Fox News anchor Harris Faulkner made a serious and bizarre error on Monday, interrupting a live phone interview with former President Donald Trmp to wrongly report that Department of Homeland Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas had resigned.

“I want to get to this because it just happened now,” Faulkner told Trmp as he attɑcked the Biden administration over the surge of migrants at the US-Mexico border. “I want to double-check this with our producers.”

Faulkner continued, “The DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has resigned, Mr. President.”

Trmp, who attɑcked Mayorkas as “pɑthetic” and “clu3less” in a statement Sunday, then celebrated.

“I’m not surprised,” Trmp said. “Good. That’s a big victory for our country.”

Faulkner, visibly confused as she tried to listen to her producers, then retracted.

“Hold on. Let me stop, let me stop. Let me listen to my team one more time,” Faulkner said. “Forgive me. Forgive me. That has not happened but – I apologize.”

Faulkner suggested that “listening to the team” and Trmp at the same time had resulted in confusion that led to the error.

A Fox spokesperson said the “error stemmed from an audio issue in a virtual working environment. We corrected the mistake and continued on with the interview.”

Nevertheless, it’s unusual for a national news anchor to inaccurately report the resignation of a cabinet secretary — especially when there was no reason to believe that such a resignation was set to occur.
