Tax law experts Peymon Mottahedeh and Joe Banister sat down with the Health Ranger Mike Adams to discuss the broader issues surrounding the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the American tax system at large.
The conversation came on the heels of President Donald Trump’s announcement to potentially eliminate the federal personal income tax. Mottahedeh kicked off the discussion by expressing his support for Trump’s proposal. The founder and president of the Freedom Law School highlighted the corruption and illegitimacy of the current tax system.
“The whole income tax system has been a scam on the American people because no law has ever required the people of the 50 states to file income taxes,” Mottahedeh stated. His bold claim is backed by personal experience. Mottahedeh hasn’t filed or paid income taxes for over 30 years, yet he remains unscathed by the IRS.
Banister, formerly a decorated special agent of the IRS’s Criminal Investigation Division, echoed Mottahedeh’s sentiments. He recounted his awakening to the truth about the income tax and the Federal Reserve during his tenure at the IRS.
The Federal Reserve and income tax were both established in 1913. The income tax was designed to service the debt created by the Federal Reserve, essentially making it a tool for the government to coerce citizens into funding its operations.

Adams challenged the conventional narrative that income taxes are necessary to fund government spending. He argued that the government can simply print money to cover its expenses, rendering the income tax unnecessary.
Banister agreed, explaining that the government has other means of generating revenue. Tariffs, which were the primary source of funding for the federal government in the 19th century, are one example of the government’s other revenue-generating policies.
Mottahedeh further argued that the income tax is not only unnecessary, but also unconstitutional. He believes that the federal government has overstepped its bounds, becoming a bloated entity that siphons resources from hardworking Americans. He cited examples of government waste, such as the Department of Defense‘s inability to account for trillions of dollars and the revelation that only six percent of federal employees work a full 40-hour week.
The conversation takes a darker turn as the panelists discussed the IRS’s role as a tool of control and fear. Mottahedeh described the IRS as a corrupt system designed to enslave Americans, deterring them from standing up for their rights. He recounted instances where IRS agents have illegally leaked private tax information to the media, targeting political enemies.
According to Banister, the complexity of the tax code and the IRS’s often unlawful tactics create a climate of fear and ignorance among taxpayers. He believes the income tax system is a form of terrorism, paralyzing Americans with fear and preventing them from understanding their rights.
Adams asked about the benefits of eliminating the federal income tax. Banister envisions a rejuvenated America, free from the fear and burden of the IRS. He believes the income tax system is a relic of the past, a remnant of a bygone era that no longer serves the interests of the American people.
Mottahedeh offered a practical solution through his program, the Restore Freedom Plan. The program encourages Americans to unite and legally challenge the income tax system.
He proposed a fund where participants contribute to support litigation efforts, ensuring that no one faces financial ruin for resisting the IRS. Mottahedeh emphasized that his motivation is not financial gain, but a desire to restore freedom and justice to America.
As the interview concluded, Banister urged Americans to seize the opportunity presented by Trump’s presidency. He called for a collective effort to end the income tax, emphasizing the importance of caring for one’s neighbors and standing up for freedom. He believes embracing a mindset of service and sacrifice is crucial for achieving this goal.
Mottahedeh echoed Banister’s sentiments, expressing his hope that ending the income tax will be a significant step towards restoring America’s founding principles. He encouraged Americans to educate themselves and take action, reminding them that the fight for freedom is a noble and worthwhile endeavor.
