Hey @MAGA_X_Times I follow your stuff and appreciate a lot of what you post — you bring attention to stories most people overlook. But on this one? I’ve gotta let you know: That “April 4, 1985” IRS memo going around — it’s a fake. I don’t say that lightly. I did the digging myself. Let me walk you through exactly how we know it’s not real — and why this matters. ⸻ 🕵️‍♂️ 1. There’s no record of this memo inside the IRS. Back in 2011, someone actually filed a federal FOIA lawsuit (Robert v. IRS) demanding the government produce this exact letter. The court forced the IRS to search the 1985 files of the Commissioner. They came up with nothing. Quote from the ruling: “The IRS did not find the requested letter.” 👉 If this memo had ever existed, that’s exactly where it would’ve been found. It wasn’t. Period. ⸻ ⚖️ 2. The court case it references? Never dismissed. Let’s talk about what the memo claims: That on March 5, 1985, a tax evasion case was filed in Indianapolis by a U.S. attorney named George Duncan, and it was dismissed. But the real case it’s referencing is United States v. Ferguson, tried in Indianapolis that same year. The prosecutor’s name? Roger L. Duncan — not “George.” The outcome? Conviction. Followed by a failed appeal. So the memo got the name wrong, the location right, and completely reversed the verdict. That’s not a mistake. That’s made-up. ⸻ 📜 3. The 16th Amendment argument? Already been settled. The memo tries to argue that the income tax is illegal because the 16th Amendment was never properly ratified. Here’s the truth: This claim has been laughed out of court more times than I can count. Supreme Court cases like Brushaber v. Union Pacific R.R., and lower court rulings like Miller, Stahl, and Sochia have all affirmed the amendment’s validity. Even the IRS has an official list of cases where this exact claim was rejected — and they classify it as a frivolous legal argument. ⸻ 🧩 4. The memo’s got red flags all over it. Let’s talk how it’s written — and why it doesn’t pass the smell test: •Formatting: No routing codes, no IRS letterhead conventions. Just a basic typewriter look. •Language: Phrases like “Destroy this memorandum” and “We will not publish or advertise this finding” sound like something out of a thriller novel — not a government agency. •Logistics: It suggests the IRS secretly started processing refunds for everyone in America for the last 70+ years — without public notice, budget allocations, or congressional involvement? Come on. There’s no trace of any such effort in the Federal Register or appropriations records. That’s because it never happened. ⸻ 🧠 Final Verdict Here’s where we land: •There’s no record of the memo in official archives. •The case it references is real — but the details are fabricated. •The constitutional claim has been legally debunked for decades. •And the memo itself is clearly designed to fool people who are already suspicious of the IRS — using emotion, not evidence. This document has been floating around tax-protester circles since the ‘90s. It’s not a leak. It’s a prop. It’s disinformation — not suppressed truth. ⸻ Again — much love and respect. Just wanted to set the record straight on this one. We’ve got to be sharp, especially when we’re telling people to “look at this.” Sometimes the enemy wants us chasing ghosts. Let’s not let ‘em.

This alleged letter from one-time IRS Commissioner Egger is a fake. I asked Attorney Lowell "Larry" Becraft about it the last time I saw an X post about it, which was around early March of 2025. Larry confirmed the letter is fake. This is a direct quote from Larry's reply to me "Shortly after Bill’s [Bill Benson's] book was published and lots of people were interested in this issue, a patriot “guru” named Al Carter fabricated a fake letter allegedly authored by IRS Commissioner Roscoe Egger that stated that tax refunds were due because the 16th Amendment had not been ratified.This fake letter was widely distributed and Bill [Benson] and I received countless inquiries about it. Eventually by August, 1985, Bill and I learned that the letter had been fabricated and we talked to Carter about it and he admitted that he was the author of the fake letter."

I agree! Stop the taxes.

It’s real!

So what you want to do is bankrupt the United States? So we can be a third world country... We are already $36 trillion in debt. But you want to go after the government for more money that we don't have. That makes a lot of sense. I would be happy if they just stopped income tax...

First, it was ratified by two-thirds of the states. Second, there were 48 states in 1913 which means 32 had to ratify it...not 36 which is two-thirds of 50.

You see stop voluntarily paying those Federal Taxes, End the corruption.

Interesting! Then how can they charge interest on back taxes, if true?

The ratification process in several States was challenged as being rejected.. settled by a judge. Look deeper
