After Paying the Largest Tax Bill in US History, Elon Musk Schools Elizabeth Warren for Claiming He Paid Zero in Tax
Senator Elizabeth Warren who previously lied and claimed she was part Indian, told another lie and claimed Tesla billionaire Elon Musk paid zero in taxes. After paying the largest individual tax in history, Musk let her have it.
The Outsider reported:
Elon Musk owns a lot of world records, but he’d prefer if he didn’t have this one. The Tesla CEO said his $11 billion personal income tax bill is the biggest in U.S. history. He plans to stop by the IRS on his next trip to Washington, D.C., to see if the agency will give him a consolation prize for the accomplishment.
The SpaceX founder addressed his massive tax payment on Twitter Sunday after someone shared a video of Sen. Elizabeth Warren attacking billionaires for using tax loopholes. In the CNN interview, the Massachusetts Democrat said Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos needed to contribute more.
“You know how much [Elon Musk] paid in taxes, one of the richest people in the world? Zero! And he’s not the only one,” she said. “Jeff Bezos, another one of the richest people in the world, he pays less in taxes than a public school teacher or a firefighter.”

Musk saw the comments from the Senator known as Pocahontas or Liawatha and responded:
Will visit IRS next time I’m in DC just to say hi, since I paid the most taxes ever in history for an individual last year. Maybe I can have a cookie or something …
