Whispering Joe returns: Biden leans into microphone to warn he'll VETO Republican bill that would eliminate the IRS - and sarcastically says 'moms' will love GOP bid to introduce a 'national sales tax'
2023-01-13
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • President Joe Biden pledged Thursday to reject House Republicans' tax legislation, should the bills somehow pass the Senate

  • 'Let me be very clear, if any of these bills make it to my desk: I will veto them,' Biden said in a whisper

  • Biden slammed the GOP for wanting to abolish the IRS, pass a 'national sales tax' and for passing a bill Monday that pulled funding back from the IRS

  • 'Go home and tell your moms. They're going to be real excited about that,' he said of the plan to have a national sales tax

  • With the Democrats in control of the Senate, nothing tax related passed out of the GOP-led House will likely make it to Biden's desk

#5  Memo to Kevin McCarthy:

Do not be afraid to shut the government down. MSM will blame you but it's the only way to get Democrats' attention. You can no longer afford to be a gentleman if you want to play hardball against hardened criminals like Obama and Biden.

#4  I despise all the Czar crated bureaucracy positions that are added Ad Hoc and never seem to go away, but I would not be adverse to seeing the White House add an exorcist.

#3  Psst Joe -

All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills. - Article I, Section 7, US Constitution

They just don't have to fund the IRS (or Dept of Education, or the EPA, or....).

#1  You have got to repeal the Constitutional amendment that authorized income tax in the first place, otherwise the 'national' sales tax is just another tax on top if you know how politicians act. BTW, we already have a national sales tax on gasoline.
