read online that someone set-up a premium rate phone number where callers get charged $3.99/ min. then they posted flyers in their neighborhood that said "call this number to report illegal aliens," but the number just puts them on hold with music. so far, they've made $17,000

If all these oligarchs named in the Epstein Files are totally innocent, surely they’d be in favor of an independent investigation into Epstein’s crimes.

There's a law on the books to make corporations pay taxes on the huge profits they report to shareholders.
The Trump admin has quietly decided not to enforce it.
This de facto corporate tax break will add hundreds of billions to the deficit.
