Trump To Create External Revenue Service
January 17, 2025
Writes Ginny Garner:
Lew,
President elect Trump wants to create a new agency called the External Revenue Service to collect his new proposed tariffs. A new government agency! Does DOGE (Elton Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy) know about this? Currently the US Customs and Border Protection agency collects tariffs. Will Trump eliminate the IRS? The main source of revenues for the federal government was tariffs until the income tax (taxes on wages and earnings). Will Trump cut the income tax? Or is this all about more taxes and more government?
