@twitloyalist if taxes were voluntary would you pay them? If you don't have a choice, you are forced.
Last year we had to send a check for 84k and change when we filed. Our bookkeeper transposed the last 2 digits and shorted the check by 40 bucks. In a year where out total tax bill was close ro 200k and after many audits where nothing was found, we received a notice of an intent to lien our property over 40 bucks. And the auditors always treat us as criminals.

@twitloyalist stop paying taxes for a few years and see what happens. How is that not force?

@Phil This spring I will finish paying off a big tax bill, upwards of 30G. Not once during the process was I treated disrespectfully nor did anyone approach me to use force. People who don't pay taxes should face penalties or no one would. Without some tax revenue, who would pay Elon for arming Teslas. I have not heard what you would want the IRS to do instead.

@twitloyalist
Read the law on which unsaid is based. It is supposed to aid in economic development. Condoms are not development. And taking money by threat of force from Americans and using it to do such bullshit is vile, Immoral, and inexcusable. Anybody who supports such thing is scum who deserve to die a horrible death

@Phil Who threatened me with force? You can not see a scenario where health care contributes to economic growth?

@Phil Congress allocated money for an agency to a task. Congress chose not to specifically determine what is to be done with the money, they have the power to do that. Congress knows what the agency's do with the money they are given. There is nothing illegal about buying condoms for anyone. Can you tell me what law condom purchases violate?
The Felon Pope :popephil:
@twitloyalist and your assertion is patently false. Congress allocated the money based on the foreign assistance act. This act requires that grants meet certain conditions. Much of the spending DOES NOT meet those conditions and is thus illegal.
Are you dumb enough to believe that congress allocated 50m dollars to buy condoms for some 3rd world country?
Happy Jack Frost
@Phil He stopped all federals grants and loans. If congress allocated the money then its spending is not illegal.
The Felon Pope :popephil:
So far he has not refused to spend a single penny of the money appropriated by congress. he is just stopping illegal spending of that money. It is his duty to make sure it is spent correctly and that the scum that infest government are not using it according to their own agenda.
Happy Jack Frost
@Phil All the money to 47 refuses to spend, that was appropriated by congress, and that is all ok with you but, this thing in particular 47 should not refuse? Seems to to me, it is stupid and would otherwise be refused by 47, but it is his pal Elon. Big govt waste.
The Felon Pope :popephil:
@twitloyalist Seems dumb to me, but It was appropriated by Congress and signed by Biden, so of course it's dumb.

@Phil State Department, under Rubio’s watch, is set to fork over $400 million for “armored” Teslas. Is this the way you were hoping things would go? What is your creative justifcation for this no bid money?

@twitloyalist
Just so, of course at present, the conspiracy theory people are turning out to be more correct then their detractors, who are being shown to just be credulous and easy marks.
The Felon Pope :popephil:
Well I wouldn't go that far, but it does make the point, that just trying to dismiss something as a consparacy theroy without addressing is a tactic of fools.
Happy Jack Frost
@Phil Along with adopting a conspiracy theory as fact without addressing is the tactic of fools and political manipulators.
Happy Jack Frost
@Phil Conclusive proof that all conspiracy theories are actually fact. Categorically applies to all of them.
