I have no idea of the validity or the actual numbers, but I read/heard that the money spent on the 87k new IRS agents is greater than the actual amount of unpaid taxes that they estimate to exist. Supposedly, the numbers are not even close.

i don’t want government to expand in any capacity, even to control our southern border. Send the military to defend the border, and let them use their weapons. The invasion will quickly stop.

“There are 1.4 million backlog, right now, of last year’s tax returns that still need to be done.”

Sounds like a good argument that we need to simplify the tax code, if the IRS can’t even manage to process all the returns in 365 days.

Democrats love the IRS and love to control and tax people, notice not one democrat in the last 50 years ever voted or proposed to lower taxes. Remember obama democrat Lois Lerner, went after conservatives and conservative groups, since she was a democrat, nothing happened to her.

Performative politics...it won’t get past the Senate.

They can go back to their constituents at election time and say ‘See I tried”...that’s how the game is played. I hope they don’t waste 2 years on investigations that will generate TV time but produce little of consequence. What they can accomplish is going to be questionable anyway given the narrow margins in both houses. I wish it were otherwise but it isn’t.

“...Christine Romans had a hissy fit over House Republicans voting to gut the $80 billion IRS funding...”

Why bother? He knows it’s a symbolic move intended to fire up the base but accomplish nothing.
