But we still can't see Trump's tax records? If they really want to expose criminals, maybe stop picking on working immigrants and go after some bigger fish.
Real smart announcing this. Now immigrants might just choose not to pay taxes. Many Americans have been considering the same thing since the IRS will now be overloaded due to recent firings. It's not a good idea to overwork the accountants as they might run off with the money.
Every person who attended the previous rally should commit to bringing at least 5 new people to April 19. 3.5% of the population is needed for a peaceful regime change.
That’s awesome! Once people learn you have a good sized group, more people will join! There is safety and strength in numbers! Figure out good local places to publicize this next protest on April 19.
And let it be known these will be consistent. The bigger they are, the more impactful they will be!
Wonder if this breaches any privacy rules related to the tax code.
Also this will deter non legal migrants from filing taxes leading to less revenue for public services...taxes they pay contributes billions in income that funds many services they don't qualify to use
These dummies really don’t understand how they’re discouraging payment of taxes with this, right?
They also don’t understand how they shot down their own “undocumented immigrants don’t pay taxes” line. If they didn’t, how would the IRS have their returns?
My brother is a red hat, and he thinks the Statue of Liberty is Lucifer. When I told him it was a gift from France, he asked where I heard that. I said, I read. He said no one was alive from that time, so how do I know it’s true. THIS IS HOW TRUMPERS THINK.
Do you think they wouldn't dig into a legal citizen's record who are under criminal investigation? Getting rid of criminals is a good thing. Gathering evidence is part of due process
This is not 'due process' this is being used for rounding people up. It was illegal before for a reason, let the government use the irs for this, and illegals will stop paying taxes all together.
"Under the agreement, ICE officers can ask the IRS for information about immigrants who have final orders of removal or are under criminal investigation." So what? The article states that they CAN ask and of people under final orders or removal or criminal investigation.
One thing this administration has proved unequivocally is how great it is at destroying revenue. They’ll have the country bankrupted in no time! That’s the plan, right? Right??
Well how much free money was that we just lost from the budget? The insane cruelty being done for incarceration profiteers right now shames American history. WE THE PEOPLE know that slavery has never been okay, in any form.
I didn't "show up" to vote because I am homeless living in the woods... Outcasted by my MAGA family... You're good at looking up public records but your assumptions are pure shit... Typical...
WTF is happening in this country???? Every single day it gets worse and worse. The capitulation is F*cking incredible! Every organization and person who capitulates to the felon, is agreeing to being ruled by a dictator.
*immigration officials use relevant documents to find illegal immigrants* "ThE cOunTry iS FalLinG aPArt!!!" If you're a legal citizen you'll be alright.
It's breathtaking how quickly the right to privacy seems to have disintegrated with everyone who did nothing but SCREAM about it for decades.
I guess when it's YOUR privacy it matters, but other people's not so much??
Guess what, though? They're uploading all of YOUR info as well.
So, out of the pool of illegal immigrants in the country, we'll focus on the ones with jobs who pay taxes and contribute to Social Security without being able to withdraw from it?
Gotcha.
The rationale of it being about ridding ourselves of criminals makes perfect sense. /s
Keep in mind the biggest hypocrisy of the whole thing. If we really want to stop illegal immigration, then we should be arresting and slapping very large fines on the BUSINESS OWNERS who employee undoc immigrants.
Right?! This FLOORS me. MAGA's fave claim is that immigrants don't pay taxes and that they "steal" our social security. And ofc they're all criminals.🙄 So now 🍊💩's IRS is gonna use law abiding immigrant's TAX RECORDS, to surveil them and deport them.You can't make up this level of INSANITY. 🙄🤦
Will Dear Supreme Leader ever show his taxes?!? Someone should write about that (once again) so ppl don’t forget. And also his health records would be nice.
All the farmers and building contractors as well as housecleaning and service industries will now be converted to a cash only economy. No more checks, no more addresses, no more last names. No SSN either.
That's not a deal. It's an invasion of privacy. It's time of woe for immigrants, undocumented as well as legal. Tax information is open to the public. Then why the hay isn't Trump's tax information open to the public as well. ???
Dear IRS,
I am officially asking that you share Donald Trump's tax information with me. I just want to see if I'm paying more in taxes than him! I won't share any information.
I have zero confidence that only the tax information of “immigrants without legal status” will be used, or that its use will be limited to the stated purpose.
They pay taxes but get none of the benefits ! He's has to find more immigrants to deport since he can't find the gang members he said were running around our country.
MAYBE NOT:

I am terrified this signals the Gestapo will soon begin (illegally) using FAFSA data to determine immigration status and deport young people who are just striving to better themselves with a higher education.
Let's share IRS billionaire information with the American public, also making a major change in how tax records can be used. Don't tell me that's illegal! Once half the criminal code is tossed for the rich and corrupt, there can't be a prohibition on revealing the motives of our insurrectionists!
If they are paying tax they are documented and should be assisted in fully migrating into the country. Something tells me this yet another way to target those with "technical" citizenship, like green cards, workers visas, student visas etc.
They are paying taxes because they are receiving a paycheck. Their employer isn’t required to verify legal status, only if they have “docs”. Most don’t have legit “docs” since no verification required.
Well reagan used it but it was from a sermon by Puritan leader John Winthrop in 1630, symbolizing America as a model of hope and exceptionalism for the world. But… only by way of the world adopting their fucked up beliefs. It was always a Christian Nationalist fantasy
The shining city on the hill ideal is clad in white Christian nationalism. They're putting the rhetoric into action. This has been a fascist fever dream for almost 50 yrs. The Great Resegregation is afoot.
And Vote Hell No for Destination Resorts for Texas. We are already a huge shithole and will be until we turn it Blue!!
The ad is offensive “just let it happen!” FO!
Right! This is so off the charts STUPID on so many levels. Not to mention didn't this admin run their campaign on claiming immigrants are stealing social security benefits while not paying taxes??! Is this their admission they lied? What a complete and utter clusterfuck 🙄🤡🤦
Don’t cooperate with fascists. ICE is basically an organization that terrorizes American citizens and people here legally without a real purpose other than terror. They could very easily degrade into a thug enforcement wing for the fascist right. Gut them, and certainly do not acquiesce in advance.
This is absolutely horrible, a terrible breach of trust, and completely illogical. Instead of going after criminals (as they said during the campaign but most of us didn’t believe) they’re going to focus on deporting people who work and pay taxes here.
I understand the impulse, but in the end it only hurts us more and gives them the opportunity to dismantle more of the things we need. As long as Medicaid and schools are running, it’s our moral obligation to help…unless we can find a way to independently insure and educate.
How about sharing Shitler’s returns? F*cking criminal. If Biden or Obama refused to release their tax returns, there would have been hell to pay. An absolute disgrace what this felon gets away with.
...thisbis the same organization that sealed trump's tax documents and refused to release them for Americans to make a decision before voting in the elections.
Some of my family came here undocumented, uninvited, unprepared
Fortunately for us, the people welcomed us, spoke to us in OUR language
Helped us buy land and get work
Great. This will allow the Orange-utan to focus on people who are working and paying taxes, while ignoring those who are either not working or not paying taxes. Pulls labor from a low-unemployment economy and revenue from the government.

You know, the real tax cheats.

This is essentially negating the 5th amendment right against self-incrimination.
They receive free accommodation in 5 star hotels.
Where did you hear that?
Fucking hypocrisy everywhere.
Move if you can.
And don’t be a snitch.
Snitches get stitches!
Getting rid of “criminals” isn’t their true goal.
Everyday is such a shitshow of evil, cruel stupidity from MAGA & its supporters.
Chipping away little by little while the dems do what exactly...
Dedicated to Not Pete, Not from Ohio... another troll account...

Most humans can't see past their emotionally childish narratives to recognize the reality is imminent extinction.

Gotcha.

But certain high profile people DO NOT???
Claro! #MasPutos

Much more of this terrible reporting and I'll stop my subscription to KUNC and CPR.

Way of truly lost the mandate of being the shining city on the hill
Personaly I was actually directly referencing the Bible
I want to say Matthew but I'm also too lazy to Google
I can't take much more honestly. This is atrocious.
Poor people won't survive it and rich people can't handle losing anything
And Vote Hell No for Destination Resorts for Texas. We are already a huge shithole and will be until we turn it Blue!!

Consider our pennies make their billions
They can own everything but if we lose our jobs and can't afford the products they lose their income as well
They need us. we don't actually need them
Google it, he actually is the original version
Narya Capital has invested into it heavily. AKA Vance and his master, Thiel.
See also, Rise of the Rest Seed fund, another $12 mil courtesy of the VP.
Also notable are the Walmart heirs contributions (the Waltons are the richest family in the world as of Dec.2024).
Then we just break our promise. Like a liar. Like a bunch of shitbags. Like people never to be trusted.
I have that right?
They don’t have the staff to chances you all down now
Trump fired most of them, think they care about your little return?
Stop paying taxes, we are well past Liberation Day, so we are allowed to pay only the taxes we feel like now :)
And me
Some of my family came here undocumented, uninvited, unprepared
Fortunately for us, the people welcomed us, spoke to us in OUR language
Helped us buy land and get work
It saddens me how things have changed since 1620
Well done!
Immigrants without legal status paying taxes,while HumptyTrumpty and the first lady Squealon rip you off left,right and centre.
