Reminder: no matter how many times Republicans say otherwise, there is *no way* they can pay for their proposed tax cuts without gutting Medicaid and other programs that millions of people rely on.

Don't believe their lies for a second.

The IRS unit that audits ultrawealthy earners has lost 38% of its employees this year.

This will starve the government of revenue by making it easier for the rich to evade taxes — which the top 1% already do to the tune of $163B a year.

Tariffs and inflation.
Tariffs are a federal import/export tax, akin to a state sales tax. Once a state sales tax is approved, you may not like it but you pay it.
Similarly for imports,the consumer pays the total price including tariffs. The resulting higher prices lead to cost push inflation.
