This is the best visualization I've seen of the problem. It's been the agenda of the Club for Growth crowd since Reagan (&, to a lesser extent, earlier).

Watch how the ultra-wealthy in America gradually raised the taxes of the poor and eventually bent the curve downward until they paid the lowest tax rate of all

Despite the (ahem) coverup at the Kennedy Center to prevent video of his name being stripped from the building, it’s happening at last.
Cry harder, MAGAe.
In the end, nothing with his name on it will survive.

trump is rapidly becoming a lame duck President.
His name has already been removed from the Kennedy Center.
And his name will be removed from everything in due time.
He will go down as the worst President in American history with very little permanent changes he can point to.
Breaking news: President Trump’s name is off the Kennedy Center.
The building’s exterior reads “The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts” once more. wapo.st/4fDvtWg

Dear @SecRollins: You lie. The average life cycle of a Screwworm ranges from 14 to 54 days depending on temperature and humidity.
The trump Administration has been in office over 500 days.
If you can’t accept responsibility, or even apologize for messing up, you need to resign.

The sitting president of the United States sent lawyers from our department of justice to make sure our former Attorney General didn’t answer any questions about his potential involvement in a child sex trafficking ring.
But sure, nothing to see here, right?

Trump took another cognitive/dementia test at Walter Reed.
They don’t just give these things out for fun, and it’s definitely not normal to take them several times a year if there’s no concern.

Now we know why trump still hasn’t been able to open the Straight of Hormuz.
It’s because, in the cognitively impaired mind of trump, Iran cleverly has the only Schrödinger military in the world: it exists and it doesn’t exist all at the same time.
Trump on Iran: We sort of left their military alone because we think that their military is somewhat moderate. We’ve actually let their military alone.
Moments later: Iran is a very bad position. They have no military.

Elon Musk: If Kamala wins she'll hide the Epstein files, & be a threat to democracy.
If Trump wins he'll release the Epstein files, & focus on the people.

It’s interesting watching the people who absolutely love it when Trump calls female reporters “piggy” or “fucking bitches” clutch their pearls and cry because someone called Stephen Miller an ugly fuck.

The fact that almost EVERY former confederate state is moving to completely eliminate Black representatives almost immediately after the SCOTUS decision should be more than enough proof that voting rights still need protection and racism is far from gone in this country.

The most frustrating thing about the NBA’s flopping epidemic is that the league could end it within weeks. Hand out real punishments and the players would adjust real fast.

Trump fell asleep again during a live televised meeting. If Joe Biden had done that, the media would have treated it like a national emergency and run wall-to-wall panic coverage for a week.
But when Trump does it, they look the other way because the clown show keeps their ratings up and their pockets full.
The hypocrisy is disgraceful. The media failed the country, and they know it.

RFK Jr: "A Democratic senator claimed it's mathematically impossible to have a drug drop by 600%. I said, 'Well, if the drug was $100 and it raises to $600, that would be a 600% rise. If it drops from $600 to $100, that's a 600% savings.'"
Trump: "Right"
Community note
Factual and mathematical error
A 100% reduction means the entire original value is removed, resulting in a final amount of zero. It signifies complete elimination or a 100% discount, such as a price dropping from $600 to 0$
increase from $100 to $600 is 500% increase
