Chapter 561: Chapter 283: Making the Cover of Time Magazine
After leaving the White House, Donald immediately called David and said, “David, the White House has made a promise to us that they won’t easily grant clemency to the Sackler family, so rest assured on that point.”
“That would be for the best…”
“Oh, right, I have something to tell you about the ‘Aid W Act’…”
At the Los Angeles IRS, David wasn’t too surprised to hear about this act, but when he learned that the White House intended to use all the funds he had “collected” during this period to finance the act, his brows slightly furrowed.
The White House and Congress had their own political views, and he had his own as well.
In his opinion, instead of spending so much money on supporting this so-called war, it would be better to spend more on the country’s economy, education, healthcare, and other issues.
On that point, his political views were quite similar to those of the previous Knowing King.
The Knowing King also didn’t like wars, which is why he reduced a lot of the overseas military funding during his term, redirecting it to develop the domestic economy, which ultimately had good results.
But speaking of which, he was now of little influence and certainly wouldn’t be able to shake the White House and Congress’s current major policies. So although he was reluctant, he had no choice but to comply.
It seems that he would have to get into the central agency after all, to have a say in the allocation of tax revenues!
…
The sun set in the west, and another day came to a close.
As for the Swiss Bank incident, it was still fermenting, and when the media ferreted out the news that the funds transferred back to the Sackler family amounted to a staggering 17.8 billion, there was nothing but applause.
After all, in everyone’s eyes, the Sackler family was evil, and that money was tainted with countless lives. Now that it had been confiscated by the IRS, to be used in budgets for various areas, this was considered compensation to everyone.
On the East Coast of New York, Senado Island.
“The Swiss Bank incident this time has touched our lifeline, I feel we must take action no matter what!”

“Exactly, David and the IRS are becoming too reckless. If this continues, the Sackler family today might be us tomorrow. We must make them clearly recognize our existence!”
“Now is not the time to act. The White House, Congress, and those Angsa people will for sure interfere. Our Freemasonry cannot face such immense pressure.”
“The Aid W Act is right before us now, and the White House, Congress, and the Angsa people need David and the IRS at this time. We can’t move against him now!”
“…”
After the Swiss Bank indirectly transferred the Sackler family’s assets, there was a whole day of arguing within the Freemasonry.
Those on the Left believed that it had clearly threatened their interests, and they could no longer sit idly by; they had to retaliate.
However, the more conservative people on the Right thought that the IRS itself was very powerful, and given the importance of the Aid W Act now, many powers would side with the IRS and David, making it an unfavorable time for reprisal.
As a result, neither side could persuade the other, resulting in a deadlock all day long.
“Have you all argued enough?”
The commanding voice of the head of the Rockefeller family interrupted everyone present, and all eyes were fixed on him.
“There’s an old saying in Huaxia, ‘A gentleman’s revenge is not too late even after ten years.’ Now too many people are relying on David, so we don’t need to take the risk of inciting public anger by facing him immediately. But we can wait until the Aid W Act passes before we hit back at him. There’d be much less resistance then, wouldn’t there?”
“Mr. Feige is right. As long as the Aid W Act is passed, then the Ansa Group, the White House, and Congress won’t rely on David as much. That’d be the most prudent time for us to take action.”
“I also support Mr. Feige’s view. Impatience can ruin a big plan!”
With the words of the head of the Rockefeller family, he instantly gained the support of those on the Right.
Just then, Bennett spoke up, “If we’re going to act after the Aid W Act is passed, we should consider what the best course of action would be, shouldn’t we?”
As the words fell, the room went quiet at once; even those aggressive Leftists couldn’t utter a word.
All day, they had been arguing about retaliation, but as for the specifics of how to retaliate, it was something they hadn’t really thought through.
As mentioned before, the IRS was not a pushover. If they wanted to retaliate, they needed a solid plan.
“I have a small suggestion, you might want to hear it!”
Just as the atmosphere started to grow tense, a voice rang out, making everyone look in its direction. It turned out that it was Bogwana who had spoken.
“Tell us, Bogwana, what is your suggestion?”
Joshua Morgan voiced the question on everyone’s mind.
“The best way to retaliate against David, someone has already shown us, is to repeal the Black Tax Act. This way, no matter how skilled David’s tactics are, he would immediately become a toothless tiger!”
“However… to repeal this act, the resistance is massive; even if we put all our effort into it, it’s difficult to say whether we can pull it off. But it’s okay, we can settle for the next best thing, like lobbying the White House to order a pardon for the Sackler family!”
Bogwana had convened the Freemasonry meeting mainly for this purpose, and seeing that the time was right, he immediately spoke up.
