It’s #ElbowsUp in #Canada during the #TradeWar with the #UnitedStates that was foolishly started by #DonaldTheDeplorable and his #tariffs - aka #TrumpTaxes.

But when #Americans put their ‘elbows up’ 💪 to administer deodorant - perhaps as they prepare to ‘sweat out’ the *next* #TrumpRecession - they, too, can #BuyCanadian 🇨🇦 with Harry’s odor and sweat control sold at Kroger and elsewhere!

Harry’s Foaming Shave 🪒 Gel could also be handy if your finances are expected to take ‘a close shave’!

Harry’s extra-strength antiperspirant on Kroger shelves in Tennessee, with Redwood scent!

With #Project2025 not waiting for the January 20th inauguration of #AmericanCarnage2.0 to threaten a government #shutdown , @Wikipedia appears to also be anticipating the economic impact of the #TrumpTaxes - aka #tariffs - by including the 1828 “Nullification Crisis” in #SouthCarolina among its “On this day…” articles.

The crisis was caused by the “Tariff of Abominations” imposed by populist #POTUS Andrew Jackson. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tariff

Trump May Owe $100 Million From Double-Dip Tax Breaks, Audit Shows

A previously unknown focus of an IRS audit is a dubious accounting maneuver that effectively meant taking the same write-offs twice on a Chicago skyscraper, a NYT and ProPublic investigation

The I.R.S. believes that former President Donald J. Trump violated a law meant to prevent double-dipping on tax-reducing losses.

" #Republicans have been trying to knee-cap and punish the #IRS ever since #Obama took office... The ex-president has had armies of lawyers and accountants working against a severely understaffed and overwhelmed agency, but some valiant folks within it have kept the fire lit. If you are frustrated at the pace of the case’s resolution, imagine how these auditors and lawyers must feel."

Text from article: It would be tempting to shrug and dismiss this story as just one more Trump fraud upon the public. Instead of turning our outrage upon Trump where it belongs, many are quick to criticize the IRS for not moving faster, just as many have the Justice Department. Some of that criticism is fair and understandable, but I want readers to zoom out a bit. Consider this: Republicans have been trying to knee-cap and punish the IRS even since Obama took office. Somehow it has been able to continue its work, in near total secrecy, and achieve an internal memorandum ruling against Trump. The ex-president has had armies of lawyers and accountants working against a severely understaffed and overwhelmed agency, but some valiant folks within it have kept the fire lit. If you are frustrated at the pace of the case’s resolution, imagine how these auditors and lawyers must feel. To those civil servants I say this: We don’t know who you are or how many of you are on the case, but thank you for not letting this audit and this case simply disappear. For the history books, and in service of preventing similar travesties in the future, we will need a full accounting of all of Trump’s many deceptions and crimes. This one is vital one to document, and we hope you will keep holding his feet to the fire and eventually force him to pay.
