For new followers. Big case decided last year in court of federal claims. A judge looks at the language of the law and concluded that a ll IRS deadline-based processses should have been suspended from Jan 20, 2020 - July 13, 2023. This the particular plaintiff in Kwong v US was entitled to penalty relief as the IRS illegally assessed penalties the COVID entire disaster declaration that spanned two presidencies. During the federally decalred disaster period, the IRS decided to willfully break the law and did whatever they wanted to do. Instead of suspending collections and audits (along with penalties and interest) the IRS acted 100% illegally for 3 1/2 years and owes what I would estimate to be around a trillion dollars back to American people. The government argument is this: if the IRS commits a crime spree vast enough to affect the entire country for 3 1/2 years, the courts must not interfere, as accountability puts the government in a significant hardship position. "Won't someone think of the poor government?" is essentially the government's argument. All IRS deadline-based IRS processes should have been suspended from Jan 20, 2020 - July 13, 2023.
