Elon Musk Drops IRS Bombshell

The Vigilant Fox 10/25/2024

This could really happen if Trump wins.

The world’s richest man just accomplished what Kamala Harris never could—receive unscripted questions from everyday Americans and answer them directly and clearly.

One of the standout moments of tonight's telephone town hall occurred when Elon Musk responded to claims that Trump resembles Hitler.

Musk brilliantly answered, “Trump was president for four years. I don’t recall any genocide. In fact, we didn’t even have any wars. He was good at avoiding war.”

He added that the Democrats know they are pushing clearly false claims, but they've decided to do it anyway.

-----

The bombshell of the night dropped when a caller named Donna nervously asked Musk if Trump could possibly fire Biden’s additional 87,000 IRS agents through the Inflation Reduction Act and replace them with ICE agents instead.

Elon gloriously answered YES!

He responded, “I think our priorities are clearly misplaced here, where hiring vast numbers of people to audit and chase after Americans for taxes while failing to hire critical personnel to secure our border makes no sense at all. It’s totally backwards. So I agree with you.”

In his closing thoughts, Musk urged Americans to “vote like your life depends on it” because “it does.”

“I’ve never said that before about any election,” Musk added. “I’m saying it about this one because I’m sure it is true. So this is a fork in the road of destiny, and we need to take the right path.”

Is it either/or?  Conservatives can be rather childish in this respect.  Anyone who has dealt with the IRS lately knows they need the additional staff just to enforce the current law, replace their ancient technology, and communicate with taxpayers.  It need not be a corrupt bureaucracy - that part depends on who is staffing upper management.  And I’ve got news for you … if Trump is president, the government is going to need all of the funding it can get.

And I've got news for you; We will never again be a truly FREE people for so long as we continue to abide the Marxist income tax and the IRS.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Here's some of that current law:

New this year:  A sole proprietor with an LLC now has to register it with FINCEN. Well, that will take a lot of pistol packing agents to eyeball every one-horse LLC out there. The onus really falls on the littlest guys. Supposedly this is to help eliminate money laundering, because everyone knows that's where that is going through, not the bigger networks of LLCs owned by, say, one family. If you don't register with them by the end of the year (even if you dissolved it this year), they'll come after you with prosecution on their mind.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
