G7 agrees to avoid higher taxes for US and UK companies

 U. S. and G7 Agreement on Tax Proposal

- U. S. companies are exempt from some parts of a global agreement, as supported by the Group of Seven (G7).

- The G7 established a "side-by-side" system following the removal of the Section 899 retaliatory tax from Trump’s tax and spending bill.

- The plan aims to recognize U. S. minimum tax laws and enhance the international tax system's stability.

U. S. Treasury Department Statement

- The Treasury noted that removing Section 899 allows for preserving gains made within the Inclusive Framework against base erosion and profit shifting.

- There is a shared understanding on developing this approach within the Inclusive Framework.

Impact on UK Businesses

- UK businesses avoid higher taxes after Section 899 was removed.

- The UK sees benefits in terms of certainty and stability for businesses.

- UK finance minister Rachel Reeves acknowledged the agreement as a response to business concerns but noted further action is needed against aggressive tax planning.

G7 Officials' Look Ahead

- G7 officials are eager to find a solution that is both acceptable and implementable for all members.

Trump’s Previous Actions

- In January, Trump’s executive order stated that the global corporate minimum tax deal did not apply to the U. S. , distancing from the 2021 arrangement involving nearly 140 countries.

- Trump threatened a retaliatory tax on countries taxing U. S. firms under the global tax agreement, negatively impacting foreign companies in the U. S.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
