House Press Secretary Shuts Down Fox News Reporter

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre shut down Fox News’ Peter Doocy when he asked about Kamala Harris’ accent, a question she called “insane.” As Harris has been campaigning ahead of the 2024 election, some in conservative media have drawn attention to what they claim are different speaking voices. On Tuesday morning, Fox News aired a clip from a Detroit rally where Harris said “You better thank a union member,” asserting that isn’t her typical speaking voice. Then at Tuesday’s White House press briefing, Doocy asked “Since when does the vice president have what sounds like a Southern accent?” Jean-Pierre immediately shrugged off the question, saying “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”

Underwater tunnel to Manhattan

NEW YORK (AP) — An underwater tunnel that passes beneath New York City’s East River sprung a leak Wednesday after a city contractor mistakenly drilled a hole through it, sending streams of water into the heavily used passage as officials scrambled to plug the opening and block off traffic. The accidental puncture came at around 12:30 p.m. on the Manhattan side of the Queens-Midtown Tunnel, which carries nearly 100,000 drivers into and out of the heart of the city each day. Cathy Sheridan, the president of MTA Bridges and Tunnels, said the commercial drilling company inadvertently bore a 2.5-inch (6.3-cm) hole through the tunnel’s cast iron lining, allowing water to seep through the exhaust duct and into the tube. “There are many redundancies in the tunnel but, you know, when someone drills through all those layers, it’s going to cause a leak,” Sheridan said at a press conference.
