Fox News’ Peter Doocy confronted White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Wednesday over President Joe Biden’s joke to a reporter who asked about Americans trapped in Afghanistan.

NBC’s Peter Alexander asked Biden at the end of an event earlier in the afternoon, “What will you do if Americans are still there after the deadline?” Biden jokingly responded, “You’ll be the first person I call.”

Doocy picked the issue up again at Psaki’s daily briefing. “At the tail end of the president’s remarks, he was asked about Afghanistan,” Doocy noted. “He made a joke. So what’s so funny?”
