President Joe Biden and first lady Dr. Jill Biden earned $619,976 in 2023, according to their joint tax returnreleased by the White House on Monday – the deadline date for Americans to file their taxes.
The White House also released the return for Vice President Kamala Harris and second gentleman Doug Emhoff, showing that pair made $450,299 last year.
“President Biden believes that all occupants of the Oval Office should be open and honest with the American people,” the White House said in a statement on Monday, “and that the longstanding tradition of annually releasing presidential tax returns should continue unbroken.”
That statement could be seen as a dig at former President Donald Trump, who declined to voluntarily release his tax returns while he was president. Six years of Trump’s tax returns, including from his time as president, were released to the public by the House Ways and Means Committee at the end of 2022.
The bulk of the Bidens’ income came from President Biden’s congressionally mandated $400,000 salary, along with pensions. The first lady also earned $85,985 from her position as a teacher at Northern Virginia Community College.
President does not pay Teachers.
I know, I can be annoyed without it being in their control.
But you see the point of the article is to get folk thinking about the inequity and blame the President. Thus, while you didn’t take the bait, you are circling the hook and paying attention.
Because theres large inequity and it should be addressed
Next complaint: they make that much and get public housing? Wtf? (/s)
relevance to the issue being discussed is the problem. not the other, utterly unrelated to anything involved in this thread, issue folks insist upon attempting to derail this thread with.
Tolookah never suggested that.
incorrect. the assumption is implied from the headline and while no that was not the comment’s intent it is playing along none the less.
You’re saying Tolookah is “playing along” with an “implied assumption” [that you made] from the headline.
So they still never said that Biden directly pays teachers. You made an assumption about a headline and are forcing it as a strawman argument.
There’s need to be condescending and dismissive, it makes it unpleasant to have discussions online.
No, I did not say that. In fact I explicitly state that was not their intent. Please desist in lying.
I don’t know what to say… It’s clear that you’re either trolling at this point or just very toxic. Blocked.
