'Just answer the question lady'

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre refused to answer Fox News reporter Peter Doocy's question about certain "alleged materials" on the president's son's now-infamous laptop.

According to a Daily Mail report last week, a 2018 voicemail was discovered on a cellphone backup on Hunter Biden’s laptop that reveals that Joe Biden knew about his son's dubious business dealings in China. The president has repeatedly denied that he ever spoke with Hunter about any of his overseas business dealings.

"Why is there a voicemail of the president talking to his son about his overseas business dealings if the president has said he's never spoken to his son about his overseas business dealings?" Doocy asked Jean-Pierre.

"Well, first I will say that what the president said stands. So, if that's what the president said, that is what stands," Jean-Pierre responded. "And secondly ... from this podium, I'm not going to talk about alleged materials from the laptop."

Philip Wegmann from RealClearNews wasn't about to let Jean-Pierre off the hook.

\u201c.@PhilipWegmann: "You seemed to dismiss Peter's question about his conversation with his son Hunter Biden...how is that silence consistent with the president's promise to always level with the American public?"\n\nKJP: "I can not comment on any materials from the laptop."\u201d

Neither were the people on Twitter:

\u201c@townhallcom So, we\u2019re going to be the most transparent administration in history, but we won\u2019t answer questions from the podium and the president won\u2019t take questions at all. Ok.\u201d
