Karoline Leavitt Shocks Press Room with Sharp Comeback to Peter Doocy: “Why Don’t You Ever Question His Money?”
A tense moment unfolded at the White House press briefing today when Karoline Leavitt, White House Deputy Press Secretary, turned the tables on Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy in a striking exchange that left the room momentarily silent.

During the briefing, Doocy pressed Leavitt on alleged financial discrepancies involving a member of the administration. In response, Leavitt fired back with a pointed question:
“Ask yourself why you never question his money,” she said, referring indirectly to a political figure reportedly aligned with Fox News’s interests.

Reporters described the room as visibly stunned by the exchange. Some journalists glanced at one another, unsure whether to follow up or let the moment pass.
While neither Leavitt nor Doocy offered further comments after the briefing, social media quickly picked up on the clip, with users debating whether Leavitt’s comment was justified or simply deflective.

The confrontation highlights growing tensions between the White House and certain media outlets, with both sides showing no sign of backing down.
