I got a letter from the IRS to inform me my Economic Impact Payment

was in. I actually received it two weeks ago but this letter was signed by our despicable President. The letter head inside was "The White House". Because it was from the IRS I opened it quickly fearing a dreaded audit and then boom the kindergarten style signature of Trump was on the letter. Nice trickery to get people to see his signature. Ugh!

And I tore it up into little tiny pieces! I was actually surprised that it was in English on one side and Spanish on the other. Yours too?

Ours was in English only. Is there a bilingual requirement for government communications in your state?

Ordinary tax-paying SS recipient, but haven’t received mine yet, and “Get My Payment” now has “no information” on me.

I did not open it and put it in the sack with the nightly scoop of cat litter and promptly took it out to the garbage.

I knew what it was. There's no other reason the Department of Treasury would be sending us a letter!

he gave them the money personally out of his own largesse.

I wonder how many will fall for it.

I wonder how much mailing these letters cost taxpayers?

The only good thing is it put money into the USPS.
