Original Note:
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/
