He might as well have said, “Read my lips: No new taxes.”
Joe Biden didn’t claim he wouldn’t raise taxes when campaigning for president in 2020, but he did promise to only raise taxes on those making over $400,000 per year. Here’s the receipt from Washington Post:
The Biden-Harris regime reiterated this promise last March when then-White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki discussed tax hikes that were being proposed at the time.
“Nobody making under $400,000 a year will have their taxes increased,” Psaki said.
With food shortages coming, it’s a smart move to order organic, cooked, freeze-dried chicken for long-term storage from Prepper Organics.
If Democrats can pass their “Inflation Reduction Act of 2022” and if Biden signs it into law, that promise will not just be broken. It will be obliterated. It doesn’t just reduce the limit from $400,000/year down a tax bracket or two. It takes it all the way down.
From page 1 of their proposed bill [average tax rates highlighted]:
As the chart shows, the average tax rate for Americans making over $30,000 per year will go up across the board, and that’s just for 2023. The report continues into next decade, showing increases for most brackets in years to come.
Arguably the worst part about all of this is that the bill doesn’t match the name, as is often the case with legislation coming out of Democrat-run Capitol Hill. We have a near-consensus from economists on both sides of the political aisle saying this will not reduce inflation in the near-term and most are acknowledging that it won’t affect inflation long-term, either.
It seems like Senator Kyrsten Sinema is the only person who may stop this economic abomination, and that’s assuming Chuck Schumer can’t get a RINO or two in the Senate to back his plan.
Democrats have lost any hopes that Joe Biden could win reelection, and that’s concerning. It means any promises he made in 2020 can be broken without fear of election repercussions, and that makes his regime even more dangerous than they already are.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
