They are telling you you "can't tax capital gains" while they fly private jets from their yacht in the South of France to their third home in Aspen. Stop buying it. They live off their capital gains the same way we live off our income. The difference is, we pay our fair share.

So billionaires can use their capital gains to buy yachts, mansions, social media platforms, and rockets, but they can't be taxed on their capital gains? Give me a damn break.

Tesla's proposed pay package for Elon Musk could make him a trillionaire. He could solve homelessness in America for 30 years. But he won't, because trickle-down economics is fake. He's going to keep all that money and like, go to Mars. This is why I want to tax billionaires.

This is how billionaires are using the giant tax breaks we keep giving them, BTW.

The 15 wealthiest billionaires in America are each worth over $100 billion. Their wealth has grown by over 300% since the last round of Trump tax cuts—and he just gave them more. There is nothing anyone can tell me to convince me that taxing them is a bad or stupid idea.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but the only way we're really going to fix our rigged economy and broken political system is by making it so billionaires can no longer accumulate massive wealth they don't have to pay a dime of taxes on. Pass a Billionaires Income Tax now.

"You can't tax wealth growth because it's not cash." Wealth growth is INCOME. Billionaires aren't living off their labor. They're borrowing against their massive stocks to buy mansions and a yacht. They should have to pay taxes on their income the same way the rest of us do.

If you're wondering whether you should vehemently defend billionaires who don't care if you live or die from having to pay a Billionaires Income tax today, here's a handy flowchart. You're welcome.

Thank you to every member of Congress who cosponsored the Billionaires Income Tax! 🔥 Don't see your Senators or Representative on this list? Seems like a good day to contact them and tell them billionaires should pay taxes on their income just like the rest of us do.

They slash school budgets while handing billionaires tax breaks. They gut teachers and programs, even cutting services for blind and deaf students, then blame kids for “falling behind.” Call it what it is 📢 #GOPCutsKillEducation

There are 354 more billionaires now than there were at the end of 2017—up 40%. Yet the rest of us can’t afford a house, and groceries are more expensive than ever. We gave "trickle-down economics" a chance, and it failed. I think it's only fair that we try a Billionaires Income Tax.

BREAKING: Senator Wyden just reintroduced the Billionaires Income Tax. Billionaires would be required to pay taxes on their income from wealth—just like the rest of us pay on our income from working. It would raise $560 BILLION we need for healthcare, education, and more.

BREAKING: Billionaires in America now hold a record $7.6 TRILLION in wealth. That's a $4.7 TRILLION increase since the last Trump tax scam. Yes, wealth increase is a form of INCOME. And most of that income will never be taxed. This is why we need a Billionaires Income Tax.

Almost 80% of Americans believe our system needs major changes or complete reform. The people know our economy doesn't work for them. And they're about to realize that it's not the immigrants—it's the billionaires. Our system has been rigged against us. Tax billionaires.

There are no kings in America, no matter how hard billionaires and corporations try to rig the rules to make it so. Join us on October 18th: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=atf

This is indeed everything. Also important to note where this spending is coming from. Over 75% of capital gains income goes to households in the top 10% of total income, while nearly everybody else is almost totally dependent on wages. @talsmith.bsky.social

Palantir, CoreCivic, and GEO Group are all helping ICE go after immigrants. Their CEOs collectively got upwards of $88 MILLION in Trump tax breaks over the past seven years. They're about to pocket even more from government contracts and another round of tax cuts. Really.

Palantir is the data giant behind ICE's attacks on immigrants. Its co-founder is JD Vance's billionaire benefactor. Stephen Miller owns around $250,000 of its stock. Its CEO got up to an $85 MILLION Trump tax break over 7 years. You see what's happening here, right?

Health insurance is about to be the most expensive it’s been for a long time. 14 million people will lose coverage in the coming years. Our healthcare system is about to get rocked—and it'll mess up the economy, too. But hey, at least the richest 1% are getting tax breaks.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but this is terrible for the economy. Brace yourselves.

Rhode Island passed a surcharge on second homes worth over $1 million this year. The people who own multiple million-dollar homes won't even notice the extra tax. There is nothing anyone can tell me to convince me that this is a bad or stupid idea.

A single poorly-written clause in Trump's first tax cuts accidentally gave giant multinational corporations a $1 BILLION tax break. When was the last time working people got a billion dollars—by mistake or otherwise? Our system is so rigged.

THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS NOW STOPPING THE IRS FROM GOING AFTER CORPORATE TAX CHEATS. THIS ONE EFFORT WAS GOING TO RAISE $100 BILLION. $100 BILLION DOWN THE DRAIN SO BIG OIL BARONS AND THE GUYS IN THE EPSTEIN FILES CAN KEEP NOT PAYING TAXES LIKE THE REST OF US DO. SCAM.

The Labor Department says housing and food prices have risen. Inflation just rose to 2.9%. Jobless claims are at their highest in almost four years. But I'm sure cutting healthcare and food assistance to give the richest 1% a six-figure tax break will help. Buckle up.

"Surely healthcare corporations paying less taxes meant they had more money to lower costs and improve patient care?" Nope. Care denials rose. Staffing dropped. Patient costs went up. Stock buybacks skyrocketed. Corporate 👏 tax 👏 cuts 👏 don't 👏 trickle 👏 down 👏

So the Trump administration told the IRS to quit investigating corporations who hide money in tax havens to avoid paying taxes. But they're mad that a federal court told them they couldn't make the IRS hand data to ICE to go after immigrants. Who's weaponizing the IRS now?

Let me get this straight. In this country, if you're a tax-cheating corporation abusing tax havens, the government will stop the IRS from looking into it. But if you're an immigrant creating a better life for your family, the government will use IRS data to come after you?

Before the Affordable Care Act, 13.3% of Americans were uninsured. Since then, that number hit a record-low 8%. Trump kicking millions off the ACA to fund tax cuts for the rich will reverse that. Do we really think 12.3% of Americans being uninsured is good for the economy?!

Don't worry, I'm sure taking people's healthcare and grocery money and giving it to the richest 1% will help a ton 👍

New Mexico just became the first state to guarantee universal childcare. Families are projected to save an average of $12,000 A YEAR per child. And it's all funded by taxes on oil and gas reserves. We can fix the economy for working people if we tax the rich and corporations.

We are constantly told that we have to cut taxes for corporations, or they'll raise prices and cut jobs. Here's what happened after 7 of the biggest healthcare corporations got tax breaks: —Denied more care —Dropped staff —Raised costs Their profits went up by 75%, though.

LOOK AT THIS CHART. TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH DIDN'T DROP THE CHILD POVERTY RATE IN 2021. GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS DID. SNAP. THE CHILD TAX CREDIT. MEDICAID. CHILD POVERTY RATES ARE GETTING WORSE AND THE PEOPLE IN CHARGE ARE NOW CUTTING SNAP AND MEDICAID TO GIVE THE RICH TAX BREAKS.

14 million people losing their healthcare is going to screw up our economy way more than people realize. They don't want you paying attention to that. They want you to believe handing the richest 1% a six-figure tax break will magically lower your rent or your grocery bills.

Every hospital in America is projected to lose $1 million to $4 million every single year because of Medicaid cuts. Never, ever, ever forget that the exact amount they cut Medicaid by went to tax breaks for people who make over half a million dollars a year.

SNAP kept 3.6 MILLION people above the poverty line in 2024. So the people in charge are cutting it by 20%. Tax cuts for the rich and corporations did absolutely nothing for anybody except the rich and corporations. So the people in charge are extending them. It's a scam.

States are facing huge budget problems because Trump keeps taking our money. But Massachusetts has $2 billion more than anticipated because of a small 4% surtax on millionaires. We know what our states need to do to make life better for working people. They just need to do it.

HOSPITALS NATIONWIDE ARE PROJECTED TO LOSE $25 BILLION EVERY YEAR BECAUSE WE JUST HAD TO CUT MEDICAID IN ORDER TO GIVE THE RICHEST 1% A SIX-FIGURE TAX BREAK. THE GUYS IN THE EPSTEIN FILES GET TO BUY ANOTHER YACHT WHILE YOUR HOSPITAL GOES BROKE. WE ARE BEING SCAMMED.

We gave healthcare CEOs tax breaks. They bought yachts while denying cancer patients treatment. We gave healthcare corporations tax breaks. Shareholder profits boomed while families were forced to choose between insulin and rent. What are we doing here?

Newsflash. Corporate tax breaks don't trickle down to workers. Tariffs don't create jobs. Here's a concept—how about instead of waiting around for CEOs to do the right thing, we make economic policy that's focused on actually helping working people?

The wealthy and powerful will always look out for each other. Why do you think billionaires spent record money on last year's election? Why do you think Congress just passed massive tax breaks for billionaires? Why do you think they spent millions stacking the Supreme Court?

What do these healthcare corporations have in common? Anthem Centene CVS HCA Holdings Humana Cigna Universal Health Services They avoided $34 BILLION in taxes while hiking costs, denying care, and cutting staff. Corporate tax cuts don't help anyone but CEOs and shareholders.

The richest 0.1% is about to get a $286,000 tax break apiece in 2026. Every single NFL team owner is in the richest 0.1%. Their tax cuts could make 66,000 tickets free. Instead, they're raising concession prices. Tax breaks for the rich are completely useless.

The median NFL team owner has around $7 billion in wealth. The median household wealth in America is around 35,000 times less. And yet we're the ones paying higher ticket costs, and more for beer and hot dogs. And they're the ones getting six-figure tax breaks.

This is your football season reminder that NFL team owners are worth an average of $10.6 BILLION. The median NFL fan makes around $85,000. And they're still raising ticket prices and making beer and hot dogs more expensive. Those guys do not deserve six-figure tax breaks.

Really need Gen Z to remember that Trump stole all the stuff we care about to fund tax breaks for billionaires when the safety net is shredded, climate change gets even worse, education tanks, and the deficit explodes.

Billionaire NFL team owners are going to get about $286,000 in tax breaks next year. The tax cut YOU get will be wiped out by Trump's tariffs. Beer and hot dog prices are going up. The cost of attending a game has shot up 40% in the last ten years. More for them, less for us.

Target underpays their workers but donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration. But we’re about to give corporations like them billions more in tax breaks while we lose healthcare. Great.

Trump hosted over a dozen Big Tech CEOs at the White House last night. The group's wealth sits above $350 BILLION. The CEOs spent the evening thanking Trump for giving them handouts. And thousands of families had to decide between rent, healthcare, and groceries last night.

The Trump-GOP 2017 tax law has saved seven US healthcare corporations a total of $34 billion in taxes. New report from @4taxfairness.bsky.social and @communitycatalyst.org: americansfortaxfairness.org/wp-content/u...

Trump's tariffs are now on track to cost households an average $2,400 per year. The richest 1% won't feel it—they're getting a six-figure tax break. Meanwhile, your tax cut might cover one grocery run if you're lucky. You're getting screwed to prop up the rich. Wake up.
