Fox News reporter’s call mysteriously ends before she reveals Leavitt’s husband’s warning

Fox News aired an interview with reporter Aisah Hasnie who was sitting with Karoline Leavitt’s husband during the White House Correspondents Dinner.

Fox News has come under fire once again during its coverage of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday, April 25. The news channel was one of the first to break the terrifying news that shots had been fired at the Hilton hotel.

Donald Trump and his wife, Melania, along with other cabinet members, were swiftly taken away by the Secret Service, and the event was later postponed. Trump then organized an emergency press briefing where more information on the shooter was disclosed.

During Fox News’ show, they spoke to their own reporter, Aisah Hasnie, who was at the dinner and sitting with Karoline Leavitt’s husband, Nicholas Riccio, 60.

Aisah said, “The Press Secretary’s husband was one of our guests; he was sitting right next to me. Right as dinner was starting, the National Anthem played, and then he leaned over and said, ‘I watched you on TV, you do a great job, but you need to be very safe.’

“He was very serious when he said that to me, and he kinda looked around the room and said, ‘There are some–'”. The call then mysteriously cut off, with many viewers believing it was done on purpose.

One wrote on X: “They didn’t even try to reconnect. That call was dropped on purpose.” A second echoed: “I was listening to her live. That was definitely FOX who cut off the call. I really wanted to hear the remainder of her comment.”

A third admitted, “My jaw dropped. They literally cut her off. Wake up, peeps.” While a fourth added: “Dropped on purpose. Completely staged.”

Karoline had attended the event with her husband after confirming she was heading on maternity leave yesterday. The press secretary is due to have her second child next month.

Just as guests were finishing the salad course of the White House Correspondents’ dinner, Donald and his wife, Melania, were spotted in conversation with Karoline Leavitt and CBS’s Weijia Jiang when chaos ensued. Gunshots were heard, causing attendees to find shelter under their tables while the Trumps were immediately evacuated from the event.

That night, the U.S. president gave a press briefing, where he revealed chilling footage of the gunman charging security after the shooting.

“He was running full blast, but they got him,” Trump said. During his statement, he also applauded his wife for her resilience.

He said, “I want to thank the first lady for what was a rather traumatic experience for her. There was a lot of action taking place up there very quickly, but again, the response time was really incredible.”

The president said Melania reacted quickly to the sound of the gunshot. He first “sort of thought it was a tray” while “she knew immediately what happened.”

The latest is that the man in his 30s from California has been taken into custody with more information coming in every minute.
