The heritage foundation is bypassing sanctions so they can gay Russian money. Those conservatives in the think tank think they have some sort God plan. Hell no. The reality is God’s gonna kick their ass for being such contemptible hypocrites. They really oughta break the bindings on their Bible, cause obviously they know shit about the good book. Anyways look up the parable about camels and needles.
Also god hates to see people that think they are on the same wavelength as God.
I am not a Bible thumper but I have read the bible and all that did was fill me with questions. As far as religion goes, I’m a none
August 11: Treasury permanently eliminates beneficial-ownership reporting and begins deleting existing records. The same week the Heritage/MCC/Russian-oil-linked dividend trail comes into focus in public reporting.
Rubio co-sponsored the original legislation. He now runs the State Department while Treasury deletes the database his legislation created.
The Corporate Transparency Act is still law. Congress can reinstate reporting. A future Treasury can repeal the exemption through rulemaking. But deleted records don't come back.
EIN: 23-7327730. FinCEN whistleblower link is in the piece. So is the FBI tip line.
So....the disclosure requirement "may come back" in future who knows,...... but the deleted records will be gone! A perfect mafia operation......"the fire in the records room"!
it has been shown this lawless and amoral group of people following the orange ogre are all part of a mob operation. looks like it, acts like it...etc., you get my meaning. Yes, I too worry about where it all goes, and this means we must all participate in holding honest and verifiable information and knowledge and publications like this do it every day, and somtimes hourly. Thank you GE!
Deleting the records is amazingly childish and, of course, arrogant. A fundamental tenet of good management is keeping records, even those that one intends to no longer need. Trumpism knows that it is a minority movement, and so seeks to hold power by removing a future administration’s ability to restore prior systems.
They just can’t stop themselves can they? Well, I choose to see their efforts as gifts to our democracy because they are finding all weaknesses and demonstrating exactly where they are and what we need to fix it permanently. I understand the damage this will cause but I believe we can shut down any company operating in our country who doesn’t have the required records on file. Meanwhile maybe there is room for new laws that prohibit all this fuckery completely 🤷♀️ perhaps we need it to be simplified and eliminate all the extra players by law and create a structure that is more straightforward and doesn’t allow all these entanglements 💁♀️ just add it to the list…
this is an aside, but....that's the precise reason why the AI boom is NOT being even roiled "a teeny bit" from the Hormuz games! It's the many Gulf/Norwegian SWFs who are doing the deals: the higher oil goes, the more is available for the Altmans and Musks, Nadellas, Amodeis, and Huangs of this world (the AI sector). IN fact the war could be said to be HELPING THEM. Instead of investing in Treasuries (the petrodollar recycling of old engineered by Uncle Sam) they now invest in AI....(think back to the early pre-war era under Orange 1.0 all those pictures of MBS offering massive ginormous "investments" at photo ops...for AI....the layperson was left wondering how a gulf country saw ANY practicable interest/use in this industry.....(other than bitcoin mining which at the time had not been debunked yet like today).
Not following your trail precisely, but the foeogn money treachery has been in plain sight during the Traitor administrations in those meetings and announcements, that I get — thanks, b.rad
1) the richest 1% of US taxpayers capture 29% of gains from tax breaks.
2) foreigners capture 40%!
Your points are well taken and imbibed. And i have kept a copy of those two pictures. Our entire Reaganite "Laugher Curve" (sic) supply side trickle down talking points ossified without edit since 1980s, are literally spat upon just by those 2 graphs ! How absurd is our national dialogue! Dystopia. And....these are supposed to be "conservatives". LOL. Pedigreed in money so to speak. Sick.
While I'm at it: Here's some insightful background (critical thinking does NOT make it through our National Dialog) about the BIRTH of LAFFER (LAUGHER) THEORY: (Direct quote, you cunningly won't find this page in the online google books search for this quote BTW...{T.I.M.}:
"So in Chicago, Reagan introduced a new set of numbers, which he promised had been vetted by "any number of distinguished economists and businessmen," including George Shultz, William Simon, Alan Greenspan, and Gerald Ford's budget director. The New York Times praised Reagan for having "emerged from Wonderland." A critic later pointed out that these new numbers projected an ability to raise more tax revenue than the old numbers only because they were premised on a still-astronomical 8.7 percent inflation rate through 1985 but were part of a plan that simultaneously promised to lower inflation. "In other words, a policy that promised to balance the budget in order to reduce inflation was going to attain budget balance by assuming the very inflation that balance was supposed to eliminate . The governor was stlll in Wonderland. Only now he was willingly joined there by some of the most distinguished mainstream economic figures in the Republican Party"

The deletion timing is the argument.

They are stupid even to try
Just further exemplifies another reason why The Heritage Foundation needs to be eradicated!
And or get rid of their 503c no profit status.
Or why we should really be familiar with every single author
Here is a summary map of financial interest from ITEP. 40% of US corporations are foreign owned. And they just got a big tax break.

yes... i see it. Two salient points:
1) the richest 1% of US taxpayers capture 29% of gains from tax breaks.
2) foreigners capture 40%!

Are we going to be turned into the United States of Criminal Impunity???
Already there.
I AM RESTACKING...
MORE THAN ONCE..
ALL THIS information that America AND Americans NEED to KNOW!!
Thank you SO VERY MUCH, W. A. Lawrence for ALL your Time And Research!!
That explains the shift in The Heritage Foundation from normie Reagan Conservatism to hard right ethnonationalism.
They were ALWAYS about hard right ethnonationalism; they just sugarcoated their Opus Diaboli nationalism till they thought they had a foothold.
Wow, great article and important information. Thank you so much, Wendy!
W. Every day I read and I can feel my blood pressure rise. This is just more criminal activity to hide crimes.
And the Dems want an investigation about trump switching planes.???
Come on for f@@@ sake!
Will we ever get back to law and order and accountability.
Save copies of all data that is to be destroyed.
Seniors who helped build this country want justice now, before our big dirt nap! Come ONNNNNNN!
