Chapter 360: USB Flash Drive Strikes
"This... what should we do then?"
Donald's tone was clearly more anxious than before.
"Don't worry, Deputy Director Donald, even if The Big Three Groups find out I am working on this bill, I still have confidence I can push it through!"
"Do you really have confidence?"
"Really, rest assured!"
"All right, but remember to keep in touch and don't take everything upon yourself!"
"I understand..."
In the afternoon, over at Senado Island, the Freemasonry Group was also holding a meeting.
"What, he went to Alabama State?"
"What did he go there for?"
"Not clear..."
These days, Freemasonry had been waiting for David's move, but now hearing that David had actually gone to Alabama State, they were somewhat baffled.
As people were still confused about the situation, a man in a tailcoat came in and whispered to Henrietta, "Sir, Governor Bogwana suddenly arrived and brought a congressman with him, saying there's something important to discuss with you."
"Oh?"
Henrietta appeared puzzled, as, before the meeting started, Governor Bogwana had informed him that he couldn't attend this meeting due to the visit of France's head of state to California.
But why had he suddenly come now?
"Let him come in!"
Regardless of why Governor Bogwana suddenly arrived, the fact that he had left the reception of a country's head of state to come here meant it must be something major.

So, Henrietta couldn't afford much speculation and quickly gestured for them to come in.
A few minutes later, Governor Bogwana walked in, accompanied by a short-haired woman in her forties.
If David were here, he would recognize that this woman was the congressman he had met a few days ago.
"Mr. Henrietta, gentlemen, this is Congresswoman Samantha from Georgia State, she's here today because she has something important to tell everyone!"
Seeing the very serious expression on Governor Bogwana's face, everyone present realized that whatever was about to be said must be of great importance and began to listen intently.
"Ladies and gentlemen, just five days ago, David from the IRS approached me and tried to coerce and bribe me to cast a favorable vote for a bill he's about to push in Congress!"
"A bill? What bill?"
"He's pushing a bill?"
"I wondered why he's been so low-key these days, it turns out he's been scheming on a bill, but what kind of bill is it?"
Hearing Samantha's words, the Freemasonry members present were instantly in an uproar.
"This bill, which can be referred to as the 'Foreign Tax Evasion Bill', as the name implies, this bill will rearrange the tax shares in the Cayman Islands, British Virgin Islands, and other tax havens, meaning these tax havens will no longer enjoy large tax quotas. All businesses will have to pay taxes according to American domestic tax rates!"
"What!"
"Fake! He dares!"
"Such a vicious bill, bastard!"
After Samantha's words, the Freemasonry members present including Henrietta were shocked, but many quickly snapped back to reality and started cursing loudly.
You see, countless companies controlled by the Freemasonry Group are registered in tax havens like the Cayman Islands and the British Virgin Islands.
If this bill really passed, the tax amounts they would have to pay would be astronomical, literally a matter of life and death for them.
"Heh, I said this damn David wouldn't retaliate against us, turns out his revenge was already in motion, covertly trying to push such a bill, he's really too vicious!"
Joshua knew David would definitely seek revenge, but he hadn't imagined this bastard would dare to push such a bold bill!
"Wait... haha!"
While many were still cursing in anger about the bill, Prescott's laughter suddenly drew their attention.
"What do you mean, Prescott, how can you still laugh?"
If it weren't for the Rockefeller Family's significant position within the Freemasonry Group, many present would have expressed their 'greetings' already.
They're literally having a knife at their necks, and you're still happy?
"I think everyone needs to understand, since this bill stipulates that these tax havens no longer enjoy tax benefits, it's not just targeting us, but targeting the Illuminati, Freemasonry, and all the wealthy in America. If we leak this information and spin it properly, what do you think would happen?"
Hearing Prescott's explanation, many immediately caught on.
They had always been on guard against David's retaliation, so when hearing about this bill, they subconsciously assumed it was his revenge against them.
But now, thinking clearly, such a bill upon release wouldn't just target the Freemasonry Group alone, it's targeting all the wealthy!
And if this information was leaked, wouldn't all America's wealthy go ballistic?
"Prescott is right, we could indeed use this bill to our advantage. If we can incite the anger of the wealthy nationwide, the IRS will face unprecedented pressure, and by then, David might just be burned by his own fire!"
