During the live broadcast, which aired on major networks such as CNN, Harris was seen covering her mouth and reminding her staff that the session was being streamed live.

The briefing, which also included President Joe Biden joining from the White House, focused on the measures taken in anticipation of Hurricane Milton's impact. As officials addressed various aspects of the hurricane response, Harris subtly interrupted to ensure her staff was aware that their interactions were being publicly broadcast. After making the comment, she continued to engage in the discussions, posing questions to FEMA officials.
