I am proud to announce that the number of former IRS officials who have openly and publicly lent their voices to the chorus of professionals and citizens who believe that the IRS is knowingly misapplying the federal income tax laws has now reached the size of a basketball team.

If recent developments are any indication, the basketball-sized “truth team” of former IRS officials will soon grow to the size of a “football team”, and later to the size of a “football stadium”.

The newest member is Clifton Beale. Clifton spent nearly 19 years with the Internal Revenue Service. He was an IRS Revenue Agent from November, 1979 through August 1987, and an IRS Appeals Officer from August, 1987 to September, 1998.

Among his many accomplishments, Clifton is an accomplished author and has a Master’s Degree in Taxation. Clifton has three grown children and four grandchildren.

According to Clifton’s website (www.cliftonbeale.com), he is a strong believer in complying with the rules and regulations of the United States Code, Constitution, Supreme Court cases still in force and other Positive Laws registered in the U.
