We’ve talked a lot about the upcoming $2,000 Stimulus Checks… We were also proud to cover the surprise =$1,776 Warrior Dividend checks that hit our Military late last year… But something that hasn’t been talked about much at all is the new $6,000 tax deduction coming to Seniors over age 65. Check this out: THANKS, TRUMP! How the new $6,000 senior tax deduction could affect millions of Americans over 65 https://t.co/dfIktK74vv — Rapid Response 47 (@RapidResponse47) January 15, 2026 CBS News added these details about how much that might end up saving on the bottom line: A new $6,000 tax deduction for Americans 65 and older could boost refunds for millions of older taxpayers, putting an average of about $670 more in their pockets this year, according to advocacy group AARP. But some older Americans could see far more. AARP notes that taxpayers in the 22% tax bracket — roughly those earning between $44,000 and the deduction’s $75,000 income cap — could save as much as $1,320 per person. “The benefits could be vast,” said Bill Sweeney, AARP’s senior vice president of government affairs, in a conference call Thursday. “The bonus deduction will run through 2028 — that is four years of immediate relief at a time when older Americans are facing really high costs.” The $670 figure is based on a 2025 analysis by the White House Council of Economic Advisers, which assessed the impact of the new deduction included in Republican lawmakers’ tax and spending law, known as the “big, beautiful bill” act. The tax break comes as seniors tell AARP they are struggling to keep pace with the rising cost of medicine, food and other basic expenses, said Nancy LeaMond, the group’s chief advocacy and engagement officer. “In focus groups last fall, we heard about people still working long after they thought they’d be retired,” she said. “Sometimes in the world we live in, $600 doesn’t sound like a lot, but we can tell you, based on conversations with our members, that it is a very, very significant help to them.” AARP officials expressed concern that some older Americans may miss out on the new senior deduction because they are unaware of the tax break, which takes effect for the 2025 tax season. The IRS will start accepting tax filings on Jan. 26. Who qualifies for the $6,000 senior deduction? People who turned 65 by Dec. 31, 2025, are eligible for the new deduction, according to the IRS. The deduction provides $6,000 for each qualifying individual, or $12,000 for married couples who both qualify. The tax break is subject to income limits. Single filers 65 and older qualify for the full $6,000 deduction if their modified adjusted gross income was below $75,000 last year, while married couples must earn less than $175,000 to receive the full $12,000. The deduction is reduced by six cents for every $1 above those thresholds, and is fully phased out for single filers earning more than $175,000 and married couples earning more than $250,000. I keep telling you….the table was set in 2025.  We had a lot of work to fix all the Biden messes and then set the stage for the Golden Age of American prosperity starting in 2026 and onward. We’re now entering that shift, and just like the famous graph showing the 14 different stages of a stock market cycle, we are currently in the “Disbelief” stage. We have been beaten down so long no one has any expectation it could ever truly be different. But heads up my friends….next comes Hope, and then Optimism, then Belief, Thrill and Euphoria.  I believe that’s roughly 2026-2028 or possibly through 2032 or even 2036 if we get someone like JD/Marco in there to keep this going.  (Or Trump 3rd. Term). Enjoy the ride!
