Kevin McCarthy's claim that Biden's plan will raise taxes on families making over $50,000

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

“President Biden said no one making under $400,000 will see their federal taxes go up. That’s a lie, just like he lied about Afghanistan. In fact, under his plan, an average family who earns over $50,000 will see a tax increase.”

This was such an important pledge to Biden that when, during the 2020 campaign, The Fact Checker identified a few situations in which a taxpayer might inadvertently find themselves snared by a tax change despite not making $400,000, the Biden campaign insisted it would craft the tax bill in a way that addressed the problem.

But Republicans keep insisting that middle-class voters will face a tax increase. We were struck by McCarthy’s comment that “an average family who earns over $50,000 will see a tax increase” — and his use of the word “lie” to describe Biden’s promise. This is a claim that is being echoed by many House Republicans.

1. They need to mislead

middle class voters to vote against their own interests.

2. Fugging evil and ceaseless Republican lies

The Republicans continue to attack Americans with lies, lies, and more, lies:

"McCarthy and other GOP House members claiming, with vituperative language, that Biden has violated his $400,000 promise earn Three Pinocchios."

3. They're trying so hard to brand Biden as a liar

Problem is most anybody who’s ever worked with Joe know he’s one of the most honest people in Washington. I think they lost track of what an a lie actually is, since they lied so many times.

4. That is a lie...but it is not a lie that middle class tax benefits in Trump's stupid tax bill

expire while the ones for the rich do not.
