, no, no — no, no, no. We’re moving on.

DOOCY: Karine, please —

MS. JEAN-PIERRE: We’re moving. In the back. Go ahead.

Jean-Pierre got a number of questions regarding the ongoing migrant crisis, some of which she did answer:

Q: The administration said yesterday it was granting temporary legal status to hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans. At the same time, the city of Eagle Pass in the Rio Grande has announced a state of emergency because of immigrants surge. Is there any concern that the timing of this Venezuelan TPS announcement might exacerbate what’s happening in Eagle Pass right now? And — and, you know, essentially, is this going to make the situation in Eagle Pass worse?

MS. JEAN-PIERRE: So, look, we have worked very hard — the President have worked very — very hard to pleme- — implement a strategy, when it comes to the border, that is humane, safe, and has orderly enforcement. That is something that we have tried to do and worked really hard to do these last two years.

I do want to add a couple of things that we also announced yesterday, as you — just to note — I’m sure you know — which is escalating the fight against smuggling and trafficking by prosecuting an increasing number of smugglers as well as non-citizens who are violating our laws. Right? This is an announcement we made yesterday.

Also, in deploying 800 new active-duty military personnel to support border efforts and get CBP agents and officer out in the field. This is up to — up to — this on top of the 2,500 National Guard personnel also deployed.

And expanding the Fentanyl [Family] Expedited Removal Management.

So, those are three other pieces that we announced, as well as the Venezuela TPS yesterday.

Let’s not forget the 24,000 CBP agents and officers along the southwest border.

So, we have taken steps without the help of — of Republicans in Congress to do everything that we can to deal with this issue.

And let’s not forget what the Republicans proposed. Their continuing resolution would lead 800 CBP agents and officers being fired and (inaudible) 50,000 pounds of cocaine, more than 300 pounds of fentanyl, more than 700 pounds of heroin, and more than 6,000 pounds of — of other drugs to — to enter the country.

That is what they proposed just a day — a day ago. And that’s what that would do to the — to the border; it would hurt and harm and not deal with the issue.

So, they are doing the opposite of what the President is trying to do — is actually move forward in a way that is humane, safe, and has an orderly enforcement pathway process here.

A 12-year-old girl with a large belly was brought to the hospital. When the doctors realized what was inside, they were shocked.A 12-year-old girl with an unusually large belly was brought to the emergency room. The doctors first assumed digestive problems or even a tumor. But after the ultrasound, a heavy silence fell over the ward. What they saw made them freeze. There was no normal pregnancy inside, no tumor – only a weak spark of life that was about to go out.Her name was Kira. Quiet, thin, pale, with huge blue eyes and hands that constantly squeezed her stomach. She was admitted to the hospital late in the evening. Her mother was crying, repeating the same thing:— I thought it was just bloating. Gas… But she screamed in pain at night, curled up into a ball. And now she can’t even get up.Kira’s father left when she was six. Her mother worked as a cleaner in a shopping center, trying to give her daughter everything she could. They lived poorly, but loved each other. No one guessed what pain the girl was hiding under her smile. She endured it. She didn’t want to upset her mother. She thought it would pass. She drank water, starved herself, just so it wouldn’t get any worse.When they put her on the bed, Kira couldn’t straighten her legs — the skin on her stomach was stretched like an eardrum. The doctors were in a hurry: tests, IVs, examinations. An ultrasound showed a colossal accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity. At first, they suspected internal bleeding. But the blood was clean. The surgeon called an oncologist. The oncologist — a gastroenterologist. The gastroenterologist — an infectious disease specialist…The diagnosis was rare and terrible: intestinal lymphangiectasia. A disease in which the lymphatic vessels dilate and fluid accumulates in the abdominal cavity. Pain, exhaustion, risk of death – all this could look like just a “bad stomach” for years.An elderly doctor with kind eyes and gray hair quietly said to the mother:- Your daughter is holding on by a miracle. Her body has been fighting for months. An urgent puncture, treatment, support are needed. You must be there. She can’t cope without you.Mom did not leave the ward for a minute. Kira woke up with a damp forehead, opened her eyes with difficulty and whispered:- Mommy… I don’t want to die… I haven’t finished watching my favorite TV series yet…The treatment was long and painful. More than three liters of fluid were pumped out of the abdominal cavity. Every movement was painful. Every injection was a test. But Kira didn’t cry. Only once, when her mother brought her a teddy bear with a soft bandage on its belly, tears appeared in her eyes:— Will he be sick with me too?After two weeks, it got better. The doctors said that they had never seen such childish courage. The nurse, usually strict and silent, brought her a warm blanket and whispered:— You’re like an angel. Just don’t go, okay?Kira’s story quickly spread throughout the entire floor. Other children were told about it:— Look how Kira is fighting. You can do it too.She became a symbol of hope for the entire clinic.But a couple of weeks later, a complication occurred. On Sunday night, her temperature suddenly jumped, and her legs began to swell. The doctors rushed between the machines, another puncture, more tests… Everyone was afraid of one thing — that the body had given up…⬇️⬇️ (Full story in 1st comment 👇)

He didn’t bark or growl, he just looked at her with such intensity that a chill ran down her spine. — Rex, come on, good boy — she whispered, hoping to coax him forward. But he didn’t move. Rex never growled. She crouched down, her dress spreading around her, and gently took his muzzle in her hands. — What’s wrong, my boy? — she murmured, stroking his now graying muzzle. Then she saw it: his labored breathing, his trembling paws. Maria called out to her mother, her voice full of urgency — time was running out. — I’m not going to leave you alone. As she helped him lay down, his body slumped heavily against her. Guests murmured in surprise, but Maria heard none of it.

AS A SINGLE MOM WORKING AT A DINER, I LOST SIGHT OF MY SON—WHAT HE SAID TO A FIREFIGHTER LEFT US ALL IN TEARS Working at a small diner means you sometimes have to get creative with childcare. My babysitter canceled last minute, so I brought my four-year-old son, Micah, with me to work. It was Halloween, and he was thrilled to wear his little firefighter costume—red helmet, coat, and all. I set him up with some crayons and a grilled cheese at a back booth, reminding him to stay put while I handled the dinner rush. At some point, between refilling coffee and taking orders, I glanced over and—he was gone. Panic hit me fast. I called his name, rushed to the backroom, then checked under the tables. Nothing. My heart pounded as I ran toward the kitchen—maybe he wandered in there. And that’s when I saw him. Micah was in the arms of an actual firefighter, a big, broad-shouldered man still in his uniform. But the man wasn’t just holding him—he was crying. Silent tears rolled down his face as he clutched my son to his chest. The entire kitchen had gone still. The cook, the dishwasher, even a couple of customers peeking in from the counter—all watching. I rushed forward, but before I could speak, Micah looked up at the man and said, clear as day, “It’s okay. You saved them. My daddy says you’re a hero.” The firefighter sucked in a shaky breath. His grip on Micah tightened just for a second before he gently set him down. I was speechless. My husband—Micah’s dad—was a firefighter, too. He passed away in a fire last year. I had never told Micah much about the details, just that his dad was brave. I had no idea how he’d pieced together this moment. The firefighter wiped his face and crouched down to Micah’s level. His voice cracked when he asked, “Who’s your daddy, buddy?” And when Micah answered, the man’s face completely crumbled. ⬇
