Trump Administration Unveils Bold Plan to Dismantle IRS, Launch ERS, and End Tax Filing for Americans

Set to launch on Inauguration Day, January 20, 2025, the ERS aims to shift the tax burden away from hardworking Americans and onto foreign entities profiting from U.S. trade. Trump lambasted past trade deals as “soft and pathetically weak,” arguing they’ve enriched the world at America’s expense. “For far too long, we have relied on taxing our Great People using the Internal Revenue Service (IRS),” he stated. “It is time for that to change… We will begin charging those that make money off of us with Trade, and they will start paying, FINALLY, their fair share.”

In a recent interview, he elaborated: “And eventually we’ll be reducing taxes very substantially for the people of our country, because the money is so great coming in from tariffs that I’ll be able to reduce taxes … to a very large extent, and maybe almost completely.” He added, “It’s possible we’ll do a complete tax cut, because I think the tariffs will be enough to cut all of the income tax.” This could mean the end of annual tax filings for millions, freeing Americans from the IRS’s complex forms, audits, and penalties. Conservative economists argue this shift would stimulate growth, as citizens keep more of their earnings, while foreign competitors foot the bill. The administration has already taken steps to downsize the IRS, firing or offering buyouts to tens of thousands of employees. Reports indicate cuts of up to 50% in the workforce, including 27% of tax examiners and 26% of revenue agents, as part of broader efforts to eliminate waste.  Continued below this next clip with President Trump

Elon Musk, former co-head of the Department of Government Efficiency, had vowed to audit the IRS, which expanded aggressively under Biden and has been accused of targeting everyday Americans.Trump’s vision extends beyond cuts: by leveraging tariffs on imports—projected to generate trillions—the ERS could fully replace income tax revenue, making the U.S. a beacon of low-tax prosperity. Reactions on X have been electric, with users hailing the plan as a game-changer. @TaraBull808 posted an image captioned “Signed -Every American Citizen,” linking it to eliminating taxes for those under $150,000 and integrating ERS into the IRS. @NickAdamsinUSA urged abolishing the IRS entirely and establishing the ERS to collect from foreigners only. @InTranceWeLove echoed this, pleading with Trump to create the ERS and end domestic taxation. Even @TattoedLiberty declared, “Trump will abolish the IRS for the ERS.”

These posts reflect widespread conservative enthusiasm, viewing the ERS as a fulfillment of Trump’s America First agenda. Conservative outlets have amplified the story. Breitbart detailed Trump’s announcement, emphasizing how the ERS will ensure foreign trade partners pay up, potentially reducing reliance on the IRS. The Gateway Pundit highlighted the potential to abolish income taxes, noting Musk’s role in scrutinizing the IRS’s overreach. Fox News reported Trump’s promise of tax cuts via tariffs, starting with lower-income earners. These sources frame the plan as a victory against big government, aligning with long-standing GOP calls to simplify taxes and curb federal bureaucracy.
