Well yeah, the illegals that SO many rich and/or just plain awful people take advantage of aren’t going to be paying their taxes (out of fear) as they were before, because the IRS is mow complicit with ICE, by handing over their info to them.
If only they had the same zeal in hunting after rich ppl
His previous tax cuts are still in place. They expire next year. One reason they expect less revenue is because IRS agents pay for themselves many times over by catching big corporations and wealthy people cheating on their taxes. They've fired a bunch of them.
I believe the Trump tariffs is a scheme to ultimately abolish income tax & replace it with nat'l sales tax paid by American business & passed on to consumers to pay another sales tax in their state. This would be biggest reduction in tax payment from the wealthy to increasing taxing the rest of us.
Why are we giving the criminals our tax dollars this is ludicrous we should have a separate fun set up for America because they're not going to do anything to help America they're going to put it in their own pockets
Finding fraud and waste was never the goal. Changing the government, deleting "their" obstacles, and eliminating the agencies and positions that keep them in check. History look upon this time as a civil war.
But mostly because certain undereducated people think they don't have to pay taxes. And so they will not fill out tax returns. Nor pay any taxes they owe. Especially true with 1099.
Part of the help for the rich to not pay. This until tax “help goes into law”
My taxes paid and ALWAYS have been ( business taxes bite hard but they get paid)

THE WORD TRILLION BEHIND IT & BECAUSE OF THE THE REST OF US HAVE TO SUFFER AND BE THROWN BACK 75 YRS IN TIME AGAIN. FUCKING INSANE. THIS MORONS DONT REALIZE THIS "RENAISSANCE" TIME THEY ALL CLAIM TO WANT BACK WAS DURING A TIME WHEN CORPORATIONS WERE FUCKING TAXED 91%. THEY JUST CANT COMPREHEND IT

IF YOU DO THE MATH THATS $20 TRILLION DOLLARS IN 8 YRS ADDED TO WHAT WAS ORIGINALLY $24 TRILLION WHEN HE ENTERED. HE ALONE WILL HAVE DOUBLED WHAT THEY CLAIMED WAS ALREADY A NATIONAL EMERGENCY WORTH OF DEBT. ITS AMAZING HOW STUPID HIS SUPPORTERS ARE. THEY CANT EVEN COUNT TO FUCKING 20 IF YOU PUT
Is any1 honestly surprised? I mean the dude added $8 TRILLION IN DEBT IM 4 FUCKING YRS TO WHAT WAS A $24 TRILLION DEBT ACROSS BASICALLY 75 YEARS, & ADDED $3 TRILLION TO THE ANNUAL DEFICIT BY THE TIME HE WAA DONE WHICH MEANS AN IMMEDIATE SECOND TERM WOULDVE ADDED AN ADDITIONAL $12 TRILLION WHICH 🪡1
That's what DOGE doesn't get, and never will. You don't necessarily save money by firing people or cutting costs. You often lose in the long run. That's the state of affairs in a nut.
Don’t destroy the VA, or social security, or Medicare, or Medicaid, or the IRS.
Instead, cut back so they’re less useful. Claim fraud and wasteful spending, but it’s all about taking things away.
And that $105 billion claim is as dubious as the structural cohesiveness of that malformed "truck" that's come unglued, sinks when waterproofed, and rusts out its "stainless" steel.
Elmo is a fucking idiot. He is the fraud, waste, and abuse he claims to find. If there was so much fraud and waste then again, why hasn’t anyone been charged?? He is just as terrible businessman, as Trump.
I paid my taxes today reluctantly, it makes me angry when someone on a fixed income somehow pays more than billionaires while they cut benefits for the elderly or tries to take away social security and Medicare etc and the elderly and children that will suffer, so I guess my taxes help pay for golf
Claims with no proof. Need forensic audit, not Musk exaggerations & lies. No one stopping or questioning his lies & hackers claims while he gets billions in government contracts & subsidies.
Failures in space launches.
Firing federal employees
Closing local offices
Making unfounded accusations.
The DOGE was only ever intended to increase the efficiency with which wealth was transferred to the billionaire class. There’s a race to become the first trillionaire and Musk is jockeying for first place
Again, we all knew this. We all knew that Republicans cut taxes for the wealthy and all the rest of us suffer. So we all voted to prevent a Republican from becoming POTUS... right? RIGHT?
Even worse when you consider the reduction in revenue was also a result of closing investigations into companies like Tesla. Who also just happens to have an accountant discrepancy of $1.4B, which also won't face penalties as Musk owns the SEC.
And that's not even including all of us peasants that are refusing to pay taxes and pay into an oligarchy system that doesn't do a fucking thing for them except TAKE AND PUNISH. No taxes for them, don't expect a fucking cent from me.
DOGE claims they found billions in fraud. With fraud you have a crime, with crime you have a criminal. I haven't seen one person arrested for fraud yet. Why?
Officials anticipate tax revenue to drop more than 10% by April 15 compared with last year. The loss of tax receipts is expected as more taxpayers don’t file taxes or attempt to avoid paying balances owed to the IRS. The amount of lost federal revenue could top $500 billion, the paper said.
I think we need a national town hall meeting and Musk/Trump & puppy dog JDV can show us the math behind DOGE claims and the expected short fall in Tax Revenue! Between the Stable Genius and the Tesla Twit this should be a walk in the park.
…So, when roads start falling apart, water mains breakdown, public transportation and city streets are dirtier, and so much more, you know it’s the idiots in red caps to blame 🤨
I keep saying this but it's not getting through. Taxes pay for nothing. The purpose of taxes is to stop inflation. Taxes should be paid by those who can most afford it. Once Nixon took us off the gold standard modern monetary theory kicked in. Please Google modern monetary theory. 1/2
2/2 whenever a politician asks the question how are we going to pay for it and suggests taxes as a means of payment. Either they are completely ignorant or lying to you. Taxes pay for nothing. When they're looking to cut spending and reduce taxes the end effect will be massive inflation.
Felon 47’s weaponization of the justice department against attorneys is a crisis worthy of SCOTUS intervention. He is trying to deny Americans from legal representation & intimidate attorneys so they won’t accept cases. All bar associations should come out strongly against this & petition Scotus.
Agree with your sentiment ~ though I do not follow the path of Catholicism, I have seen miracles come through the rosary ~ and other forms of sincere prayer to the Divine 🌹🌹🌹
The 500 billion that the IRS won't collect will come from tariffs that the American consumer will have to pay because of Trumps Dumbest Trade War In History continues..
Don't forget that Trump has talked about a flat rate 'sales tax' instead of an income based 'income tax'.....so that will have us paying even more than just the rise in costs because of tariffs.

Also. Immigrants, both documented and undocumented, pay taxes. They are shooting themselves in their foot with their policies but they don't care. This isn't about making America great, it's about making the rich even richer.
I think they weil & make a bunch for themselves. What'll they do then? Go to Russia? Their lives wont' be worth a dime here if everyone has 'nothing left to lose'. Is that a dangerous thing to say? It seems logical to me. Will the military protect them? Like pootie? Uprisings R everywhere right now
don’t want to file! But if I don’t they’ll probably double fine me.🤬 they will go after low to middle class earner who does not file. What we pay helps federal programs, but what is left to help, DOUCHE & GOP cut it all. FFS I will cave & file on 4/15. Doubt I‘ll ever see a refund check. 🤬🤬🤬😢😢😢😢
Less tax revenue because the wealthy, who do not depend on earned income that is reported to IRS, are emboldened to cheat on their taxes and get away with it because the IRS is now understaffed.
Right....but he never seems to take that into consideration either. So unless he is finding more than $8M/day in savings, he's putting us more in the red.
Why is it that corporations and these rich people that destroy our road with their trucks and heavy vehicle, pollute our air from their factories destroy our air from all the pollution but they’re the ones that don’t wanna pay any taxes go figure.
I'm surprised it took this long to come out. Firing all these employees and disrupting all these government business channels is going to have a massive negative impact on the economy.
The IRS tax hit is just the beginning.
Some unnamed "officials" told the media that they expect fewer people to pay their taxes on 4/15 because of Trump. This is ridiculous. This is political and not serious analysis.
undocumented migrants with work permits pay $3-4 BILLION in taxes every year - MAGA you can make up the difference when we deport them ok?
& they 'saved' $105B & the Venezualans they put in a brutal prison (that WE are paying for) were criminals & gangs - JUST SAYING SOMETHING DOES NOT MAKE IT TRUE
Billionaires avoid taxes with less IRS staff.
That’s 10% less revenue on their behalf.
GOP will make cuts but do we know where?
Obviously Social Security, Medicaid & Medicare.
Still not sure why any average working class people are gonna file taxes. Let Leon cover it. They are firing us left and right....soooo why should any of us pay taxes.?? Let Shitlers Amerikkka 🔥
Honestly, I worry that regardless of whether or not anyone files their taxes, DOGE is going to reach into our bank accounts and forcefully take money from us to pay for their own bullshit.
If republicuns are trying to destroy America so Americans will be forced to submit to fascism they're doing a damned good job.They could have tried to make America great but that was just a shitty slogan covering up their racism.
Again, we are not dealing with mental giants in this administration! The antics that we are seeing from trumps Platoon of Goons is like watching an old televised series of the "Keystone Cops" which refers to ineffectual and bumbling individuals. We can do a lot better, MAGA's love it! 🖕DJT😎
I mean, seriously, @yanisvaroufakis.bsky.social said in an interview I-don't-know-how-many-years-ago: "As a country, when you spend less, your income goes down"
But that's okay, right? It's okay because the billionaires won't have to pay a cent and those poor hard working boys who will likely never know what life is really like for Americans can be comfy knowing their billions are safe.
So no matter how many women and people of color they fire; no matter how much in money and benefits they steal from us, they are still going to run a deficit.
Doge hasn’t saved a penny!! They’ve destroyed things that people need and want and we will have to pay more to re-build when musk and trump finally fuck off one way or another!
It's time to flip the model.
Tax Cuts for Something is simple:
If corporations want tax relief, they must 1st deliver results.
Raise wages? Earn a tax cut.
Lower consumer costs? Earn a tax cut.
Solve a real public problem? Earn a decade of tax freedom—for the company and its employees.
I'm guessing that that estimate is without the tariffs coming April 2nd. In fact, that is probably the best explanation for the new tariffs coming April 2nd: it is to make up for the failures of DOGE.

When people don’t work, they don’t pay taxes, and the economy is not good!
It’s really that simple! WE, THE WORKING CLASS, MAKE OUR ECONOMY AND COUNTRY STRONG!
So, why do Rs hate us so much? WE MAKE THEM MONEY!

That's not how it works. That's not how any of this works!
Maybe the billionaires don’t need a tax cut already
They should go back to their most favorite island status set up
