Americans withholding federal income tax to protest against Trump's war crimes.

US taxpayers are refusing to pay the federal government amid the war with Iran and more.

A 31-year-old lawyer in Chicago plans to put the $8,800 she owes the federal government in a high-yield savings account instead. She doesn’t want to fund wars in Iran and Gaza. Her recent Instagram video received more than 140,000 likes. Many commenters said they wanted to do the same. Others worried about her. “I’ve gotten a lot of people saying that what I am doing is illegal.” To them, she replied: "I am a competent attorney!”

She is not just competent but cunning to boot. Her slug fest with the IRS will probably make her a national icon and net her more money than she can count.

It won't do her career much good if she does come unstuck over that.

All that being a "competent attorney" may mean is that she can find tax-avoidance loopholes.

How can she come unstuck? Even I know how to stall paying taxes without coming to harm.

I think she wants publicity, the kind that can put her on the national stage. Class action lawsuit fighter. She is a young lawyer with nothing to lose.
