2023-08-25 19:07:31 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING

The "$40 billion in profit" cited in this tweet is misleading. It ignores that taxes were assessed based on several years of operation, including years these companies operated at a loss. Selecting this specific date range significantly overstates actual net profit over time. https://itep.org/55-profitable-corporations-zero-corporate-tax/

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1694803013766971778

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
