The Oversight Subcommittee of the House Ways and Means Committee was holding a hearing on How the Tax Code Subsidizes Hate. Its theme was removing tax-exempt status from groups it didn’t like.
DEMOCRATS ON OVERSIGHT APPEARED TO BE PROPOSING TO PUT THE SPLC AND ITS SPURIOUS HATE LISTS AND MAPS IN CHARGE OF TAX-EXEMPT STATUS
The Democrats running it didn’t issue a full list of allegedly discriminatory groups they wanted the government to discriminate against, but the Committee’s Twitter list of ‘hate groups’seem to overlap with a list assembled by the Southern Poverty Law Center and curated by Philanthropy Magazine.
The Southern Poverty Law Center’s leadership was recently forced to resign over racism and sexual harassment. Its hate map had inspired a terrorist attack against the Family Research Council in D.C. In the same city where the hearing was taking place, Floyd Corkins had shot Leo Johnson, the African-American building manager, while trying to murder members of the conservative civil rights group.
“Southern Poverty Law lists anti-gay groups. I found them online,” Corkins had told the FBI.

How can Congress do that without voting on legislation and the Senate voting for it as well? They can’t just do that by Dem fiat, can they? What the freak is going on?
Again I have to ask, why does it require tax exempt status to collaborate in the way of politics. Just communicate, by whatever means are at hand. If the sons of liberty cannot enact workarounds over the sons of tyranny, then what business do we have claiming the mantle of self-government?
Sorry, House Dems, but you don’t run the Executive Branch.
Man, did you nail that one.
Correct me if I wrong, but wasn’t the revolutionary war started over taxes? Bet our founding fathers would love to have AR-15’s
You can draw the start up of the Revolutionary War to two key factors. First, from 1609 to 1774....various Indian wars were fought, which required the King’s ‘men’. Thousands were sent over during this period and participated in defeating the Indians. All of this however....had a price-tag attached, for the King’s ‘men’.
So the second issue, which you are correct on...taxation that started to increase in the 1760-1770 period.
If expansion had been controlled or limited, the Indian wars would have lessened, and the need for Army troops would have lessen as well.
Pamela, thanks for the great job you do, but your a few years off on this story. Been happening for quite a while.
A bit of a self fulfilling prophecy. When the leftist ‘rats come after me and my people like they are...yeah, I hate them for it. Go ahead and tag me as part of a hate group, you brought it on yourself with your fascist tactics. Maybe that’s been their objective all along, to provoke us into becoming that which they claim we are.
Bet our founding fathers would love to have AR-15’s
= = =
Back then, they may have been designated AR-1’s.
Something about tea and stamp taxes.
That is what I don’t get. The executive branch controls the IRS. They can’t just do this. Obama did this form of hassaling to our side’s detriment.
Why not. They got away with under Hussein.
Pam and Freepers. Try to find online the House Ways & Means Committee’s subcommittee hearing on Tax Exempt Organizations (possibly entitled “Investigation of Tax Exempt Organizations and Abuse of Tax Exempt Status), from about 1987. Attached to it as an exhibit is a report on the abuse of tax exempt status/funds by Communist Party and various communist/Marxist organizations to aid terrorists in Latin America (via CISPES, possibly MADRE, Nat. Network to Aid Nicaragua - Sandinistas front), etc).
This report was submitted in lieu of being notified too late of the hearing and thus not being able to appear as a witness. The Committee allowed us to submit this report instead.
IT was written by the Council for Inter-American Security, a leading anti-communist research organization that specialized in exposing and fighting communist/Marxist fronts and organizations aiding various communist governments and movements in Latin America (and possibly several aiding the No. Vietnam/Viet Cong in Vietnam - including MAI - Medical Aid to Indochina which later reemerged as MAES - Medical Aid to El Salvador, both run by Tom Hayden’s top fundraiser, William Bill Zimmerman. You can find key information on these groups at www.keywiki.org, search under their full names).
There are weapons within the IRS tax-exempt organizations rules of operation that can be used against SPLC, CAIR, ICNA, etc. A good lawyer on our side should be able to pick out which ones we can use as weapons to destroy the Left.

If a poll was ever conducted with the question “Is our two party system working” ? The response would be 90% negative. What is being employed by This so called coup d’ etat against Trump should not be viewed as against Trump but an impeachment of our constitution. .
Everything the man has attempted to get done has been blocked by a radical group composed mainly of members of the democrat party in top leadership legislative and judicial branches of government who view the constitution as an obstacle to their concepts of government intrusion on individual liberty guaranteed by it as they advance their policies
As one who has served in the church, I oppose 501(c)3 tax exemption for churches.
The Johnson Amendment was a bribe for political silence - and the clergy took it.
I have never claimed any credit for my own tithing either. Not one cent.
Jesus did not say: Render unto God what is God’s - with a nice tax deduction from Caesar.
