Such nonsense. No taxpayer has to use the IRS filing option. People are free to file on their own or pay for a preparer or use a free option like VITA Bottom line is for millions of Americans this option of efiling w IRS will save money, time and hassle.
Rep. Jason Smith@RepJasonSmith

The IRS is bullying Americans into accepting them as the tax preparer, filer, and auditor. The entire forced e-file scheme lacks support from taxpayers, who were misled to believe it would be a one-stop shop for federal and state taxes & undersold its costs.

Another idiotic move. Why would anyone who is not in the business of doing tax returns oppose people getting a pre-populated return. Could be at least 75% of Americans. In civilized countries you can file your taxes by text message!

Elon Musk is now bragging about getting rid of the team that put together the 'Direct File' tax filing system, which allows citizens to easily file their taxes for free. Direct File is a big target of the for-profit tax prep industry including corporations like Intuit and H&R Block.

I’ve seen a lot of silly analysis regarding the no tax on tips proposal, but everyone is missing the big point. The IRS spends millions going after tipped employees for mis-reporting or potential underreporting. Last administration there was a whole new task force targeting these lower income workers. By eliminating the tax altogether we can also eliminate this whole division of the IRS. That pays for any lost revenue.

This passage from Michelle Obama: "I hope you'll forgive me if I'm a little frustrated that some of us are choosing to ignore Donald Trump's gross incompetence while asking Kamala to dazzle us at every turn. I hope that you'll forgive me if I'm a little angry that we are indifferent to his erratic behavior. His obvious mental decline. His history as a convicted felon. A known slumlord. A predator found liable for sexual abuse. All of this while we pick apart Kamala's answers from interviews that he doesn't even have the courage to do, y'all."

IRS enforcement is changing with artificial intelligence. To avoid discrimination and bias in tax administration, observers say transparency and oversight is crucial, especially when it comes to the data used in AI models. From @ChandraSWallace and me: bit.ly/4eUvmSS

This inability to hold Hamas accountable basically posits that any attack on Israel, including massacring 1,000 civilians, is acceptable because the "conflict" began a long time ago and any "resistance" to "occupation" is acceptable.

Rachel Goldberg-Polin: "Ok sweet boy, go now on your journey. I hope it's as good as the trips you dreamed about because finally, my sweet boy, finally, finally, finally, finally you are free. I will love you and I will miss you every single day for the rest of my life, but you're right here. I know you're right here. I just have to teach myself how to feel you in a different way. And Hersh there is one last thing I need you to do for us. Now I need you to help us stay strong and I need you to help us survive"
