IRS Won't Issue Refunds During Shutdown: That Could Be A Problem

While most Americans thought they wouldn't be affected by the partial government shutdown, anyone with a federal tax refund coming to them will have to wait until the stalemate is over, according to the Wall Street Journal.

As one of the agencies which now lacks funding, the IRS and the US tax collector are operating with roughly 1/8 of their usual staff under a shutdown plan it's operating under outside the tax-filing season.

During a shutdown, the IRS can continue activities that protect government property, and the agency may bring in more workers soon to prepare for the income-tax filing season. Even during a shutdown, the agency still processes some tax returns that include payments, keeps computer systems running and continues criminal investigations. But the IRS generally doesn’t conduct audits, respond to taxpayer questions outside the filing season or—brace yourself—pay refunds.

A shutdown that gets resolved within a few weeks would have little ultimate effect on taxpayers, but lawmakers have made little or no movement toward a deal. That stalemate raises the prospect of an unprecedented extended closure during the individual income-tax filing season, which typically starts in mid-to-late January. The IRS hasn’t announced a start date yet for the 2019 filing season, the first under the tax law that Congress passed in 2017. -WSJ

"We’re in uncharted territory as each day gets longer," said Mark Steber, chief tax officer at Jackson Hewitt Tax Service Inc.

This means that early filers won't receive their expected refunds - which may put pressure on President Trump and congress to hammer out a deal. President Trump says he won't sign any legislation that doesn't include $5 billion for his border wall, while Congressional Democrats say that's not happening.

If last year's tax refund figures are any indication, there are potentially hundreds of billions of dollars on the line for more than 55 percent of US households.

By Feb. 2, 2018, the IRS had paid $12.6 billion in refunds to more than six million households. By Feb. 16, the IRS had paid $101.2 billion to nearly 32 million households. And by March 30, the IRS had paid $212 billion to 73 million households.

For many Americans, the tax refund is the single largest financial event of the year, and the people who tend to file early in the season are taxpayers who count on large refunds to pay down debt, catch up on bills or make major purchases. Those are disproportionately low-income households that benefit from the earned-income tax credit and other provisions that give them no income-tax liability or a net benefit from the income-tax system. -WSJ

The NWO is about recreating the Khazar empire

"The curtain is now being pulled back to fully expose the Khazarian Mafia and its evil plan to infiltrate, tyrannize the whole World and eradicate all Abrahamic Religions and allow only their Babylonian Talmudism also known as Luciferianism, Satanism or ancient Baal worship."

"The history of the Khazarians, specifically the Khazarian Mafia (KM), the World’s largest Organized Crime Syndicate that the Khazarian oligarchy morphed into by their deployment of Babylonian Money-Magick, has been nearly completely excised from the history books."

https://geopolitics.co/2015/03/11/hidden-history-of-the-incredibly-evil-khazarian-mafia/

History tells us Russia took care of the Khazar empire some 1150 years or so ago. NO WONDER THEY HATE RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA.

This why they ran the Bolshevik revolution and slaughtered an estimated 20 million Russian's and implemented the brutal Communist regime. They used this to extend into China and create similar atrocities there.

We know the Cabal infiltrated money systems WW and have controlled government for hundreds of years. They hide behind a countries citizens and religious groups as to be able to deflect from exposure and cry foul when they are targeted or called out.

NWO capital Astana is in Kazakhstan which if you look at the map, image, is within the former Khazar Empire, coincidence?

https://themarshallreport.wordpress.com/2015/11/23/nwo-capital-of-the-world-its-real-folks/

The cabal puppets in the EU, US, Israel and Saudi Arabia used NATO to install a puppet government in Ukraine. Ukraine is also in the former Khazar Empire.

How Saudi Arabia fits in:

They needed to control the resources so the UK which has been under the control of the cabal for hundreds of years just like the EU created Saudi Arabia to control oil. Their beloved black goo.

How Israel fits in:

Israel was set up to destroy the middle east and control religious sites.

The greater Israel project is a mere stepping stone to destroy the Arab lands and in turn destroy Europe with what we see today with the migrant issues. This is why they are flat out flooding Europe at the moment so they can provoke a war via their Saudi inspired Wahhabi Islam which they created to destroy Islam and pit Muslim against Christian.

http://www.conspiracyschool.com/blog/globalists-created-wahhabi-terrorism-destroy-islam-and-justify-global-state

The US was a problem so they infiltrated it and subverted it to push their needs. We all know the details. They don't care if they destroy the US, or UK, EU Russia, China and everywhere else as long as the Khazar Empire is left alone while they do so.

The human trafficking, wars, climate agendas, 5G, big pharma, Tech sector, poisoning our food water air, blocking the sun etc….. Is all aimed at killing us off so they can maintain their goals as stated by the Georgia Guide stones.

‘Poorly Written’ Human Trafficking Law, Court Cases Are Roots of Border Crisis, Says DHS

A poorly written law aimed initially at preventing human trafficking of children and longstanding court precedent are at the center of the humanitarian crisis along the U.S. southern border, officials in the federal government argued repeatedly in recent weeks.

Department of Homeland Security officials cite a 2008 human trafficking law pushed by Democrats and signed President George W. Bush in the final weeks of his administration in addition to the 20-year-old Flores settlement, creating powerful magnets for minors and family units to the southwestern border.

“This humanitarian crisis is driven by court rulings and poorly written laws that incentivize the smuggling of illegal immigrants under the age of 18. Funding the border wall, amending the TVPRA, and ending the Flores Settlement Agreement will put smugglers and traffickers out of business and protect vulnerable populations,” DHS Spokeswoman Katie Waldman said in a written statement to Breitbart News.

“We need those physical barriers and we appreciate President Trump and all of those efforts in getting us get those physical barriers,” Judd added.

The European elections will bring big changes for Brussels – Polish Prime Minister

Poland’s Prime Minister, Mateusz Morawiecki, tells the Financial Times that European elections in May this year will bring big changes for Brussels. In his interview with the paper he said the elections would have a “strong” impact on the bloc.

The Prime Minister said: “Brussels and the European Commission need to be very receptive to what is going on in different countries”.

Further adding, “The voice of different countries, and in particular central European countries, will need to be heard much more clearly.”

Whilst he dismissed claims of central Europe sliding toward authoritarianism he did say that the EU officials “completely do not understand the situation in post-communist countries”.

Mr. Morawiecki suggests that Brussels end the disciplinary proceedings over Poland’s legal changes and suggests that the “EU as an institution needs reform . . . and when I speak to prime ministers from other countries, most of them agree that a serious revamp of procedures and institutions is needed, but everyone is waiting for the European elections”.

Ex-federal prosecutor says he agrees with AG nominee that Comey's firing alone does not constitute obstruction

Former federal prosecutor Gene Rossi said Friday that he agreed with parts of attorney general nominee William Barr's memo criticizing the special counsel investigation to the White House, including the statement that there cannot be an obstruction of justice case against President Trump based solely on the firing of former FBI Director James Comey.

"I read the whole thing. I agree with parts of what the attorney general [nominee] Barr said," Rossi told Hill.TV's Jamal Simmons and Buck Sexton on "Rising." "If you're going to make a charge based alone on the firing of Comey, that dog won't hunt."

"Alone, that would be a tough case to present to a jury, but my understanding based on my involvement with witnesses and matter is the Comey firing is part of an overall scheme of actions that suggest obstruction," he continued.

"That one instance of Comey being fired, I would never try that to a jury. Never," he said.

Rossi, who has been critical of Trump in the Russia probe, is a Democrat who was defeated in the party's primary for Virginia's lieutenant governor in 2017.

The Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday that Barr sent the Department of Justice a memo in June slamming the federal investigation into Russian election meddling, including any possible ties between the Trump campaign and Moscow.

Barr in the memo warned that Trump's interactions with Comey would not necessarily establish an obstruction of justice case.

Democrats, including Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), said the memo effectively disqualifies Barr from becoming attorney general, in which capacity he would oversee the special counsel.
