Hello Readers,
According to our constitution, President Donald Trump has control of the top officials at the Internal Revenue Service. Donald Trump sued the IRS for $10 billion due to the leakage of his tax returns. To settle, Trump agreed to drop the suit in exchange for the “Anti-Weaponization Fund” – $1.776 Billion to compensate allies of President Trump who believe that they had been unjustly investigated and prosecuted at the time of President Biden. Many were sued and convicted, but President Trump pardon them. Now the question arises if the convicted felons pardoned by Trump can claim money from these huge funds. Also, will they be controlled by Trump?
That’s not all, news came out that the Justice Department is looking to looking to permanently bar the IRS from releasing any more of Trump’s old tax returns. Will any of his money be spent in the upcoming election in an indirect way? By using taxpayer money, is this a political move by Trump and his allies to make sure that they win the upcoming general election and hold or boost the thin majority they have?
The powerhouses are making a deal to benefit their buddies. We should not allow the Republicans to spent taxpayer money like this. We must oppose this proposal. If this happens, then in the future our tax dollars will be set aside many times, and our money will benefit a few insiders but not us.
Trump has said numerous times that the 2020 election was rigged and non-immigrants and dead people were voting in the election. Obviously, a dead person cannot come to cast a ballot, but his/her identity could be used to cast a ballot. If his concerns are valid, I have a suggestion. If an undocumented person votes illegally, then the person should be given a chance to prove himself or herself for a week. And after one week, they should be deported to his/her country regardless of their family or children that are here.
Two teenage gunmen started shooting at the largest mosque at San Diego California. Also, there is a school next to the mosque. The guard was shot and finally, the shooters died due to self-inflicted wounds as the police reported. All faith-based religions should be protected. We all have a right to worship the way we want, and we should respect other religions as well.
Trump is not successful in the war with Iran. He went to China mainly to find out a way to get away from the war. However, his main concern for Iran not to have a nuclear weapon or capacity of manufacturing nuclear weapons is right. There is supposedly a deal where Iran has agreed to conditions, but it has not been confirmed as of the paper being put to bed.
Hopefully, Iran will agree, as their capacity for weapons and money is gone. The people are not happy with the government system they have. The world is suffering by the closing of the Strait of Hormuz. The US is in the war with Iran due to Israel and no one talks about Israel as part of the Iran War. Let’s hope that Iran and Trump both come to their senses and stop the war.
Have a wonderful week. I’ll talk to you next week.
