@Jim_Jordan Nope

Taxes are due next week. So many Americans are seeing bigger refunds and tax cuts. That's what President Trump promised.

@MAGAMAHACindy @RichardBEsq Though it was the most paid in 2021, that 11 bil was still from 277bil. Thats not even close to paying enough.

Per Grok Elon Musk has no single fixed tax percentage—it varies wildly by year and how you measure it. - On realized income (when he sells stock or exercises options): He pays standard high rates—up to ~37% federal + state/capital gains taxes. In 2021, he paid roughly $11 billion (the largest single-year individual tax bill in history at the time), mostly from Tesla stock sales. - On wealth growth (unrealized stock gains, which aren't taxed until sold): Critics calculate a much lower "true tax rate." From 2014–2018, his wealth grew $13.9B; he paid $455M in federal taxes (effective ~3.27%). He paid $0 federal income tax in 2018. Recent studies show the top 400 richest Americans (including Musk) had an average effective tax rate of ~24% on reported income (2018–2020), lower than the broader population's ~30%. Musk has said he expects to pay over $500 billion in taxes over his lifetime (including estate taxes). Tesla (corporate side): Paid $0 current federal income tax on $5.7B U.S. income in 2025 (and ~0.4% over the past three years on $12.5B+), thanks to credits, R&D, and reinvestment—fully legal under the tax code Bottom line: Like many billionaires, Musk pays little/no tax in quiet years (wealth in unsold stock) but massive lump sums when realizing gains. The U.S. system taxes income, not net worth.

You see Trump as an Authoritarian, I see Trump as the only one willing to fight for our freedoms. You see Trump’s arrogance, I see Trump’s confidence. You see Trump’s nationalism, I see Trump’s patriotism. You hear Trump’s unsophisticated words, I hear Trump’s honesty. You see Trump’s racism, I see Trump’s words being misconstrued and twisted by the media daily to fit their narrative. You see Trump as a Republican or Israel first, I see Trump as an American loving President. You see Trump as a dictator, I see Trump as a leader. You see Trump as childish, I see Trump as a fighter, unwilling to cave in to the lies. You see Trump as an unpolished politician, I see Trump as a breath of fresh air. You see Trump putting an end to immigration in America, I see Trump welcoming immigrants to America LEGALLY. You see Trump’s cages at the border, I see Obama’s cages at the border. You see Trump with a struggling economy, I see Trump with an amazing economy until the Democrats keep shutting it down. You see the violence in the streets and call it “Trump’s America”, I see the violence in the streets of Democratic run cities who have refused Trump’s help and call it “Leftist America.” You wanted someone more Presidential, I’m happy we HAVE someone who finally is transparent and doesn’t just talk the talk but actually walks the walk.

@Milajoy Please stop lying

After working for 50 years, the average Social Security recipient gets $1800/month. After being in America for 50 minutes, the average illegal “refugee” gets $3874/month. And red or blue, that should PISS EVERYONE OFF.

@MAGAMAHACindy @RichardBEsq Elon pays about 1% tax

@RichardBEsq Do you really know the amount Elon pays in tax? Why do you think the rich should be taxed more than others when they benefit in more ways than most other individuals?

@PavanB1023 @OccupyDemocrats Thats well above his 400k salary

@OccupyDemocrats $100M+ on golf trips is a big number — no doubt. But context matters: travel, security, staff — it all adds up for any president. The real question is: where’s the line between necessary cost… and excess?

BREAKING: Trump’s golf bill just topped $100 MILLION as he plays golf, AGAIN, for the 58th time as the world burns thanks to his idiocy! According to a new analysis, Trump has spent $101.2 million in taxpayer funds to go golfing at one of his properties. This is two-thirds of what he spent his first term on golfing and puts him on track to spend $300 MILLION by the end of his second term. It’s just another reminder that the whole DOGE thing was nothing but a convenient excuse for Republicans to gut everything they could in order to have more money to spend on things like Trump’s golf tab. Grift, robbery, and embezzlement is the Trump philosophy of financial management, and we need to make him pay back every single cent once we get him out of office and behind bars, where he belongs. Laziest, stupidest, greediest president in history.

@karjeda195841 @AmericanVsGov @TiffMoodNukes Thats an illusion to prey on us and our vulerability of being controlled for so long.

@AmericanVsGov @TiffMoodNukes Where I don’t agree is I don’t disagree with Trump. He isn’t part of the swamp. He’s the outsider. That’s why both sides don’t want him in office. He’s taking down their corrupted playground and it’s not just in our country. Don’t care of you agree or not. It’s fact.

Both parties are playing you. And it's by design. George Washington warned us about this in 1796. "Let me... warn you in the most solemn manner against the baneful effects of the spirit of party generally." He said political parties would become "potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people." That was 230 years ago. And here we are. Here's how the game works. Republicans say "You don't want Democrats in charge. They'll destroy the country." Democrats say "You don't want Republicans in charge. They'll destroy the country." Fear. Fear. Fear. Vote for us. We're the lesser of two evils. Sound familiar? They've convinced you that your only options are red or blue. That anything else is throwing your vote away. That you HAVE to pick a side. But here's what they don't want you to realize... They control who you get to choose from. They control who gets on the debate stage. They control who gets TV coverage. They control who gets attention. Third party candidate gaining traction? Shut them out. Independent with real ideas? Blacklist them from the debates. Someone who actually threatens the system? Media blackout. You think you're choosing. But you're just picking from a menu they wrote. They give you the illusion of choice. Red or blue. Door one or door two. Both doors lead to the same room. And while you're busy being terrified of the other team... They both stay in power. They both get rich. They both chip away at your rights. They both run up the debt your grandkids will pay. Here's what frustrates me. Every time I criticize Trump... someone says "Oh so you wanted Kamala?" No. That's not the point. That's the trap. They've programmed you to think in binary. Red or blue. That's it. No other options exist. But there ARE other options. They just don't want you to see them. Because if you did... their game falls apart. Washington saw this coming. He called it "a frightful despotism." He was right. Both parties manufacture fear to control you. To keep you distracted. To keep you fighting your neighbor instead of questioning them. The two-party system isn't broken. It's working exactly as designed. To keep THEM in power. Stop playing their game. Rise and Lead.

@SchmidtJim33262 @MelissaOrtiz78 @AmericanVsGov If everyone were to come together to not vote, that would strike huge fear in our two parties that we are done with them both.

@MelissaOrtiz78 @AmericanVsGov I respectfully think that is just dumb. You are in fact voting by sitting it out and have sacrificed the ability to complain in the future.

@JypsRidic @DanteHub22 @YourAnonNews Because they don't and you're fed BS daily

@DanteHub22 @YourAnonNews why do you want illegal aliens to steal our elections?

Fucking vote these assholes out of office. The time of reconning is at hand.

@JamesMatt48173 @ennui365 The congress now is basically the president

@ennui365 Do you know Congress controls the spending not the President…

@justmeshaun78 @MeidasTouch I didn't believe him until now. That was a warning about MAGA then to not join the facism and reject it. Trump is declaring war on those who disagree with him, that's quite different.

@MeidasTouch But you were ok with this?

Trump posts that after the “death of Iran,” Americans’ “greatest enemy” is now the “Radical Left, Highly Incompetent, Democrat Party.” This kind of rhetoric is beyond irresponsible and dangerous. It is anti-American.

@trwsenti Forgot health insurance which is probably 1/3 net income.

$65,000/year sounds great until you do the maths. $14,300 federal tax $4,970 state tax $4,973 FICA $18,000 rent $7,200 car + insurance $6,000 food $1,800 phone + wifi $2,400 utilities Left over: $5,357/year. That's $446/month to "build your future."

@EricLDaugh Great go support your war and enlist.

🚨 BREAKING: In a STUNNING moment, CNN was just forced to report that Donald Trump has 100% MAGA APPROVAL 100%. WOW 🔥 The kicker? The share of voters who call themselves "MAGA" is the *SAME* as when he won in 2024! "You don't have to be a GENIUS to know you can't go higher than 100%!" "Some Republicans disapprove...but they are NOT members of the MAGA movement." Q: But are people leaving MAGA? CNN: "In November 2024, 28% were MAGA. It's basically the SAME, 30%!" "The MAGA base is NOT SHRINKING — it's the SAME SIZE! If anything, it's slightly larger!" "That 100% that Trump has among MAGA GOP, is NOT an artifact of MAGA shrinking. It's just how strong Trump's grip is on the MAGA base!"

@Priscil47005699 @JakeCan72 @emma6USA Lol these ppl really believe in trickle down economics. They read stuff that those implementing it wants them to believe while we continued to be robbed in plain sight.

@JakeCan72 @emma6USA That's capitalism at work.

Rep. Tim Burchett just filled up his dually and called it. “The price of gas is a scam.” America buys zero oil from Iran. The gas in your tank right now was bought weeks ago at the old price. The oil is already in the pipeline. They raised your price anyway. “Prices go up like a rocket and come down with a parachute.”

@blondteeth @JakeCan72 Again

@blondteeth @JakeCan72 I have a historically good paying job as a middle class citizen and barely getting. I have great credit and couldn't even borrow enough to make a real difference. Only a few actually becomes successful when risking everything. Most take the risk and fail, then never have the opp

@blondteeth @JakeCan72 You can't make money without having money. You can't compete with colluding large corps without already having billions. This is why new ideas are bought by Corps and bought for much less than it should sell for. 50% of the nation owns 2% of all wealth. We lost when born

@FinFreedom414 Any million net worth would be nice regardless

Imagine you had to choose your life at age 40: Option A: Single. No kids. $10M net worth. Travel anywhere. Total freedom. Quiet house. Quiet holidays. Option B: Married. 3 kids. $1M net worth. Drive a Toyota. Chaos every morning. Loud house. Full dinner table. Be honest, which life are you choosing?

@blondteeth @JakeCan72 It takes common sense to know markets for services and products are colluded by corps. They are much too powerful for the common man to challenge

@blondteeth @JakeCan72 Basically you are defining an Oligopoly Collusion which is illegal.

@KoalaTales @NFL_DovKleiman Corporations are slave owners to all humanity

@NFL_DovKleiman He's talking about the optics of wealthy owners (mostly white) placing a hard limit on the earnings of the players (mostly black) who generate all the value. It’s an uncomfortable but valid conversation on power

𝗧𝗥𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗜𝗡𝗚: Sports analyst Jalen Rose said only “black-led sports” have salary caps claiming it’s a residue of “slavery” for Black players. "The only sports to have salary caps are black-led. So that's Basketball and Football. That's a residue of slavery." 😳😳😳
