BREAKING: The Supreme Court just tore up even more campaign finance rules. BILLIONS in dark, billionaire money is flooding our elections right now. And the Court—bought and packed by these shadowy elites—just made influencing our politics even easier. The system is so rigged.
Billionaire spending in the midterm elections is on track to DOUBLE what they spent four years ago. I need everyone to realize that there's a direct correlation between billionaires buying elections and the fact that this economy only works for them. Tax the rich.
Huge majorities of Americans across the political spectrum want the rich and corporations to pay MORE taxes. Instead, we just gave them trillions in tax BREAKS. Why? Because billionaire families poured $2.6 BILLION into the 2024 election, and $1.7 BILLION into midterms.
Elon Musk just poured $366 MILLION into the midterm election cycle. That's more than he spent to get Trump elected. It's also less than 0.04% of his fortune. Pocket change to buy a Congress that will give him more tax breaks and shut down investigations into his businesses.
Before Citizens United, the top 15 political contributors spent just $15 million on the midterm election. Now, the top 15 have spent $962 MILLION. That's up 6,400%. THIS is why our system is so rigged. We really, really have to end Citizens United and tax the rich.
172 billionaire families have spent $1.7 BILLION influencing the midterms. $962 MILLION of that came from just 15 families. Those are the families who just got $1 TRILLION in tax breaks last year. What are we doing here, folks?
We've been giving the wealthiest people in America tax breaks for 40 years. There are now more billionaires than ever before. There's now more billionaire spending in our politics than ever before. Let me ask you. Is ANY of it "trickling down" to you like they said it would?
75% of small business owners say this economy is one of the hardest of their careers. It all comes down to one thing. We've been transferring wealth upwards to billionaires and corporations in the form of tax breaks and handouts for decades. THAT'S what built this economy.
BREAKING: Elon Musk has dropped $276 MILLION into the midterm elections since July. His $158 MILLION check is one of the biggest political donations in American history. One trillionaire is buying your Congress. Right now.
This summer, we reported that Nvidia spent TWICE what they paid in taxes on stock buybacks. For that amount, they could have given each worker a $2.6 MILLION raise. Since then, they've announced $235 BILLION more in buybacks. It's not "trickling down." Tax stock buybacks.
Meta has used its AI data centers to help them avoid paying $4 BILLION in taxes. If you don't understand what's wrong with that sentence, I've got a bridge to sell you.
Know why Meta's research write-offs have skyrocketed? They're claiming their data centers as "experimentation." Total BS. Multi-billion-dollar corporations should pay their fair share to the country that makes them successful. Instead, they manipulate endless loopholes.
America's biggest companies have bought back $4.8 TRILLION of their own stock since the Trump tax cuts. Nvidia just added $150 BILLION to that. If we taxed stock buybacks, we'd have raised $200 BILLION. Instead, we're going to wait 40 years to see if any of it "trickles down."
