Recently, we reported on a clash between President Joe Biden and Fox News White House reporter Peter Doocy, when the President smacked down one of Doocy’s questions as the “garbage” it truly is during a press conference.
Now, it seems that Doocy’s own daddy had to jump to his son’s defense after Biden clapped back at him in front of God and everybody.
Fox & Friends host and father to Peter, Steve Doocy, was quick to jump to his infamous son’s defense today after his spawn got into a tussle with the President during yesterday’s presser over reported payments to immigrant families who were separated at the border under the Biden administration.
Peter questioned Biden about the reports claiming that his administration would be paying out approximately $450,000 per person to settle lawsuits filed by people who were separated from their families at the US southern border, due to Donald Trump’s heinous immigration policies.

Biden was quick to confirm that the reports are “not true,” and made sure Peter knew his question was “garbage.”
“That’s not gonna happen,” Biden clarified of the alleged $450,000 payments.
Apparently, this really pissed Peter’s dad off.
Steve proceeded to go on an unhinged rant during his Fox segment this morning, in defense of his White House reporter son.
“It sounds like the administration did not tell the president what the administration of the president is doing,” Steve fired off, referring to a recent statement from the ACLU that seemingly contradicted President Biden’s statement to Peter yesterday.
“So he can say it’s garbage, it’s not going to happen, but at the same time his own Department of Justice is negotiating with these families and the ACLU,” the elder Doocy went on to add. “And apparently, Joe Biden doesn’t know what the Joe Biden administration is doing.”
His co-host Brian Kilmeade piped in, saying, “Somebody’s not dealing the president into his big decisions,” with Ainsley Earhardt interjecting to ask, “Who’s running this country?”
The ACLU statement in question is as follows:
President Biden may not have been fully briefed about the actions of his very own Justice Department as it carefully deliberated and considered the crimes committed against thousands of families separated from their children as an intentional governmental policy.
But if he follows through on what he said, the president is abandoning a core campaign promise to do justice for the thousands of separated families.”
