Democrats’ favorite untruth is that all their plans will be paid for just by taxing millionaires and billionaires. Well, it used to be millionaires and billionaires. Then many Democrats became millionaires, so they only want to tax billionaires. Their latest scheme to pay for Joe Biden’s list of socialist, soggy dreams is the “unrealized capital gains tax.” When you cash out stocks, the money you made–the REALIZED gains–gets taxed. Democrats want to tax you before you realize those gains, then, I’m assuming, keep taxing you while you still unrealize them. Of course, they say this is just for billionaires.
Anyone who knows how to history or math doesn’t believe that. One concerned citizen drafted a generic letter in opposition and tagged Elon Musk in the tweet. For USA citizens opposed to the unrealized capital gains tax proposal by Senator @RonWyden , here is an example of a tactful and diplomatic letter template I made. You can use this or make/post your own. It’s important to write your elected reps.

β Rick McCracken πͺπΊπ«ππ€ (@RichardMcCrackn) October 25, 2021 ” Although the proposal targets billionaires and not myself, the government of elected representatives have a track record of scope creep when writing new taxes. I anticipate that any new unrealized capital gains taxes will slowly make their way down to middle-class retirement investments over the next several years. It will start with billionaires, then eventually millionaires, then the modest investments will get hit possibly within a decade.”
I’m not a billionaire or a millionaire, and this would affect me. Not even in ten years. There would be a massive selloff before the tax went into effect that would cause all stocks to go down, including yours and mine. I’d rather that not happen. One, when PENN hits $300 Dave Portnoy promised me a yacht party. And two, as someone who is closer to retirement age than he is not closer, I’m counting on my investments.
Elon Musk, who is a billionaire , responded to the tweet and said the obvious thing Democrats would prefer never gets said out loud. “Exactly. […]

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. 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!
