Episode 73:  In this episode, Timalyn addresses taxpayers who can't afford tax representation and how they can get help through the Low-income taxpayer clinics.  What is the Low-Income Taxpayer Clinic? The low-income taxpayer clinic (LITC) helps qualifying taxpayers handle disputes with the IRS. It receives funding for the IRS but it is independent from the IRS and the Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS). LITCs offer tax representation services, not tax preparation services like the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program.  LITCs can help taxpayers respond to IRS notices, handle audits, payment arrangements, and educate them on their rights and responsibilities as a taxpayer. All of these services are offered for a free or a small fee.  LITCs can also represent taxpayers in court. Who is eligible for the Low-Income Taxpayer Clinic? Taxpayers must meet certain criteria to be eligible to receive services from a LITC. The taxpayers income must be under a certain threshold. This threshold is 250% of poverty guidelines for 2025. The amount of the dispute is also usually under $50,000. These same services are available to taxpayers whose first language is not English. Members of the ESL community may receive tax education from the LITC. How can I find a Low-Income Taxpayer Clinic? You can find an LITC near you by searching Publication 4134, Low Income Taxpayer Clinic List (PDF). If you are a spanish speaking taxpayer there is also a spanish version of the form that you can access here: Publication 4134 (sp), Low Income Taxpayer Clinics (LITCs) (Spanish version) .  What if I don't qualify for the Low-Income Taxpayer Clinic? If you make too much money to qualify for the LITC all hope is not lost. You still have options such as an Installment Agreements, exploring an Offer in compromise is and How to qualify for an offer in compromise. But if those aren't right Currently not collectible status may be the right option for your account.  Need Tax Help Now?

Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down President Trump rolling back Joe Biden's fuel-economy mandates on automakers, a stunning new report on widespread Obamacare fraud, and Gov. Gavin Newsom's push to tax former California residents to plug his state's massive budget deficit.First, they applaud President Trump for scrapping the Biden administration's burdensome fuel-economy standards. The move will likely lower costs and will almost certainly save lives. Jim and Greg unload on Democrats who want to limit our choices on the vehicles we drive and in other areas of life.Next, they groan as a Government Accountability Office (GAO) report shows that the government accepted 100 percent of fraudulent Obamacare exchange applications that the GAO submitted as part of its investigation. In addition, the actual Obamacare fraud happening in the system is costing taxpayers billions of dollars and much of it happens when applicants use the Social Security numbers of dead people.Finally, they laugh as California Gov. Gavin Newsom attempts to fix his state's budget disaster by taxing people who have already moved away. Jim turns to a classic song to underscore how absurd the idea is, and he hopes someone sues the state if lawmakers actually pass the plan.Please visit our great sponsors:Give your liver the support it deserves with Dose Daily.  Save 35% on your first month when you subscribe at https://DoseDaily.co/3ML or enter code 3ML at checkout.  For a limited time, try OneSkin for 15% off with code 3ML at https://OneSkin.co/3ML — please support our show and mention we sent you!New episodes every weekday.

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: A major investigation out of Minnesota.

Washington State loses a taxpayer every 30 minutes to Republican states - and by the time you finish watching this video, another freedom-loving American will have packed up and said 'see ya later' to progressive paradise. We're diving deep into the shocking migration data that has woke politicians scrambling for excuses while their constituents vote with their feet.From Seattle's new socialist mayor needing to explain basic economics to applauding crowds, to Governor Ferguson's eye-watering $9.4 billion tax hike, we're watching the progressive playbook destroy communities in real time. Meanwhile, Florida, Texas, and North Carolina are rolling out the red carpet every few minutes for refugees from blue state misery.Is this just about taxes, or are Americans finally fed up with defunded police, rampant homelessness, and virtue-signaling politicians who treat taxpayers like ATMs? What will it take for Washington to hit rock bottom at #51?Smash that like button if you're tired of watching common sense get taxed out of existence, and don't forget to subscribe for more brutal reality checks our leaders don't want you to see!

With nearly 30 billion-dollar extreme weather events in 2024 alone, disaster costs are spiraling out of control—and Congress is finally taking action. Steve Ellis sits down with TCS Director of Research Josh Sewell and Policy Analyst Tyler Work to examine the FEMA Act of 2025, bipartisan legislation that could modernize America's approach to disaster preparedness and response. They explore what the bill gets right—from elevating FEMA back to cabinet-level status to expanding mitigation funding—and where critical gaps remain. The conversation covers transparency reforms, the need for smarter rebuilding standards, the importance of front-end investment over back-end bailouts, and why federal disaster programs must stop subsidizing development in high-risk zones. At stake: whether reform delivers real resilience or just repeats costly mistakes. 

Anyone thinking about pushing the boundaries of tax law should remember that there's no federal statute of limitations on prosecuting fraud, even with weakened IRS enforcement, said Carolyn Schenck, who spent 20 years at the agency primarily combating tax evasion. "If people think that a current administration or a past administration might go soft on tax fraud, that's still an awfully big gamble," said Schenck, who's now at Caplin & Drysdale. "And I know that that's not one I personally would want to take." The IRS is coming off a tumultuous year with deep staffing cuts from the Trump administration's efforts to downsize the federal government and a parade of new commissioners. But increasing IRS staff and resources would be one of the best ways the government could combat fraud and collect more of the money it's owed, Schenck said. On this episode of Talking Tax, Schenck sat down with Bloomberg Tax reporter Erin Schilling to discuss what Trump administration workforce cuts mean for IRS enforcement and how the agency could improve its efforts to go after illegal tax shelters, even with a diminished staff.

CBS News' Chris Livesay reports. The Trump administration is rejecting accusations that at least one of its attacks on an alleged drug boat may amount to a war crime.

Bush, explains the latest on the attacks, if he thinks a war crime was committed and what happens next.

Marjorie Taylor Greene, the firebrand Georgia congresswoman, announced in November she is planning to resign from Congress. Her last day in office will be January 5, 2026, over a month away. One potential reason she is hanging on for a bit longer, enduring the president's ire and the possible threats to personal safety that sometimes follow: It ensures that she will be in office for more than five years, locking in a bare minimum congressional pension.

It was embarrassing, unnecessary - and expensive. The ABC’s bungled handling of two casual radio presenting shifts by Antoinette Lattouf cost the broadcaster - and therefore taxpayers more than $2.62 million dollars.

We knew the rates cap was coming, but no one expected the government to drag it out this long. On today's episode, we dive into the plan to finally rein in council rate hikes… in 2029. That's six years after National took office. People need relief right now, not in the next political lifetime. Duncan reckons it's a great policy torpedoed by hopeless timing, and Jordan Williams from the Taxpayers' Union joins us to break down why councils are already licking their chops. With spending up, payrolls swelling, and some councils proposing record increases, the delay effectively gives them three years to pump rates even higher. We also get into the government's wider economic credibility, the slow-walked reforms, Nicola Willis' spending story, and whether this National-led government is sleepwalking toward becoming a one-term wonder. Find out why Duncan says this delay is nothing short of a masterclass in political uselessness. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Massive Welfare Fraud in Minnesota Funding Terrorism Allegations that Minnesota taxpayers indirectly funded the terrorist group Al-Shabab through fraudulent welfare programs. Fraud reportedly involved members of the Somali community, with billions of dollars stolen and millions sent to Somalia, some ending up with Al-Shabaab. The program cited is Minnesota’s Medicaid Housing Stabilization Services (HHS), which ballooned from an estimated $2.6 million to over $104 million annually before being scrapped. Criminal indictments have been announced, but the commentary criticizes lack of media coverage and political accountability. University of Minnesota’s “Whiteness Pandemic” Concept The university published material describing “whiteness” as a cultural pandemic driving racism. Family systems perpetuate whiteness and calls for self-reflection and re-education for white individuals. The commentary strongly condemns this as Marxist, anti-family, and anti-American ideology, framing it as indoctrination in higher education. Texas Designates Muslim Brotherhood and CARE as Terrorist Organizations Texas Governor Greg Abbott declared CARE (Council on American-Islamic Relations) and the Muslim Brotherhood as foreign terrorist and transnational criminal organizations. This move prevents these groups from acquiring land in Texas. The discussion highlights CARE’s alleged financial support for anti-Israel campus protests and the broader legislative push to federally designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization. Mentions bipartisan efforts in Congress (Senators Ted Cruz and John Fetterman) and resistance from the State Department. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Guest host James Li and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger highlight how lobbying groups like the Anti Defamation League are pressuring Congress to unlock up to $4 billion from an American taxpayer fund, despite October 7th occurring on foreign soil and involving largely foreign nationals.  The hosts argue that the proposal would inflame public anger, deepen anti-Israel sentiment, and fuel the political machinery that profits from perpetual outrage and accusations of antisemitism. Ultimately, they warn that this move could tear at America's social fabric while being used to justify expanding surveillance, censorship, and political control. Plus segments on the curious geographic source of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Twitter page, the Trump administration's betrayal of the MAHA movement over pesticides and Trump's threats of execution against Democratic Members of Congress for alleged acts of sedition.

Trump moves to end protections for Somali immigrants in Minnesota after reports tie taxpayer funds to massive fraud and terrorism financing. The panel breaks down the alleged $250M scheme, Al-Shabaab links, assimilation failures, and backlash from state leaders.

FBI Director Kash Patel is being called out for mis-using law enforcement. Patel assigned an FBI SWAT team to protect his girlfriend Alexis Wilkins after she faced online threats. The agents didn't live up to Patel's standards for private security. The agents went to the Georgia World Congress Center where Wilkins was speaking and when they found the venue secured and Wilkins in no danger, they left before the event ended. Patel reportedly tore into the team's commander. It wasn't the only time agents were assigned to watch over Wilkins. Should he have paid for her security himself or should taxpayers assume the cost?We will ask Pulitzer Prize winning author and investigative journalist David Cay Johnston for his thoughts. Does Trump really mean what he says?

California loses one taxpayer every minute while families pay a staggering $29,753 "penalty" just to live there - yet politicians wonder why people are fleeing in record numbers? Meanwhile, Florida gains a new taxpayer every two minutes, Texas every three minutes, and even states like Tennessee are cleaning up. We break down the jaw-dropping costs driving this mass exodus and why liberal policies are creating economic refugees in their own states. From Seattle's new socialist mayor to California's zoning "solutions" that won't fix anything, we explore how government overreach is literally pricing out middle-class families. The data doesn't lie - states with no income tax, reasonable regulations, and pro-business policies are booming while high-tax, high-regulation states hemorrhage residents and revenue. Is anyone surprised that people choose freedom and affordability over virtue signaling and endless taxation? What will it take for these politicians to admit their policies are driving away the very taxpayers funding their bloated budgets? Subscribe for more government accountability and hit that notification bell - because this trend is just getting started.

Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Resignation Greene announced she will resign from Congress in January. This is a significant moment for the Republican Party, emphasizing internal accountability and contrasting it with perceived Democratic inaction on radical elements. Greene’s shift from pro-Trump to anti-Israel and anti-capitalist positions is highlighted as a cautionary tale. Donald Trump’s withdrawal of support is portrayed as the decisive factor in her resignation. Minnesota Welfare Fraud Funding Al-Shabaab A report claims Minnesota taxpayers indirectly funded the terrorist group Al-Shabaab through massive welfare fraud. Fraud involved members of the Somali community in Minnesota, exploiting Medicaid programs like Housing Stabilization Services. Billions of dollars were stolen, with millions allegedly routed to Somalia and ultimately to Al-Shabaab via informal money networks. The commentary criticizes Democratic leadership and media for ignoring the issue, framing it as both a security threat and a failure of governance. Texas Redistricting Battle Texas redrew its congressional map to add five Republican seats. A federal district court struck down the map, but Justice Alito issued a stay, keeping the new map in place for now. This decision could determine control of the House and contrasts Republican and Democratic gerrymandering practices. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Ford says it cannot fill 5,000 mechanic jobs at 120k a year as the panel debates whether America faces a true labor shortage or a wage problem. The conversation expands into student visas, trade skills, college majors, and how bad policy is distorting the entire labor market.

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down a Democratic congressional candidate trashing the city she wants to represent, the escalating clash over Democrats urging the military to defy President Trump, and shocking revelations about taxpayer money ending up with Somali terrorists.First, they laugh as Democrat Tennessee congressional hopeful Aftyn Behn blasts Republicans for claiming Behn hates Nashville, which is in the district she wants to represent.
