Do you trust the IRS to keep your personal information safe?
No matter how you answer that question, you'll soon be forced to surrender even more information to the giant federal tax agency.
Reports began to surface last week that the IRS will begin requiring users to submit a "video selfie" in order to access their own online account. If that doesn't work, users will then have to join a video call with a "trusted referee" to "answer a few questions," according to the Daily Signal.
The private company the IRS is using to collect this information will be granted the right to use the videos to collect biometric data, including voiceprints and facial geometry recognition.

An Article V Convention of States is called and controlled by the states and has the power to propose constitutional amendments. These amendments can shrink the size and scope of the federal government, force them to slash the budget, and impose term limits on federal officials.
Here's what that means in plain English: a Convention of States can defund the federal government, including the IRS.
