Paraguay Ousts Its President As His Daughter's "Tax The Poor" Shirt Goes Viral Paraguay's Senate voted unanimously on Friday to remove President Santiago Peña over the collapse of Ueno Bank, a day after a photo of his 20-year-old daughter in a "Tax the Poor" T-shirt spread across X.

Paraguayan President Santiago Pena announces his resignation following the collapse of a prominent digital lender to which he had former business links, putting him under intense pressure as nearly half the population was left without access to their bank accounts, in this screen grab taken from a video posted on social media.
