White House press briefing interrupted by flyover for new WWI memorial
CNN
Low-flying F-22 Raptors momentarily interrupted the White House press briefing on Friday as their roar could be heard and felt in buildings in and around downtown Washington.
While describing President Joe Biden's upcoming schedule for next week, White House press secretary Jen Psaki had to pause and say: "Wow -- there's a plane right overhead, just for anyone tuning in online." She was nearly drowned out by the noise as the planes passed. The flyover was part of the World War I Centennial Commission's inaugural raising of the US flag at a new World War I Memorial in Washington, DC, along Pennsylvania Avenue, which took place at about the same time the briefing began on Friday morning. The memorial is expect to open to the public on Saturday.More Related News
