Democrats And Media Come After Third Party Candidate Cornel West For Unpaid Taxes

From the moment that Professor Cornel West announced that he is running for president on a third party ticket, we have been predicting that Democrats and the media would come after West and try to force him out of the race.

Here's a report from the New Republic, via Yahoo News: Cornel West Owes the IRS More than $500,000 in Taxes Presidential candidate Cornel West, who has spent most of his career advocating for higher taxes on the wealthy, owes the IRS more than half a million dollars in unpaid taxes.

Since announcing his run for president, first on the People's Party ticket and currently on the Green Party's, he has argued that taxes on the wealthiest Americans need to be "Higher, much higher." But West hasn't been putting his money where his mouth is-literally.

The Beast cited tax filings in Mercer County, New Jersey, where West owns a house in the town of Princeton, and in Los Angeles, where West's personal attorney is.

The IRS has filed liens against West for the years 2005, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017, when he failed to pay anywhere from more than $62,000 to nearly $137,000 in taxes.

Michigan is one of the key swing states in the 2024 presidential election and in most electoral map scenarios a must-win for Biden If third-party candidate Cornel West is added to the mix, Trump beats Biden with 43% to 41% of the vote.

West received 4% of the vote in the survey, clearly cutting into Biden's margin.
