Charlie Nash Oct 16th, 2024, 6:42 pm

Vice President Kamala Harris and Fox News anchor Bret Baier immediately butted heats just seconds into their interview on Wednesday after Baier repeatedly interrupted Harris’s answers.

“Madame Vice President, thank you for your time,” said Baier at the beginning of the interview. “You know, voters tell pollsters all over the country and here in Pennsylvania that immigration is one of the key issues that they are looking at this election, and specifically the influx of illegal immigrants from more than 150 countries. How many illegal immigrants would you estimate your administration has released into the country over the last three-and-a-half years?”

Harris replied, “Well, I’m glad you raised the issue of immigration because I agree with you. It is a topic of discussion that people want to rightly have and you know what I’m going to talk about–”

“Just a number. Do you think it’s 1 million? 3 million?” Baier interrupted.

After Harris began to answer, “Bret, let’s just get to the point, okay? The point is that we have a broken immigration system that needs to be repaired and–” Baier again interrupted the vice president, prompting her to protest, “I’m not finished. I’m not finished.”

As Baier continued to speak over Harris, she laughed and said, “I was beginning to answer.”

Despite Harris’s protests, Baier continued to speak over the vice president throughout the interview.

“May I please finish? May I finish responding please?” she pleaded. “You have to let me finish, please.”

Baier ignored Harris’s plea, prompting her to complain, “I am in the middle of responding to the pointed you are raising. I would like to finish.”

At a glance it was more an attempt at an ambush than a fair, nonpartisan and objective interview.
