If the budget fails, the top Republican warns of the largest tax hike in history.
The chairman of the largest House GOP caucus is using Tax Day to send a warning about the financial strain American families could face next year if Republicans fail in their plans for a massive conservative policy change. If Congress does not pass a budget reconciliation bill, millions of Americans could see their taxes increase by as much as one-fifth, according to August Pfluger, Chairman of the Republican Study Committee. "If Democrats get their way and let these tax cuts expire, Americans will be crushed by the largest tax hike in history - a 22% increase hitting 40 million families and 26 million small businesses," Pfluger said. "It's time to lock in these historic tax cuts permanently to boost job creation, fuel America's economic engine, and protect family budgets from the Left's tax-and-spend agenda." The House GOP's defacto conservative think tank, the RSC, has more than 175 members. The group is fighting to make the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act permanent so families can keep more of their hard-earned money. The chair of the budget task force said that extending the TCJA would help the U.S. become the most attractive country in which to invest, relocate, or expand a business. "These vital, pro-growth tax reforms will work alongside our efforts to slash federal regulations and bureaucracy to empower economic expansion and financial security for the American people and our job creators," she said....

Multiple sources familiar with the matter say that OpenAI is working on its own social network. While the project is still in the early stages, we are told that there is an internal prototype that has a social feed. Our sources say that CEO Sam Altman has been asking for feedback about the project. It is not clear if the social network will be released as a separate app or integrated into the most downloaded app in the world. An OpenAI spokesman didn't reply in time. Launching a social network in the area would likely increase the rivalry between the two men. In February, after Musk made an offer to purchase OpenAI for $97.4 billion, Altman responded: "no thank you but we will buy twitter for $9.74 billion if you want."
