Why the Politics of Taxes Is Such a Dumpster Fire | 4/15/25

On this Tax Day, I explain why taxes are not the issue of our time. Due to withholdings, the progressive nature of the GOP tax cuts over the years, and the change in the politics of most wealthy people, we have no good move to make on taxes. Which is why spending cuts should be the bigger issue. Unfortunately, there is no plan to cut spending. I go through the fake nature of reconciliation, DOGE cuts, and rescissions.  We also offer some updates on the courts and immigration and why there will be no mass deportations. Finally, Florida is on the cusp of becoming a fake red state like every GOP supermajority, as Byron Donalds stealthily refuses to take sides in the political civil war.  Learn more about your ad choices.
