Has anyone gotten a letter from the Treasury?

I'm thinking it is the letter from Trump. If so, it says below the return address... Official Business Penalty for Private Use, $300

It isn't in the mail yet and I am debating on whether to open it or send it back with a message when it arrives this afternoon.

Yup, and the IRS paid the postage... haele Apr 2020 #2
Think of it as a way Trump inadvertantly helped to pay the Postal Service. n/t PoliticAverse Apr 2020 #4

Had his name showing thru a peek window?


That Penalty for Private Use, $300 seems a case can be made Trump can be prosecuted.

Printed on "White House"letterhead, and written by someone in public affairs who has a background in advertising and access to Reagan and Poppy's speeches.
Oh, and was definitely signed with a medium point Sharpie. Can almost detect the wicking the ink did on the original paper before they turned it into an editable PDF.

I did open it because it was from the IRS and one never knows what that is about but I wouldn't have opened it had I known I was going to see Trumpy's sharpie scribble.

An acquaintance got one and it's not as soft as the old Sears Roebuck catalog page, but it's a lot better than a corncob.
