49% of Trump voters think the wealthy pay too little in taxes. 56% think big corporations don't pay enough. Meanwhile, 71% of Trump voters say cutting Medicaid is unacceptable. So why does Trump want so badly to slash taxes for the wealthy and cut Medicaid to pay for it? 🤔

Of course they’re making working people foot the bill—because they’re the ones cashing in. 🚨 Republicans in Congress writing tax policy have an average net worth of $15 MILLION—and the wealthiest among them stand to pocket $24.6 MILLION from the Trump tax “plan.” This isn’t

A quick walkthrough of Trump Admin plans low-income people: 1.) Taxes on imported groceries, clothing, gas, medicine, & more. 2.) Cuts to nutrition assistance & health care so they pay more for each 3.) Extending the 2017 tax law ($125 tax cut for bottom 20%) Not a good deal.

After mass firings, the IRS is poised to close audits of wealthy taxpayers. IRS agents say that current audits of rich people and corporations could be closed down prematurely. The Treasury Department estimates that the 1% account for $163 billion in unpaid taxes each year.

As President Trump takes the stage tonight, millions of Americans are grappling with rising inflation and higher prices for essentials. Instead of addressing these real economic struggles, Trump will distract with more empty promises and focus on tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy.

Trump's trade war will cost families $3,000 a year—a steep price to cover the budget hole left by tax breaks for the ultra-rich. Instead of focusing on lowering costs for working families, he's shifting the burden onto them to pay for tax breaks for billionaires.

Leb’s message reflects the concerns of many Americans who counted on Trump to keep his promise to lower prices. The question is simple: Will he stand with hard-working families or continue to side with the wealthy? The people who put him in office are watching closely.

What’s especially galling about this statement is the Trump Administration wants to take the revenue they raise from taxing Americans’ food, clothing, and gas and use it to finance tax cuts tilted to the wealthy.

4 in 5 Americans support raising taxes on the rich — Democrats, Republicans, and Independents. Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress want to cut taxes for the rich and pay for it by slashing funding for nursing homes and school lunches.

The Trump-Musk Regime is reportedly planning to cut as much as 50% of the IRS workforce. Make no mistake: this will starve the government of revenue by making it easier for the rich to evade taxes — which the top 1% already do to the tune of $163 billion a year. Hello?

IRS Direct File gives people the power to file taxes for free, but tax prep giants like TurboTax are lobbying to shut it down. Their business model depends on overcharging people—which is why they don’t want you to know there’s a better, free way to do it. fair.org/home/millionai…

The chainsaw cuts through health care, food assistance, and programs that help working people, but has an off-switch for the rich? How convenient. 😑

House Republicans are playing pretend, saying they won’t cut Medicare or Medicaid while pushing a budget that can only work by cutting both—all to fund tax cuts for the ultra-rich.

In order to give tax breaks to billionaires, House Republicans are putting Medicaid on the chopping block – even at the expense of their own constituents. It’s just plain cruel. cnn.com/2025/03/07/pol…

In 2017, Trump gave a $2 trillion tax cut mostly sucked up by billionaires and big corporations. But it was so expensive, Republicans set many of their tax cuts to end after 2025. Now, Republicans want to steal from working people to pay for more tax cuts for billionaires.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump are going to pay for tax breaks for billionaires and giant corporations by cutting Social Security and Medicare. Everyone needs to be talking about this.

Republican values: If you’re a billionaire, here’s a tax cut. If you’re a working family, good luck affording groceries, healthcare, or childcare.

And these are the same people who would get a MASSIVE windfall from tax cuts while working Americans foot the bill. Make it make sense.
