Peter Doocy Hits Back At KJP Over Hurricane Aid Dust-Up, And He’s Got Receipts

Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy hit back on Tuesday after Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre — now pulling double duty as a senior advisor to President Joe Biden — referred to his question about hurricane aid as “misinformation.”

The official Fox News X account shared video of Doocy briefly explaining what had happened — and why he believed his question was a legitimate one.

“Peter Doocy here outside the West Wing, where this week, one of my questions about foreign aid versus hurricane relief was called ‘misinformation,’” Doocy began, and then shared a clip of the exchange.

“President Biden is fond of saying, ‘Show me your budget, and I will tell you what you value.’ If he’s got money for people in Lebanon right now without Congress having to come back, what does it say about his values [if] there’s not enough money right now for people in North Carolina who need it?” Doocy asked.

“His values?” Jean-Pierre asked.

“That’s not misinformation,” Doocy said.

“No, it is,” Jean-Pierre objected. “Your whole premise of the question is misinformation, sir!”

“Excuse me?” Doocy shot back. “What part?”

The camera cut back to Doocy, who held up a piece of paper: “I’ve got the information right here. The vice president is posting on social media about $157 million in additional assistance to the people of Lebanon. President Biden is posting about how the Small Business Administration’s disaster loan program is going to run out of funding if Congress does not come back.”

“To a lot of people watching these briefings, a taxpayer dollar is a taxpayer dollar is a taxpayer dollar,” Doocy continued, noting that the average American isn’t going to care that the money going to Lebanon — or to fund the resettlement of illegal migrants, for that matter — was previously designated as such if Americans are suffering and the government does not appear to be moving heaven and earth to help them first.
