Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 6hThe Big Ugly Bill adds $3.4 TRILLION to the national debt. Not to fund schools. Not to fix roads. Not to lower your grocery bill. To pad the wallets of people who already own most of the country. Your grandkids get the bill. The donor class gets the breaks. 012147
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 8h$94 BILLION. That's how much 21 utility companies spent on dividends and stock buybacks from 2023 through 2025. Families are choosing between electricity and groceries. This is what tax breaks for the rich buy you. 47532
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 11hYou're paying MORE for groceries. MORE for gas. MORE for rent. MORE for utilities. The President is making BILLIONS from crypto and foreign deals. He's now worth $7 BILLION. That's $2.7 BILLION richer since he won the 2024 election. This is what RIGGED looks like. 12612
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Before the Trump-GOP tax law, corporations paid a 35% rate. Now they pay 21%. For the first time in nearly a century, the average American family pays a HIGHER effective tax rate than corporations. They flipped the script on working people. 35534
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Billionaires want you to think taxing their wealth "doesn't do anything." Massachusetts passed a millionaire tax and raised $3.1 BILLION. That money is funding bridges, buses, teachers, and free community college. Wealth taxes WORK. That's why the rich hate them. Tax the rich. 25119
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 02/10/2026In the entire span from Reagan to Biden, no President traded individual stocks while in office. The norm was clear. The ethics were clear. Trump threw it out. 24,000+ trades later, he is posting AI-generated images about it and selling $100k/month insider access. 03412
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 02/10/2026The top 0.1% benefited from the corporate tax rate dropping from 10.5% in 2015 to as low as 5% in 2019. The bottom 50% of households got essentially zero benefit. Corporate profits grew 59% since 2015. Worker wages did not. The Trump corporate tax cut was a wealth transfer. Full stop. 22920
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Heating oil costs are expected to jump 50% this winter. That's $878 MORE out of working families' pockets just to stay warm. We could do something to make things easier for working people. But instead we just give billionaires more tax breaks and expect it to "trickle down." 78235
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 02/10/2026A truck driver working 40 hours a week making $50,000 pays $3,800 in federal income tax. An investor making $50,000 in capital gains pays $0. That is the rigged tax code in plain English. 410044
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Trump wants us to "just trust" Musk, Zuckerberg, and all the other billionaires to police themselves on AI. The same guys buying politicians to get themselves huge tax breaks. And we're just handing them the reins for the most powerful tech in human history? Pay attention. 22812
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 01/10/2026A cashier making $35,000 a year pays a 14% effective federal tax rate. Someone making $35,000 in capital gains pays $0. Same income. Two completely different tax systems. One punishes work. The other rewards wealth. 04822
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 01/10/2026So let me get this straight. Microsoft can spend $176 BILLION on stock buybacks. $1 BILLION on its top 5 execs. $190 BILLION on AI infrastructure. But 4,800 workers are "disposable" because executives want greater returns? Get real. 17364116
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 30/09/202675% of the benefits from the lower capital gains tax rate go to the top 1% of households. Households under $200,000 earn just 7% of all capital gains. They pay the higher rate on wages so the rich can pay less on their stock portfolios. This is not a glitch. 14517
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Trump made more than $1.4 BILLION from cryptocurrency in 2025. While you stress about rent and groceries. While your earned benefits get cut. And you really still believe all the handouts for the rich are meant to trickle down instead of staying in their own pockets? 13212
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Families skip meals to afford groceries. They skip repairs to keep a roof. They skip everything to raise their kids. Meanwhile, billionaires get tax breaks handed to them every year. Why WOULDN'T Congress expand the Child Tax Credit and make the wealthy pay their fair share? 13515
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 30/09/2026The Treasury Department LOOSENED a minimum tax on giant corporations. Meta told investors it saved them BILLIONS. So Trump's team made the AI giveaway EVEN BIGGER. This isn't tax policy. It's THEFT from taxpayers. 15534
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Republicans cut $1 trillion from Medicaid. They handed billionaires a $3.7 trillion tax break. They call it a budget. We call it THEFT. 11.8+ million Americans lose healthcare. The top 1% gets richer. That is the SCAM. 03923
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 30/09/2026The Trump corporate tax cut will cost $600 BILLION in lost federal revenue. For every $100 of it, $75 went straight to the wealthiest 5% of households and foreign investors. The bottom 80% of Americans got $10. That is not trickle down. That is a heist. 15317
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 30/09/2026The Child Tax Credit is worth up to $2,200 per child. But here's the SCAM—families who earn the least get the least help. At the same time, billionaires who need the least get the biggest tax breaks. This is what we're talking about when we say the economy is rigged. 0377
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Trump made $1.4 BILLION in crypto profits in 2025. His sons' companies got $3.2 BILLION in federal money. Their billionaire friends raked in massive tax breaks. The rest of us got higher prices, attacked earned benefits, no relief. THE SWAMP WON. 12713
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Senate reporting logged 130 TIMES Elon Musk used DOGE to benefit his own companies. He cut regulators. He killed oversight.

Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 29/09/2026MAGA Inc sits on a $400 MILLION war chest. That's more than the budget of some entire states. While you skip coffee, billionaires are buying Congress. Tax the rich. 1288
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 29/09/2026A new Alex Gibney documentary calls Elon Musk out. His lawyers sent threat letters before the premiere. But the numbers don't lie. Musk spent $278 MILLION in 2024. 100 billionaire families dumped $2.6 BILLION into federal elections. That is one of every six dollars spent. 02710
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Trump has spent over $1.2 million of YOUR tax dollars on campaign ads. Aired during NFL games while families can't afford groceries or gas. The White House calls this "public service." No. This is THEFT, plain and simple. 724985
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Elon Musk spent $278 MILLION buying the 2024 election. That is FOUR TIMES what he paid in federal income taxes between 2013 and 2018. The richest 1% are set to pocket $1 TRILLION in tax breaks this decade. While Musk's SpaceX launches rockets, working families get stuck with the bill. 39452
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Trump rails against elites while billionaires fund him. Meanwhile, 16 of the top 20 donors back conservatives.

Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Peter Thiel bankrolled JD Vance with $15 MILLION. Then Vance organized a $12 MILLION Trump fundraiser for Thiel's billionaire buddies. Billionaires write the checks. They own the government. We get the bill. 03014
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 27/09/2026The GOP's new framework gives crypto billionaires audit immunity and built-in conflicts of interest. While working people pay taxes out of every single paycheck. Pay attention, folks. 04922
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 25/09/2026The unspoken rule of the modern Presidency: you don't trade individual stocks while in office. Clinton followed it. GW Bush followed it. Obama followed it. Biden followed it. Trump tore it up. 24,000+ trades and counting. 13718
Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Elon Musk spent $250 MILLION to elect Trump. Now he's spending over $100 MILLION more for the 2026 midterms. One man. $350 MILLION. Buying our government. ...Even though he said he was "done with politics." 44113

Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Every dollar we hand the rich in tax breaks is a dollar they don't spend on workers, lower prices, or better jobs. They spend it on stock buybacks, dividends, and yachts. Stop believing the lie. 23812

Americans for Tax Fairness @4taxfairness.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Billionaires and insurance giants found a LOOPHOLE. They dodge state bans by hiding behind shell companies called MSOs.
