“$700 million in interest is added to the final bill every month that the government delays tariff refunds, or around $23 million per day.”

It’s insane that the American tax payers paid more for products, and now they get to pay interest on their illegal payments, and all of that money goes into the coffers of private companies — who will no doubt use it to issue special dividends to their investors and bonuses to their execs.

Any sane administration would be promptly removed and this would be a chain around their neck for a generation.

Alright, well the only way they are getting promptly removed is if average Americans all decide they need to go to DC to physically do it.

If only the 'opposition' party wasn't spineless. Y'know how the j6ers did their coup? Republicans paid for it.

Can't it be claimed as a tax refund? If not, why? Just claim it and sue if it's not paid out. I feel it's a refundable expense, no?
