Deep State Dreams: IRS As Nat'l Police Force

Since the US has no sizeable national police force--the Constitution prevents that--Democrat-Totalitarian dreams of a Cheka-like suppression gang will have to be realized with a muscled-up IRS.

If Democrats have their way, one of the most detested federal agencies—the Internal Revenue Service—will employ more bureaucrats than the Pentagon, State Department, FBI, and Border Patrol combined.

Under the Inflation Reduction Act negotiated by Sen. Joe Manchin (D., W.Va.), the agency would receive $80 billion in funding to hire as many as 87,000 additional employees. The increase would more than double the size of the IRS workforce, which currently has 78,661 full-time staffers, according to federal data....

Those agents--and their 5 million rounds of ammo--will not be pointing their guns at The Rich, who have hordes of lawyers and who 'influenced' lawmakers to insert loopholes favoring The Rich.

Nope.

They'll be looking at people earning less than $200K, starting with a thorough review of your social media and networking activities (maybe you're a domestic terrorist!!!), then checking on your deductions, looking for un-reported income, and--of course--placing liens.  Remember that to the IRS, there is no such thing as 'a mistake.'  And they don't take IOU's without placing a lien on your home, or snatching your entire bank account.

Object to that?

What do you think that 5 million rounds of ammo is really for?  Duck hunting?

Oh, and by the way:  the Republicans will NOT reverse this funding if they gain a majority.  They, too, like having shock troops handy, in case someone displays a Gadsden flag someplace.  Deep State is bi-partisan.
