Let\u2019s make sure the wealthiest corporations pay their fair share.\u201d\u2026\u2026..<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Biden\u2019s head-scratching tweet sparked a bigger reaction than the White House probably expected when one of the Democratic Party\u2019s biggest boosters, billionaire Jeff Bezos, owner of The Washington Post, tweeted back, \u201cThe newly created Disinformation Board should review this tweet, or maybe they need to form a new Non Sequitur Board instead.\u201d\u2026\u2026.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Two days later, Bezos took to Twitter again: \u201cThe administration tried hard to inject even more stimulus into an already over-heated, inflationary economy and only Manchin saved them from themselves. Inflation is a regressive tax that most hurts the least affluent. Misdirection doesn\u2019t help the country.\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>By Monday, it was the new presidential press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, in the hot seat over Biden\u2019s tweet when Fox News\u2019 Peter Doocy asked her how taxing corporations translates into lower inflation.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jean-Pierre served up a classic word salad that ignored the president\u2019s focus on taxing corporations and instead leveled her sights on the rich: \u201cLook, we have talked about \u2026 this past year, about making sure that the wealthiest among us are paying their fair share, and that is important to do.\u201d \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>She went on, \u201cSo I think we encourage those who have done very well, especially those who care about climate change, to support a fairer tax code that doesn\u2019t charge manufacturers, workers, cops, builders a higher percentage of their earnings than the most fortunate people in our nation, and not let that stand in the way of reducing energy costs and fighting an existential problem, if you think about it, that is an example. To support basic collective bargaining rights as well.\u201d\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Note that she avoided Doocy\u2019s question, and for good reason \u2014 increasing taxes on business will increase the prices they charge, not lower them.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When Jeff Bezos, the owner of the Washington Post, a Democrat rag, calls you a lying moron, well, I don\u2019t suppose you\u2019re gonna get much sympathy from Fox News.\u00a0 Worse for the Democrats, the voters aren\u2019t buying it this time.\u00a0 A lot of Americans are sort of lazy and uninformed but not being able to buy food or even find formula for a new-born has a way of focusing the mind on who\u2019s responsible for your misery.\u00a0 I\u2019m guessing they\u2019ll be needing a new press secretary in a few weeks.\u00a0 This one will be used up soon.\u00a0 Maybe the next one should be a deaf mute or maybe an exotic dancer.\u00a0 Either way it will de-emphasize the importance of the questions and answers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019ve got to hand it to Biden.\u00a0 Who else could force both Jeff Bezos and Peter Doocy to call you a lying moron.\u00a0 Biden and<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[3519],"class_list":["post-18941","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-current-events","tag-failed-biden-presidency"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.4 -
