    Whatever; the IRS website is hot garbage. It’s a major PITA to navigate; I was never even able to successfully verify my identity to be able to use it.

    Nothing of value was lost.

    “You’ve heard of Direct File, that’s gone,” Long said. “Big beautiful Billy wiped that out. I don’t care about Direct File. I care about direct audit.”

    Jesus i thought he was calling himself “big beautiful Billy” in the 3rd person the way they used their capitulation in that quote lol

      The open-source repository relies on internal APIs at the IRS. It’s not really meant to be run by your average John Doe.

    We’re at the point in wealth concentration where you can just look at someone and tell when they think poor people should be slaves. He looks like the Monopoly Man.

    At this point GOOD. If all of the voters who benefitted from this had:

    1. Shown up, AND
    2. Voted correctly

    The rest of us wouldn’t be stuck with this. Let ‘em learn the hard way.

      It’s too bad the motherfuckers that wanted this shit and the people that sat at home or did a protest vote because the Democrats didn’t give them a pretty, pretty pony were the only ones that had to live with their stupid and selfish choices.

      You fail to understand how many people didn’t get a vote out because of voter suppression tactics like voter ID laws, making voting only available in person, limiting stop box locations, limiting voting dates, arresting people for handing out water in long voting lines, etc.

      By making voting harder, Republicunts win.
      Making it easier lets Democrats and progressives win.

      Making it harder also lends credence to the “my vote doesn’t count anyway” mentality.

        I live in Kansas. My vote doesn’t count, yet I still got my ass out and did it anyways. I’m done helping those who won’t help themselves.

        We can either continue to slowly tug at the band-aid for the next 10-20 years or rip it off now and be done with it. I choose the latter.

      Crabs in a pot man, crabs in a pot.

      “Boo hoo I didn’t get what I want so now I want everyone else to suffer too”. That kind of bitterness is a shitty, toxic trait. Acting like that makes it really easy to split the Left because I know I sure as hell don’t want to agree with anything you say.

          It’s spelled “kumbaya” dumbass.

          And what are you doing other than alienating everyone you talk to? You’d do a better job advocating for the other side tbh. Most people will see your shittiness and switch sides just to not be associated with you. Have you considered becoming Republican? You might single handedly destroy the party with your toxicity.

          But let’s hear it tough guy. What are you doing besides ranting on social media? Imma go out on a limb and guess from your user name that you were an edgy teenager and now you’re a burnt out 30 something? Sad that your life choices didn’t work out so well and now you’re bitter and take it out on others?

          You’re a pussy who thinks he’s tough behind a keyboard but you’re just a bitch.

            At this point I don’t care if pussy boy “liberals” like yourself are turned off. I’m betting you jumped on that whole “they go low, we go high” bullshit that landed us here. I’ve advocated fight fire with fire for YEARS, but fucking morons like you were too FUCKING STUPID to see this coming and are STILL miles behind the 8-ball on how to fix this. So go circle jerk your other keyboard warrior friends and FUCK OFF until you’re ready to do something that ACTUALLY helps as opposed to your little participation marches that aren’t doing shit.

            Oh and keep telling your fucking idiot friends who stayed home that it’s not their fault and everything will be just fine. Because you’re clearly right on that.

    Fuck. I used it for the first time last year and it was incredibly easy. Now I have to go back to being charged by TurboTax for something that should be automatic and free.

      The words came from the dick. It’s just that technically the words did come out of his mouth.
