United states tax collector
Chapter 361 Promise
Raglan's meaning is actually very simple. If he sides with David, then the Freemasons will definitely regard him as a thorn in their side and will definitely hinder him in the mid-term elections.
By then, it's hard to say whether he can keep his position, let alone push for this bill.
"You don't have to worry about this. As long as you are willing to stand by me and behave to my satisfaction, let alone this midterm election, it is not impossible for you to become the second Leahy in the future!"
According to the U.S. Constitution, members of Congress have no term limits.
This means that as long as this congressman can be elected in every election, he can be re-elected until his death.
The Leahy that David is talking about is the senator who has served eight terms as a senator since 1975 and is also the longest-serving senator.
"Oh? Inspector General David, the Senate is not an ordinary place. Why are you so confident?"
Raglan's expression changed. As a member of the Senate, he certainly knew about the legendary figure Leahy.
In fact, almost every member of the current Senate is eager to replicate the history of this legendary figure.
But it is a pity that the Senate, as the highest legislative body in the country, is a battleground for all major forces, and there are only 100 seats. It can be said to be a carrot and a pit, so let alone trying to replicate Leahy's feat, can You are lucky to be re-elected successfully.
So even though he knew that David was very capable, he still raised questions after hearing the other party's tone.
David smiled, took out a few documents from the inner pocket of his suit, and then threw them in front of Raglan.
Since he decided to come to Raglan, he naturally made some preparations in advance, and the content in these documents was dirty information about several of the opponent's competitors in the state.
"What's this?"
Raglan glanced at the documents, and then asked with a hint of confusion.
"You'll know if you take a look."
Raglan frowned slightly, but still took the file on the table, opened it and looked at it.
But as the contents inside came into view, his expression gradually became surprised.
Yes, the content of the document is exactly some dirty information about his competitors.
The mid-term elections are about to begin now. If these contents are exposed at this juncture, his competitors may be ruined, not to mention fighting with him.
While thinking, Raglan seemed to think of something again, and his expression suddenly darkened.
The reason is simple. Since David can collect dirty information about his competitors at this juncture, will he also be able to collect it?
He considers himself to be relatively clean, but now is the mid-term election period, and it is not just honesty that will lead to successful re-election.
David only needs to expose any negative news about him, which will cause his approval rating to plummet, and other competitors will reap the benefits.
"What about Senator Raglan, are these things enough to give you a chance of being re-elected?"
"Yes, but it's just this midterm election. If you want to do Leahy's sake, it's not enough!"
"Senator Raglan, I have shown my sincerity now, but you haven't given me a clear answer yet. Is it too much to bargain with me like this?"
Raglan's expression suddenly became awkward.
After seeing David come up with dirty information about his competitor, he did have some scruples and didn't want to go against David anymore, so he started negotiating to see if he could get more benefits.
"Don't worry, Senator Raglan, I will never treat my own people badly. As long as you choose to stand by me and help me promote this bill, I will naturally do my best to help you with your future term. Of course, if there comes a day when I can't help you, you can leave on your own and there is no need to stand by me anymore."
David said very confidently.
After hearing this, Raglan thought for a while, and finally said with a grimace on his face and gritted his teeth: "In this case, then I am willing to stand on your side, but Director David, you must give me a guarantee, no matter what happens, , you must keep me and my family safe!”
Although this bill currently seems difficult to promote, wealthy groups such as the Freemasons, Angsa Illuminati, and others are indeed terrifying.
But after all, the IRS has people, money, power, and most importantly, military power, and the Kennedy family, an established family, is assisting.
Coupled with the current reputation and ability of Inspector General David, there is really no chance of winning.
But this is actually not the most critical thing for him. The most critical thing is that since Inspector General David can collect dirty information about his competitors, if he dares not to agree today, with this method, this He probably won't win the next midterm election.
Based on all the above, Raglan finally made up his mind to take a gamble.
David showed satisfaction, stood up, walked to Raglan, stretched out his right hand and said, "I promise you, Senator Raglan, no matter what happens, I will protect you!"
After hearing David's assurance, Raglan nodded with relief and extended his right hand as well.
…
"Director, if the Freemasons know that Raglan is on our side and want him to be re-elected, it will not be an easy matter. Are you... really sure?"
In the car, Munson, who was driving the vehicle, asked cautiously.
"Since I dare to make this guarantee, I am naturally confident."
"All right……"
Although he still had doubts, seeing that David didn't look like he wanted to elaborate, Munson had the sense and didn't continue to ask any more questions.
On the west side of Tallahassee, in a mid-range community called The Moore.
At this time, the vehicle driven by Munson drove in and parked in a European-style house.
Then David got out of the car, came to the door of the building and rang the doorbell.
The door was quickly opened.
A girl about 20 years old appeared in front of the door, but when she saw that the person coming was David, the girl was frightened just like Raglan's wife before.
"We are here to see Senator Alchebe. Is he at home?"
There are a total of two senators in Florida. David has already secured one, so now it is the turn of the last one.
As long as these two senators are dealt with, it will be much easier to deal with the state's representatives.
The girl did not answer, but turned around stiffly, looked towards the living room behind her, and asked: "Dad, Inspector General David of the IRS is here to see you."
"Let him in!"
"Please come in!"
David and others were not polite and walked into the house.
In the living room, I saw a man with thick eyebrows sitting on the sofa with a woman.
Seeing the arrival of David and others, the woman was able to remain calm. She stood up and asked, "Director David, Inspector General, do you want something to drink?"
"Just give us a glass of water, thank you."
"OK."
The woman stepped aside.
"Director David, it's a blessing to see you safe."
The senator named Acerbi also stood up, shook hands with David and others one by one, and then asked: "I wonder what Inspector General David has come to see me for?"
"Senator Acerbi, the main purpose of coming here today is to talk to you about something."
This senator was also sponsored by the Kennedy family in the previous election. Like Raglan, he found another way out after seeing David's death and the disaster approaching for the Kennedy family. However, he did not join the Freemasons. , but from the Angsa Group.
"What's up?"
David first activated the golden finger to examine the other party, and then said without hesitation: "That's it, I plan to..."
David repeated to Raglan exactly what he had said to him before.
After hearing that David came to see him early not because he had defected to the Angsa Group, but to promote such a bill, Acerbi suddenly felt a turmoil in his heart.
After a while, he calmed down, then looked at David and said, "Inspector General David, I have to say that your idea is very bold, but such a bold idea will probably destroy you!"
"I'm not afraid. I wonder, Senator Acerbi, are you afraid?"
"Of course I'm afraid. Such a bill is no joke. Once it is pushed forward, I don't know how many people want to kill me, but I won't do it."
Acerbi did not hide his thoughts, but directly expressed his concerns and waved his hands repeatedly.
"Don't be so anxious to reject it now, Senator Acerbi, let's take a look at this and then talk about it!"
David took out some more documents and placed them in front of him.
After hesitating for a while, Acerbi finally took it and checked it, but soon he showed the same shocked expression as Raglan before.
"What does it mean?"
"The midterm elections are about to begin. This is a small gift from me to Senator Acerbi. I hope you can be re-elected successfully!"
"Your gift is indeed a good one for me, but I'm afraid the price I'll have to pay after taking it will be even greater!"
Although he knew that the dirty information on his competitors provided by David was very useful to him, he was not a fool and would definitely help David if he got it.
"Senator Acerbi, I don't think Senator Raglan agrees with what you say!"
"What, you talked to Raglan?"
Acerbi's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe it.
"Yes, I just came from his house."
Acerbi's face darkened, because he could tell from David's tone that the price offered to Raglan by the other party was probably the same as his, and Raglan must have agreed!
"Senator Acerby, I know you have been working hard to promote a 'relief bill' in Florida. If you stand with me and complete this bill for me, then I guarantee that your bill will It will definitely pass. When the time comes, you will have fulfilled the high expectations of your fellow villagers and will also receive huge reputation points!”
David looked at Alchebi and said.
Acerbi also looked directly into his eyes, and after looking at each other for a full minute, he said: "If I don't agree, will you provide my competitors with dirty information about me? "
"Senator Acerbi, I come to talk to you about this matter with my sincerity today. If you agree, I promise that you will not be hurt or disadvantaged. But if you don't agree, Then I don’t think you need to occupy the senator’s position, let’s let someone with the ability take the position!”
David's words can be regarded as courtesy first and then fighting.
At this time, Acerbi secretly clenched his fists. David could get the dirt on his competitor, but he himself didn't believe that he couldn't get it.
If it was any other time, it would be fine. The key is that now is the critical moment of the mid-term election. Any negative news would be enough to make him lose everything.
After thinking for a long time, Acerbi didn't dare to say no again. Instead, he changed the subject and said, "Although you provided me with these materials, if the Ansa people knew that I was leaning towards you, they might interfere. I might not be able to win the re-election with a sure win."
As a congressman, the most important thing is political resources and campaign funds.
If he dared to stand on David's side, with the strength of the Ansa people, there would definitely be ways to interfere with his campaign.
"I told Senator Raglan before that as long as he agrees to lend me a hand, I am absolutely sure that he will be re-elected. Even if he wants to, I can make him the next Leahy. Now, I also give this sentence to you, Senator Acerbi!"
Hearing David's confident words, Acerbi was stunned again.
Become the next Leahy?
This is a very arrogant statement.
If it came from someone else, he would naturally not believe it.
But this statement came from David, which is worth discussing.
After all, this Inspector General David's ability to frame people is indeed extraordinary. He can even get the black material of his competitors.
If he wants to run for election again in the future.
As long as this Inspector General David can continue to get the black material of his other opponents, then in theory his senator's throne can indeed be guaranteed.
But...
After all, the IRS is a national institution. If you want to support his election, it is not enough to have secret means, you need campaign funds.
But the IRS certainly cannot provide this money openly.
How does this Inspector General David plan to solve it?
Thinking of this, Acerbi couldn't help but ask: "Inspector General David, how do you plan to solve the issue of campaign funds?"
"It's simple. I will be the peacemaker and you and the Kennidi family will reconcile!"
"Okay, then I have only one last question. Your bill is not enough for me and Raglan alone. If you can deal with more congressmen and successfully draft it in Congress and pass the vote of the House of Representatives, then when it reaches the Senate, what's wrong with me really voting for you!"
