President Joe Biden lost his temper at a TikTok star during a special White House meeting with social media influencers, even threatening to throw his phone across the room.
Independent journalist and social media darling Jonathan M. Katz started recording Biden, pressing him about his support for Israel during the war in Gaza. He asked him what he would do to prevent the ‘genocide’ that was taking place with American-funded weapons.
The president tried to sidestep the questions, claiming he was working to reduce casualties in Gaza. But when Katz pressed him on the issue, the president grew impatient.
‘I know you’re a typical press guy, you’re grabbing me in front of all this … but I trust you about as far as I can throw your phone,’ Biden said angrily. ‘I have a good arm man. I can throw a long way.’
Katz said he was approached by aides after the exchange and escorted away from the president.
He posted the video on his TikTok account which has roughly 70,000 followers. The video has been viewed 28,700 times.
Katz wrote on his Racket news website that he was surprised to get an invitation to the White House in April that included a host of left-leaning social media stars and celebrities.
