Sen. Elizabeth Warren criticized Jeff Bezos for not paying taxes after he landed back on earth.

Warren has criticized Bezos' tax rate before, including after a bombshell ProPublica report revealed how little the wealthiest pay.

Warren is also a longtime advocate for a wealth tax on those holding over $50 million.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren took a jab at Jeff Bezos after the world's richest man returned to Earth from his suborbital space trip with Blue Origin.

"Jeff Bezos forgot to thank all the hardworking Americans who actually paid taxes to keep this country running while he and Amazon paid nothing."

As Insider's Avery Hartmans previously reported, Warren told TMZ that Bezos was "laughing at every person in America who actually paid taxes.

Jeff Bezos's trip to outer space is being financed by all the rest of the US taxpayers who paid their taxes so that Jeff Bezos didn't have to.". »
