FALSE: CNN Says Americans ‘Unlikely’ to See Higher Taxes Under Biden
NewsBusters ^ | 11/12/2020 | Joseph Vazquez

CNN is trying to hoodwink Americans into believing that their taxes won’t increase under a Biden administration.

The network’s latest article read like a press release by former Vice President Joe Biden’s campaign staff: “The vast majority of Americans are unlikely to see their taxes go up under President-elect Joe Biden, despite false claims by President Donald Trump to the contrary.” The article used the left-wing Tax Policy Center (TPC) as its source. CNN Politics writer Katie Lobosco, in her piece headlined “Will your taxes go up under Biden? It's unlikely,” reiterated the false Biden campaign position that the tax plan “wouldn't raise individual taxes on anyone earning less than $400,000 a year, which is more than 90% of taxpayers.”

That flies directly in the face of a rare fact check that ABC’s Jonathan Karl did on that same Biden claim. The irony is that Karl used the TPC, the same liberal organization Lobosco used to make her absurd claims, to do it.

Biden has promised to repeal the Trump Tax Cuts. That means tax rates will go back up. CNN is deliberately trying to deceive people.

Taxes will go up when the Trump tax cuts expire, and they will try to blame the GOP.

NYT: Republicans, Not Biden, Are About to Raise Your Taxes
