Fox News host Harris Faulkner has voiced her disapproval of reports suggesting that First Lady Jill Biden is actively overseeing President Joe Biden’s work schedule. Faulkner expressed concern over the President’s reported resistance to acknowledging his physical limitations, citing an Axios article by Alex Thompson.
The report indicates tension within Biden’s team, as aides and the First Lady advocate for him to rest more and prioritize his health leading up to the 2024 election. Faulkner emphasized the active role Jill Biden is allegedly playing in influencing the President to scale back his commitments.
In a discussion with Fox News contributor Richard Fowler, Faulkner contested the characterization of these developments as palace intrigue, asserting that the First Lady shouldn’t be running the country but appears to be trying to manage the President. Fowler questioned the validity of the report, expressing concern about unnamed sources, leading to a heated exchange between the two.
