A former White House staffer collapsed mid-sentence during a live segment on Fox News’ “Fox News at Night” Thursday, startling viewers and studio staff alike.
Camryn Kinsey, who served as External Relations Director in the Presidential Personnel Office under President Donald Trump, was responding to a question about President Joe Biden’s remarks on “The View” when she appeared to struggle with her words and suddenly slumped to her left, falling from her chair.
Biden, during his appearance, had attributed Vice President Kamala Harris’ failed presidential campaign to sexism, while also claiming he would have won reelection in 2024 had he remained on the ballot. Kinsey, critiquing those remarks, had just begun a rebuttal.
“This is what they have to do. They have to rewrite history because they had a failed campaign, they had a failed presidency,” she began. “They put [Kamala] as the border czar, she never went to the border, so this is about incompetency, it’s not about — ah — ideology or — ah — it’s not about — ah —”
Without finishing the sentence, Kinsey lost consciousness and fell to the ground. Host Jonathan Hunt reacted in alarm, saying, “Oh — Oh, my goodness,” before the broadcast quickly cut away. Staffers rushed to assist her, and the program went to an unscheduled break.
Kinsey later took to social media to share an update on her condition.
“Wow, sorry for the scare last night,” she wrote on X. “I want to start by thanking the incredible Fox News team and the EMTs who responded with such speed and care. It was an unexpected and frightening moment, but thanks to their professionalism and kindness, I’m doing well.”
While Kinsey did not disclose the cause of the collapse, she noted that she is resting and recovering. “I’m taking it slow, staying hydrated, letting my body rest, and thanking the Lord that everything is okay,” she added.
She ended her post with a promise to return to the airwaves soon — and to finish her point about Kamala Harris.
