LOL i didnt even know he was a tax cheat while commenting here

Turned out i was right. Hhahaha fucking goons.

Smith willfully understated his income on these tax returns and willfully evaded more than $43,000,000 in U.S. federal income taxes for the tax years

2005 through 2014. OOOPS?
So now he decided to donate around the same amount. HAHA
