As the Biden administration continues its attempts to consolidate power within the federal government and among its leftist allies, there's a familiar face being tapped to lead Biden's effort to surge power, resources, and agents to the IRS — and she has quite the track record of working to target conservative groups and organizations.
One of Lois Lerner's lackeys from the Obama-era IRS scandal — one that saw the agency target conservative and tea party affiliated groups as a political arm of the Obama-Biden administration — will be leading the Biden administration's expansion of the IRS and stated goal of hiring 87,000 new agents.
Nikole Flax, who most recently served as the deputy commissioner in charge of the IRS' Large Business & International Division, has been with the IRS since 2008. According to IRS Commissioner Charles Rettig, Flax will be leading "the creation of a new, centralized office for implementation of all IRS-related provisions" outlined in the boondoggle falsely named the "Inflation Reduction Act." There's little Democrats love more than a chance to work on "centralized" anything within the federal government.
Flax will play a role in spending tens of billions of taxpayer dollars Congress handed to the IRS for, among other things, hiring tens of thousands of new agents for enforcement. In an agency-wide email sent to all IRS employees with the news, Flax excitedly said that the agency has "a unique, once-in-a-generation opportunity to transform the IRS in a way to help taxpayers and fundamentally improve our tax administration work that is vital to the success of our country." She also promised "we will be moving quickly with our work," despite the federal government's notoriously clumsy and ineffective bureaucracy.
