President Biden’s State of the Union address presented a vision of higher taxes for American businesses and high earners combined with carveouts, credits, and more complex rules for taxpayers at all income levels. Soon after, the president released his FY 2025 budget outlining how the White House would implement the president’s tax vision, indicating a gross tax hike of about $5.3 trillion from 2024 to 2034.
On a gross basis, we estimate Biden’s FY 2025 budget would increase taxes by about $4.4 trillion over that period. After taking various credits into account, the increase would be about $3.4 trillion. The tax increases would substantially increase marginal tax rates on investment, saving, and work, reducing economic output by 2.2 percent in the long run, wages by 1.6 percent, and employment by 788,000 full-time equivalent jobs.

Senate Dems Call Protecting Unborn Babies ‘Dangerous’ and ‘Extreme’
- By Suzanne Bowdey
“I’m not the same person,” a 19-year-old girl known only as #13 wanted the Supreme Court to know. “I regret my abortion so much. … I think about it every day.” Taking the abortion pill “was traumatizing,” she says, thinking about the tiny little person she saw. “I just died a little bit. My boyfriend and I miss our baby.”
A woman listed as A.C. thinks back with dismay to calling 911. She was waiting at the pharmacy for the painkillers and suddenly felt wet. “I … look[ed] down at my jeans and was shocked to see [that] I was covered in blood, from the top of the inseam down to my knees. Tears began to flood my eyes,” she remembers, filled with “horror and embarrassment. … My shock,” she says, “turn[ed] into sorrow when I … found the sac with my tiny baby in it. …I held her for a moment before folding up the toilet paper and setting it into the feminine products bin.” She called the abortion center in pain and grief, and they told her to call 911. So she just lied there “in the fetal position. … The bleeding continue[d] for days,” she says of the gruesome experience. There was also a smell that “reminded me … of what I had done.”

Unapproved Nuke Model Part of SC 'Clean Electricity' Plan
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
S.C. officials want to spend millions of state tax dollars on a new “clean electricity” strategy that includes a type of nuclear technology currently not in use by any U.S. utility, an investigation by The Nerve has found.
In recently passing its version of the nearly $41 billion total state budget for fiscal 2024-25, which starts July 1, the Republican-controlled S.C. House designated $50 million out of a state “rainy-day” fund for the "South Carolina Nexus for Advanced Resilient Energy,” or “SC Nexus” for short.
In an application submitted last year – which The Nerve recently reviewed – for federal designation as an inaugural “Tech Hub,” the S.C. Department of Commerce said the state’s expanding manufacturing sector, along with the scheduled closure of two of three regional coal plants by 2030, “provides opportunity to innovate, scale, and export new electricity technology and intellectual property.”

Speaker Mike Johnson Announces Plan to Fund Ukraine War Effort
- By The John Birch Society
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson has announced he plans to pass funding for Ukraine — with support from Democrats in the face of opposition from constitutionalist Republicans.Foreign aid is unconstitutional, since it isn’t one of the enumerated powers delegated to Congress under Article I, Section 8, of the U.S. Constitution. Instead of unconstitutionally prioritizing the borders of other countries, Congress must put America’s borders and national interests first.Please contact Congress, and urge them to oppose all foreign aid to Ukraine and other countries.
