Liberation Day: The Beginning of the End for Income Taxes?
Happy Liberation Day!
It’s honestly amazing how some folks are upset about the U.S. putting tariffs on other countries, even though they’ve been tariffing us for decades. We're finally charging half or equal to what they’re hitting us with, and people are mad? Let me ask: Do you also lay down when someone kicks you? Because that’s what we’ve been doing for years under globalist trade policies.
But here’s the truth: President Trump isn’t just matching tariffs—he’s flipping the script. For him, tariffs aren’t just tools for leverage, like past politicians used. They’re “admission tickets” to do business with the greatest consumer base in the world, the United States of America.
Here’s what’s really going on:
Before the 16th Amendment, the U.S. government funded itself through tariffs, not income taxes. The Founding Fathers designed it that way, no direct taxation of citizens. Trump is trying to take us back to that model by using tariffs to fund the government instead of taxing the American worker.
Tariffs were used in the 1800s to protect American industries and fund federal spending. Trump wants to revive that system to make the U.S. rich again without taxing its citizens.
According to Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, Trump’s vision is simple: replace the Internal Revenue Service with an “External Revenue Service.” Instead of taxing our wages, we tax other nations for access to our market. That’s real America First economics.

And it's already working:
Apple and Foxconn are building a $500 billion server factory in Texas.
SoftBank pledged $100 billion more in U.S. investments.
Companies are moving production into America to avoid tariffs—creating jobs, especially for the working class, the new core of the Republican base.
This is about more than just economics. It’s about national sovereignty, economic freedom, and restoring constitutional government. Trump's tariff policy is liberating us from the globalist system (like the WTO and IMF) and breaking free from the slavery of income taxes.
That’s why April 2nd is being called Liberation Day: a new chapter in American history where other countries finally pay to access our market instead of us paying to keep them happy.
So yes, we don’t lay down when someone kicks us. We stand up, we charge admission, and we Make America Wealthy Again.
