‘It’s Nothing Personal, Pal’ Doocy Tells Hannity That Biden Called Him on His Cell Phone and ‘Cleared the Air’ Following Hot Mic Moment

Peter Doocy spoke to Sean Hannity on Fox News tonight after he appeared to be called a “stupid son of a b*tch” by Joe Biden earlier today in a hot mic moment.

Doocy told Hannity that Biden called him on his cell phone and “cleared the air” by telling him, “It’s nothing personal, pal.”

Hannity asked Doocy if Biden apologized for the apparent remark, but he said he was not concerned with receiving an apology and appreciated the “president” reaching out.

UPDATE: Peter Doocy says President Biden called his cell phone and "cleared the air" after SOB comment.

Doocy appeared on “The Five” after the incident occurred and spoke to Jesse Watters, who chided Doocy at the time and declared, “Doocy, I think the president’s right — you are a stupid SOB!”

Taking things in stride, Doocy played along and responded, “Yeah, nobody has fact-checked him yet and said it’s not true.”

Watters then took a shot at the Washington Post’s fact-checking formula while busting out laughing and added, “Nobody’s giving him Pinocchios for that one.”

The hot mic moment happened after Biden delivered remarks outlining the White House Competition Council’s steps to cut rising prices in recent weeks.

Doocy asked Biden, “Do you think inflation is a political liability?” before being ushered out of the room.

Biden then turned to members of his Cabinet and joked that “more inflation” is a “great asset” adding, “What a stupid son of a b*tch.”
