Joe Biden Says He Flashed Veto Pen at Kevin McCarthy During White House Meeting
Breitbart ^ | 12/05/2022 | CHARLIE SPIERING

President Joe Biden tried to send a signal to House Republicans during a White House meeting on Tuesday, warning them he could veto any bill he wanted to.

Biden revealed details of the meeting with House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and other Congressional leaders during a fundraiser in Boston on Friday. McCarthy may lead the new Congress as speaker after Republicans won the majority in the House of Representatives in the midterm elections.

“They were telling me what they could do, what they were going to do. And I said, ‘Yeah,'” Biden recalled, demonstrating that he responded to McCarthy by lifting up his pen and showing it to the room.

Appropriations for spending originate in the House, or at least they use to.

Of course not! McCarthy doesn't have the gonads, plus it wouldn't be "proper" and doesn't fit the uniparty standards.

I remember watching Bill Clinton at a news conference take a pen out of his pocket and say this is my veto pen.

Biden’s a flasher, but we already knew that. Just ask the Secret Service.

Biden flashed a veto pen? What the heck?

I think we all know, without Joe flashing anyone, that he can veto bills, and we all know that the Democrats in Congress will uphold his vetoes.

When you think about it, McCarthy kind of has a veto pen of his own. Because none of Biden’s crazy ideas can make it into law without House approval.

McCarthy should throw that back into Biden’s face. But I suppose he won’t. It would be too harsh. Only Democrats are allowed to do that sort of thing.

“They said, ‘What are you doing?’ I said, ‘A pen. Veto,'” he said.

What a despicable jerk.
