Who remembers this campaign promise from now-President Joe Biden?
Joe Biden ~ United States government official
Let me be very clear: If you make under $400,000 you won’t pay a penny more in taxes under my administration.

We remember.
But in case you’d forgotten about it, Biden reiterated that promise in his recent interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos (the same interview in which he told Stephanopoulos that he had told Vladimir Putin he had no soul):
Kyle Griffin ~ Biden to ABC: The GOP's "idea of a tax cut is to give the Trump tax cut, where 83% went to the top 1%."
"Anybody making more than $400,000 will see a small to a significant tax increase. If you make less than $400,000, you won't see one single penny in additional federal tax."
Gropey Joe confronted Putin and told him "he has no soul." Uh, yeah ... that didn't happen.
Not one single penny, OK? Not even a smidgen! And if you don’t believe him, you’re full of malarkey.
Unless, of course, you’re looking for a little ... clarification:
Jennifer Jacobs ~ White House clarifies that when Biden said he plans to raise taxes only on those who make $400,000 or more, he meant that will be the threshold for a household, not an individual.
New York Post ~ Biden tax hike could hit people earning $200K, White House clarifies.

Oooops! Appears that Jen Psaki circled back on that fib.
More from the New York Post:
Psaki said at her daily press briefing that the proposed $400,000 threshold for tax increases applies to “families” rather than individuals.
The clarification significantly lowers the tax-hike threshold announced by Biden in an ABC News interview that aired Wednesday.
Biden’s interview statement appeared to indicate the cutoff would be $400,000 in individual income.
Thanks for “clarifying” it all for us, Jen!
Keith Finnegan ~ And just like that, the number changes. 🤔
Aldous Huxley's Ghost ~ Biden campaigning: "I will raise taxes for anybody making over $400,000, and anyone making less than that will face no new taxes!"
Biden now: "Well, ackshulllllllllllllly..."
Whoops!
The Dank Knight ~ Less than two months in office.
Pretty sure this is a record.
The Dank Knight ~ You idiots fell for it.
And if you think it’s gonna stop at people earning $200K, you’re an even bigger idiot. “Tax the rich” is never just taxing the rich.
RC ~ It will be less than 70k when this is all said and done. We got played.
You only got played if you ever believed Joe Biden in the first place. If you knew all along that he was never going to keep his promise, you got exactly what you were expecting.
Classical Libnarf ~ Is anyone surprised? No.
Tim the Golf Starter ~ Gee, nobody saw this coming did they.
Wajiro ~ Is anyone keeping a list of broken campaign promises?
It’s turning out to be a huge job. Better get a lotta people on it.
