EAST BATON ROUGE PARISH, LOUISIANA, JUL 22 – Senator John Kennedy, 73, stopped speaking mid-interview due to a technical issue with his earpiece during a Fox Business broadcast, dispelling health scare concerns, officials said.
- During a Fox Business interview on Tuesday, Louisiana Senator John Kennedy suddenly stopped speaking mid-response and trailed off while addressing the topic of sanctuary cities.
- Kennedy's team and host Larry Kudlow explained the interruption was caused by a malfunction in Kennedy’s earpiece, similar to a prior issue affecting Senator Rand Paul.
- Kennedy resumed speaking about sanctuary cities refusing to follow federal law, emphasizing that ‘mayors cannot break federal law’ before the technical glitch interrupted him.
- The incident sparked social media speculation about Kennedy’s age, renewed calls for congressional term limits, and comparisons to Republican Senator Mitch McConnell’s prior freezing episodes.
- This event highlights ongoing debates about age and leadership in Congress and fuels discussions on the need for younger legislators and term limits.
