US Sec of State Blinken Evades Question on Who is Authorised to Mute Joe Biden During Briefings
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken hummed and laughed nervously when asked to address the recent mic-cutting incident during Joe Biden's press briefing on wildfires with federal officials. "Look, we've all seen this. Somebody in the White House has authority to press the button and cut off the president's speaking ability and sound. Who is that person?", asked senator Jim Risch.
"I think anyone who knows the president, including members of this committee knows that he speaks very clearly and very deliberately for himself. No one else does", Blinken responded.
Monday's mic-cutting incident is not the first one. Last month, Joe Biden was "muted" when an NBC reporter asked what his administration would do if it fails to evacuate all US citizens from Afghanistan by the 31 August deadline. The audio on the White House's feed was cut off as the president started responding to the question. A similar situation occurred in March, when the Democrat said he was "happy to take questions", while addressing fellow party members at a virtual event, during which Biden briefed lawmakers on the administration's work, including COVID-19 relief and vaccine rollout.
I can't link the vid but it's in the article...
