Show me a man and I will show you a tax code violation.

Somebody like Lois Lerner will be their general.

At the county level, the new and barely trained armed IRS agents will get a list of conservative Republican business owners who are political donors.

Their orders will be to find something, anything, from a prepared list of tips, to shut them down, to ruin them financially, to arrest them, to jail them, to destroy them.

"Proving the case" will not matter, it will just be pure Lawfare, to bankrupt the victims.

Anybody who doesn't see the bitter reality of this IRS expansion at this point in American history is a Pollyanna living in LaLaLand.

Using the tax code to “show me the man and I’ll show you the crime” is dead simple since no two accountants can actually agree on what it says. How often do you hear “ the irs is interpreting …”

So what am I to believe? Multiple cases in history or these mealy-mouth promises and platitudes? The ‘D’onkey Party’s sainted FDR used the IRS all of the way back in the 1930s! Since then it has been LBJ and BHO, all with NO PUNISHMENT!

Six months from now there’ll be new definitions for “tax evaders” and “honest”. Add to the list along with “recession”, “vaccine”, etc.

Let me take a shot at unpacking this. Someone who is following the law, but “not paying his ‘fair’ share” is breaking the “law.” I used the word law in the same sentence twice, but it has two different meanings given the bias of the person interpreting whether you are paying “your fair share.”

Also, the reason the IRS targets the middle class is the middle class can’t afford the specialized legal and accounting services necessary to find the exceptions which are nearly infinite. Therefore, the return on investment of IRS time is much greater on the middle class than on the wealthy.

I had an audit after I took a twenty-thousand-dollar deduction for legal services. At stake was whether the lawsuit was about theft or conversion. For one, I could take the deduction, but for the other I couldn’t. Since I knew this would happen, I had the accountant and lawyer write a letter for my files explaining why it was the one and not the other. (Due to the narrow difference any reasonable person could claim the opposite.) The kicker was, I kept the audit open for an entire year, thus ruining the agent’s closure stats. Finally, he let me go with my interpretation. Did I pay “my fair share?” Well, not according to liberals. I can tell you the agent was fuming.

The fact that they have to SAY this, is proof enough that there is EVIL afoot.

A tax evader is defined as anyone who uses a long form to report their taxes.

Considering the way they have treated honest, tax paying citizens in the past, they are lying through their teeth.

We are guilty until we prove ourselves innocent in their eyes and they know it and we know it.

Everything the left has to say is a lie. Presume the opposite when they feign innocence or good will.

Sounds familiar. They’re clearly following the FBI playbook.

Did you find some change that someone left behind in a coin return?
The new auditors will make sure you pay up, deadbeat.

Gonna make Al Sharpton pay up that $4 million? What about Jesse Jackson? Hunter Biden? Yeah, didn’t think so. They’re coming after the middle class, fully armed.

“So what’s all the ammo for?”

For when they audit the Crypts, Bloods, La Raza, and MS13 to make them pay their fair share. lol

For such reasons the Founders intended for Fed.gov to be funded by tariffs- which is where DJT was taking us.

The target isn’t going to be the superrich. It’s going to be the ordinary rich, car dealers and other independent businesspeople who might give money to the opposition. Obviously the billionaires who gave to the Democrats didn’t vote to put themselves in handcuffs.

Tax avoidance (deductions) is not illegal, they can try to deny but if you stay under the radar, you’ll be fine. Tax evasion is what you go to jail for.
