Kristen Holmes husband and kids: All on CNN reporter's family berated by Trump over Natalie Harp question, ‘Be Quiet’
CNN defended its White House correspondent Kristen Holmes after President Donald Trump criticized her questioning.
President Donald Trump's rapid response team berated CNN reporter Kristen Holmes and her family after she questioned the President during a White House Oval Office session. Holmes inquired about Trump's reaction to Sen. Jon Ossoff's comments about Trump allegedly preferring to build a ballroom and travel with White House aide Natalie Harp instead of fulfilling his presidential duties.
In response, Trump called Ossoff "Pee-wee Herman" and directed his Rapid Response 47 account on X to criticize Holmes for referencing Ossoff's remark, which provided ammunition for liberal critics. The White House-run account on X called Holmes a "disgraceful, humiliating embarrassment" and stated that her question was disrespectful to Trump's staff, including Harp.
CNN defended Holmes, stating that she is one of the most respected and accomplished journalists covering the White House and that her question was tough, relevant, and newsworthy. They rejected personal attacks on journalists for asking questions and emphasized the importance of free press principles. Holmes and her husband, Noah William Gray, are parents to two children.
