Welcome to Inside Politics sunday. Im manu raj, in for abby philip. The rally in washington to support the January 6th rioters was a bust. Only a few hundred people showed up but the man they support former President Donald Trump is still dominating his party as much as ever. A Cnn Poll out last Week Show 2 in 10 republicans show that Joe Biden legitimately won the Presidency And Gonzalez said he would rather retire than face a trumpbacked supporter. Trumps response was one down, nine to go and here is one of those nine.

On monday, the democrats plan to pay for the 3. 5 trillion Infrastructure Bill that came into focus. The House Ways And Means Committee announced Tax Hikes that would amount to nearly 2. 1 Trillion in increased revenues. But left unscathed, the vast fortunes of the megarich, like Mark Zuckerberg and elon musk. Perhaps thats why Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasiocortez struck such a chord with the Fashion Statement heard round the world at one of the most opulent events of the year. And to aocs credit, just a few days later, President Biden seemed to echo her sentiments. People with tens of millions of dollars. They play by a different set of rules. Where is it written with all the Tax Breaks in The American Tax Code go to corporations at the very top. I think its enough. Im tired of it. Meanwhile, as democrats plow full steam ahead on their econ
