With the election coming up, the IRS plans to reduce our taxes for 2025. it’s a common tactic to make it seem like they won’t tax us into oblivion once they return to office.
CBS News:
Some Americans could see lower federal income taxes in 2025 due to an annual bracket adjustment by the IRS. On the down side, this relief could be more modest than over the past two years.
The IRS typically announces its new tax brackets each fall, but experts are already forecasting next year’s adjustments by crunching the same inflation data the tax agency uses in its annual resets.

Why Kamala Harris must be defeated

Are voters in the Democratic Party’s base actually disturbed by the genocide in Gaza? Or do they merely crave the psychological comfort offered by the Democratic Party and its hollow gestures toward a ceasefire?
Every supporter of Kamala Harris in the 2024 US presidential election must answer this question. There is no getting around it.
Neither can American citizens ignore the harsh reality that the Democratic Party today represents the most bloodthirsty, war-hungry elements of the US ruling elite. It is, unabashedly, the party of neocons, Zionists, hawks, interventionists and security state apparatchiks
This does not excuse the Republican Party, which has been a joint partner with the Democrats in supporting and funding Israel’s genocidal rampage against the Palestinians.
But the fact remains that the Biden-Harris administration is uniquely responsible for the genocide in Gaza. Harris is not some powerless bystander in this equation. She is an active and willing participant in it.
Simply uttering the word “ceasefire” and weeping crocodile tears over the loss of civilian life does not make Harris better than Biden. It just means she knows how to play her part.
It also means that Democratic Party elites recognize they must try to assuage the guilty consciences of some of their voters if they are to have a chance of beating Donald Trump.
Meanwhile, the Biden-Harris administration continues to arm the Israeli regime as it razes the Gaza Strip and assaults the West Bank; deliberately slaughters children, dawn worshippers and journalists; and provokes Iran and Hizballah, accelerating the current massive bombardment of Lebanon in the reckless hope of precipitating a regional war in western Asia.
Red line
For their role in underwriting these crimes against humanity, Biden and Harris alike deserve to be voted out of office – as a bare minimum punishment. Their pathological dishonesty and grotesque virtue signaling only add to their reprehensibility.
Anyone with a shred of morality must see this as a basic, irreversible red line.
Liberals will retort: What about Trump? Wouldn’t he be worse than Biden and Harris?
Frankly, it is a moral obscenity that so many of my fellow Americans can proclaim so blithely that there is something “worse” than an actively unfolding genocide.
But let us address the question directly. Today there is only one administration that is currently strategizing for simultaneous nuclear confrontation with China, Russia and North Korea.
There is only one administration that has made the reckless expansion of NATO the lynchpin of its foreign policy agenda.
And as Israel pushes for a full-scale war with Iran and Lebanon, the US is likely to become a direct participant: because there is one administration that has sent aircraft carrier strike groups to the region to protect Israel. That is the Biden-Harris administration.
On these terms, the Democratic Party’s leadership and army of willing functionaries must be treated not only as guilty of genocide but as a unique existential threat to humankind.
