American tax officials

Chapter 387 Two-Sided Game

"Damn it, Stancho, do you know what you're saying?!"

"Stancio, you really have audacity! That's a senator from Congress, not some homeless person who'd die and nobody would care!"

"Damn it, don't get us into this mess. David is desperate to find something on us right now. If we do this, and they use it against us, our reputation will be ruined."

The Freemasons present could no longer tolerate it and stood up in a swarm, hurling insults and accusations.

"Heh, our elders dared to kill even the president back then. What, now that you're asked to do something so threatening, you're too scared to do it? No wonder David can ride roughshod over you guys!"

Stanqiu did not back down despite the insults from the crowd. Instead, he was enraged and retorted sarcastically.

"Fuck, what are you talking about!"

"You damn bastard!"

"How dare you speak to us like that!"

Undoubtedly, Stanciu's words struck a nerve with many people present and caused an uproar.

"What am I talking about? I'm teaching everyone how to win this war!"

Stanciu sneered and continued, "If you really want to win, you'll have to be even more ruthless than David. This isn't about threatening the president or the IRS, it's just those senators. What's the problem with that?"

His words did not move the Freemasons present; instead, they fueled their anger.

Many people are already itching to teach him a lesson.

"I think Stanciu's opinion makes some sense."

Just then, a voice of support rang out, stopping everyone in their tracks. Everyone turned to look, and it was Samuel Schiff, the head of the Schiff family, one of the eight major families that control the Federal Reserve, who spoke these words.

"At this point, the only way to get enough votes is to take extreme measures. And what kind of extreme measures? Of course, it's like Stancio said: directly exploit these councilors' weaknesses. This will ensure they don't turn against us and work for us!"

"Of course, there are indeed great risks involved in doing this. If it gets exposed, it could instantly ruin our reputation. But don't forget, we're not the only ones involved in this war; the Ansar and the Illuminati are also deeply embroiled in it!"

Samti added.

Upon hearing this support, Stanciu, who had almost been surrounded and attacked, gave him a grateful look.

As for the Freemasons who were initially furious, they calmed down a bit.

Upon closer examination, what Stanciu and Samti said wasn't entirely wrong.

The methods of coercion and bribery used to win votes, whether in the previous House of Representatives or the current Senate, have clearly failed to achieve their desired results.

While taking such extreme measures might provoke public outrage, it is generally the most effective way to derail the bill at this stage.

Another crucial point, as Samti said, is that it's not just them who are involved in the war now; the Ansar and the Illuminati are also deeply embroiled in it.

If the three major groups jointly plan this operation, not only will the success rate be increased, but even if something goes wrong, everyone can share the burden, and the risk is indeed not as great as imagined.

Thinking of this, everyone present couldn't help but turn to look at Henrietta, wanting to hear his opinion.

After thinking for nearly three minutes, Henrietta looked at Stanciu and said, "I do agree with your opinion, but I hope you will apologize to everyone for what you just said!"

Stanciu's provocative words earlier not only offended the other members, but also made him very unhappy.

As a core leader of the Freemasons, he had to uphold this dignity.

Stanqiu dared not refuse, so he quickly stood up, bowed to everyone, and said, "I'm sorry everyone, I got a little carried away and overreacted just now, please forgive me!"

"Alright, sit down!"

Henrietta gestured to Stanciu, then said, "The CIA has become David's henchman, and the FBI isn't much better off. Even if we were to do this, it wouldn't be easy to accomplish it under their noses..."

"It's true that the CIA and FBI have David's henchmen, but the National Security Agency is still controlled by the Illuminati. They can get that department to do this!"

Since Stanciu was able to make this suggestion, he must have already thought out all the arrangements.

Don't let the fact that the National Security Agency doesn't have the same prestigious name as the CIA or FBI fool you; it's no pushover.

How did the famous Albert Stein die?

In fact, it was agents of the National Security Agency sent by the Illuminati who killed him.

Moreover, it should be noted that Epstein was imprisoned in one of the highest-security prisons in the United States, yet he was still managed to be eliminated silently by the National Security Agency.

Now it's just a matter of finding the senators' weaknesses, which should be a piece of cake.

"Alright, immediately notify the Illuminati and the Ansar Group. We'll discuss this matter further!"

In the following period, the Freemasons, the Unsa Group, and the Illuminati held a tripartite video conference.

When Henrietta proposed taking action against the families of those senators, the Ansar Group and the Illuminati were initially taken aback and strongly opposed it.

However, after being persuaded by Henrietta and a group of Freemasons, the two major factions eventually agreed to the plan.

After all, even if something really goes wrong, if the three parties share the burden, they should be able to handle it.

……

While the three major groups were plotting their schemes.

At the IRS headquarters, David was also discussing the matter with Raglan and the others who had arrived.

But no matter how they discuss it, there is only one conclusion: the Senate's speech procedure must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise the longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for them!

"Alright, I'll handle this. You guys go back and prepare for tomorrow."

"Yes, Inspector David."

As soon as Ragren and the others left, Munson walked in with a document in his hand and said, "This is information that Director Elvis just obtained. These two senators can give it a try."

David nodded slightly and took the documents to examine them.

Half an hour later, having gathered enough information about the two senators, David led Munson and the others out of the headquarters.

……

Time quickly came to 9 p.m.

David and his group arrived at suite 1208 of the Westin Centre Hotel and rang the doorbell.

About a minute later, the door opened, and a Black woman appeared in front of Su Yi and the others.

Upon seeing David and his group, the Black woman frowned slightly, but quickly regained her composure and asked, "Inspector General David, what brings you here so late?"

"Senator Yuna, may I have a word with you?"

The senator, named Yuna, hesitated for a few seconds before gesturing for her to proceed.

"Coffee or...?"

"Please give us a glass of water, thank you!"

Soon, Yuna brought over several glasses of water and then sat down on the sofa opposite David.

David picked up his water glass, took a sip, and looked at her, saying, "Senator Yuna, I'm sure you've guessed somewhat why I'm here today. That's right, I'm here to garner your votes. Would you be interested in voting for us tomorrow?"

Yuna shook her head and said, "If I wanted to vote for you, I would have done so long ago. Why wait until now?"

"That makes sense, but Senator Yuna, I think you are a reasonable person. If I remember correctly, you not only voted in favor of our IRS's tax evasion bill, but you also publicly supported the bill on multiple occasions."

"If that's the case, why continue to support our off-site tax avoidance bill?"

"You should know very well that the benefits this bill brings to the country are hundreds or even thousands of times greater than those of the black tax bill!"

David didn't want to resort to threats right away, which is why he was trying so hard to persuade him.

"Since Inspector General David has put it that way, I'll be frank. You should know very well that the tax evasion bill only affects the interests of those criminals, so the resistance will naturally be small. Besides, it's politically correct!"

"As for this current off-site tax avoidance bill, it affects the interests of capitalists across the United States. There are too many things involved, and a slight misstep could lead to utter ruin. Therefore, I hope you can understand my difficulties!"

Yuna's words were quite straightforward.

"As a senator, you should be fulfilling your duties. You should be thinking about the interests of ordinary people, not trying to stand on the side of those capitalists and think for them. And do you really think that standing on their side will guarantee you won't be destroyed?"

David began by appealing to people's emotions, but his subsequent words began to carry a hint of warning.

"No need for further explanation, Inspector General David, my mind is made up!"

"Senator Yuna, do you know why so many members of Congress are now under my command?"

A cold glint appeared in David's eyes.

Yuna pursed her lips and replied, "No one has ever had this kind of influence over Congress. Even the three major corporations would have a hard time standing up to you in Congress if they didn't unite. I admit you are indeed very capable in this respect."

"So, does that mean we really have nothing to talk about?"

Yuna shook her head helplessly.

This time, David didn't reply, but instead gestured to Munson behind him.

Munson immediately took a document out of his bag and pushed it in front of Yuna, while David added, "Senator Yuna, I think you'd better not look at this. It's not too late to change your mind!"

Yuna stared at the document in front of her, remained silent for about ten seconds, and finally picked it up, opened it, and began to examine it.

Ten minutes later, after reading the entire document, Yuna showed little surprise or confusion; her eyes were filled with despair.

She had already considered this: David was able to control the other members of Congress because he must have a lot of dirt on them, and it wasn't impossible for someone to get her too.

Now that I see it, it's indeed true!

"I warned you, Senator Yuna, that it would have been better for you not to watch it, but since you've chosen to, then give us an answer!"

David said expressionlessly.

"I stand by my previous choice. You should go back; there's no need to discuss this further!"

"What! Senator Yuna, do you know what you're saying? Do you know what this document represents? You... did you even read it properly?!"

Before David could speak, Munson blurted out in a tone of incomprehension.

It's not hard to understand why he's like this.

It's important to understand that the contents of this document are absolutely enough to ruin Senator Yuna's reputation, and might even land her in jail.

In the past, even the most hardline lawmakers, when faced with such damaging information, would ultimately choose to delay rather than take a swift and decisive action.

But now, this Senator Yuna doesn't seem to have the slightest intention of compromising?

What exactly is going on?

Besides Munsen, David was also looking at Yuna with a furrowed brow.

Senator Yuna is only 48 years old this year, an age when she is at the peak of her political career in the United States, and she has a bright future ahead of her.

How come they not only disregard their own future, but are also not afraid of going to jail?

Could there be a vulnerability in this document?

But that's impossible. The idea had barely crossed his mind when David immediately dismissed it.

He had known about the damaging information in this document for a long time, and later handed it over to the CIA to fabricate a story. It was absolutely enough to bring a devastating blow to Yuna, and there couldn't possibly be any loopholes.

So the question is, what is it that makes the other party still so determined?

"I know, and I see it clearly. If you want to do it, then go ahead and do it. We have different positions, and I won't hold any grudges against you!"

David and the others, who were already puzzled, became even more confused after hearing Yuna's words.

The reason is simple: you can tell from the other party's words that the document is absolutely correct.

What exactly gave her the courage?

After thinking for a while without success, David stopped lingering, stood up and walked towards the door, and Munson and the other two could only follow him out one after another.

"What's going on? This document is very serious for her; she shouldn't be so firmly sticking to her previous stance!"

Even after getting into the car, Munsen still seemed very depressed.

"There's always something fishy going on when things are unpredictable. Yuna is acting very strangely. What exactly did the three major corporations promise her that makes her so unafraid of ruining her reputation?"

"Damn it, since she's not afraid, we have to teach her a lesson to warn the others!"

Jerry and Larin were also indignant.

But then David interrupted, saying, "Let's put this aside for now and deal with Mandel first!"

Upon hearing this, Munson and his companions dared not dwell on the topic any longer and could only start their car and drive toward the address of the next senator.
