This is incredible. It is not for me but I do hope that everyone who could benefit from Elie's words, and especially his bravery, takes the time to read this.
A white man killed another white man, but Black people are catching death threats.
So, instead of talking about white feelings again, I explored my own death threats, and tips for others who are unused to white America.

Good news everyone! My antifa membership paperwork came back and looks like I've been approved! Does anyone know how to set my Soros checks up for direct deposit?

Fare Thee Well, Billy. At least you lasted a few Scaramucci's. But nobody upstages the big guy, and your tributes simply didn't live up to his expectation. You will have lots of time to think about how much more criming you could and should have done as Ambassador.

If I was in charge of the effort to rebalance the extreme wealth inequality in this country, this is where I would start.
Allowing wealth to accumulate from one generation to another is a recipe for unacceptable inequalities.
We should abolish large estates and other forms of inherited wealth.

I think anytime a client asks when their return will be ready I'm going to start saying "within the next two weeks" and if they ask if they owe or are getting a refund I'm just going to say "bigly"

I am absolutely disgusted and horrified by my Country's assistance with Israel's aggressions towards Iran. We are the bad guys. History will not be kind.

Hey #TaxSky Someone tell Scott Bessent to go read TC Memo 2025-52 and that he owes the IRS some bucks for taking that ridiculous position. Maybe we can wake up Billy Long and have him go collect the funds from Scott directly.

TaxSky: You guys see Notice 2025-23 where the IRS announced they are going to remove Reg 1.6011-18, which was created to crack down on basis shifting abuses with partnerships? I couldn't think of a more perfect illustration of this golden age of tax fraud than this decision.

TaxSky worth a read. When you're done filing returns, that is.
I said before that it would be illegal for IRS to turn over tax data on undocumented workers to ICE. Here's why.
In general, it is a federal crime for a federal employee to disclose tax return information. www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/...
The possible exception here is 26 USC 6103(i)(2).
