President Biden and Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy had a heated exchange Thursday at the end of a speech in which Biden announced a vax-or-test-mask-and-distance requirement for millions of federal workers.
As Biden left the podium in the East Room of the White House, Doocy reminded the president that he had said, "If you are fully vaccinated, you no longer need to wear a mask."
Biden then turned on his heels and made his way out of the room, without donning a mask.
In May, Biden was criticized for telling a reporter he couldn't ask a question about the Middle East during a visit to a Michigan car plant "Unless you get in front of the car as I step on it."
Last month, Biden yelled at CNN's Kaitlin Collins after she asked why he was so "Confident" Russian President Vladimir Putin would change his behavior following a summit meeting between the two leaders in Geneva, Switzerland.
"I'm not confident he'll change his behavior! What the hell? What do you do all of the time? When did I say I was confident?" asked Biden, who returned to the microphone to harangue the reporter.
On Monday, Biden called veteran NBC News reporter Kelly O'Donnell a "Pain in the neck" after she ignored his request to only ask questions about the US ending its combat mission in Iraq to inquire about the Department of Veterans Affairs requiring staff to get vaccinated against COVID-19.
