Most Jews have been banging on the table for the last 19 months that this could happen.

I’m proud to have the opportunity to testify in front of the Colorado State Legislature to support a bill (HB25-1005) that would provide a tax credit to Sundance Film Festival (should they choose to make #boulder and #colorado their home).

You know what I really don’t want to do right now? Submit my tax forms to the IRS. Who is there to receive them? Will they be dumped directly onto the Musk intern’s server? Is there any chance I’ll get my refund? And what exactly am I paying federal taxes for if it’s not funding ED, USAID, etc.?
