A reduced rate wasn’t a ‘giveaway’ to large firms. It set off an economic boom and increased wages.

TRUTH: U.S. has one of most progressive income tax codes in world. Top 1% shoulder 42% of income taxes paid. Debunks liberal claims that wealthy don’t pay “fair share.”

The income tax code is steeply progressive, as 2020 IRS data show.

The ingenuity of @NormanEBorlaug, father of the Green Revolution, is credited with feeding the world. Ingenuity of U.S. technology will address climate change w/out energy poverty or killing off traditional energy jobs as #GreenNewDeal demands.

“Employers getting hit with tax increases even as risk of recession rises” thx to #Biden #Democrats so-called Inflation Reduction Act. “This won’t help economy that needs more supply-side investment to counter higher interest rates.”.
American companies are getting hit in 2023 with a variety of tax increases even as the risk of recession rises along with interest rates.

After 50 years banned, the “enemies list” is back in DC. My biggest worry is this dangerous new political weapon will target & destroy private citizens who land on that list. And yes - thx to Jan 6 panel precedent of subpoenaing members of Congress - lawmakers at risk too.

“Congress has never before released a private citizen’s tax information. It won’t be hard for partisans (in either party) to justify seizing & releasing anyone’s returns.”.
House Democrats’ release of Donald Trump’s taxes is a violation of taxpayer privacy with no legislative purpose, and it could open an ugly new battlefield in American politics.

Three years after pandemic, the Democratic “Capitol lockdown” ends. Finally. @GOPLeader: “Opening the House is more than just a symbolic measure — a government of the people, by the people, for the people, requires interaction with the people.”.

Republicans are ready to reopen the House gallery to the public and drop the requirement that visitors to House offices have staff escorts.
