Joe Biden weaponized the Justice Department against Donald Trump and Trump supporters; it should come as no surprise that on his way out the door, he decided to weaponize the IRS against incoming Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.
Hegseth revealed on Monday afternoon that the Biden administration flagged him for an IRS audit. “Of course the outgoing Biden IRS rushed an ‘audit’ of the incoming SecDef,” he wrote in a post on X. “Total sham. The party of ‘norms’ and ‘decency’ strikes again. We will never back down.”
According to the document, the family’s federal income tax return indicated they owed the federal government $33,558.16, which they paid right away to prevent additional penalties.
Hegseth was one of the first people Trump nominated to serve in his administration. "I am honored to announce that I have nominated Pete Hegseth to serve in my Cabinet as The Secretary of Defense. Pete has spent his entire life as a Warrior for the Troops, and for the Country. Pete is tough, smart, and a true believer in America First," Trump said in a statement on Nov. 12, 2024.
Hegseth, a veteran of the Army National Guard, was previously flagged as a possible “Insider Threat” and ordered to stand down from Joe Biden’s inauguration back in 2021.
The Associated Press reported that 12 U.S. National Guard members were removed from helping to secure Mr. Biden's 2021 inauguration after vetting by the U.S. military and FBI. They were found to have made extremist statements in posts or text messages or had ties with right-wing militia groups. In an interview with podcaster Shawn Ryan, Hegseth said he was one of the National Guard members removed from securing the inauguration.

Biden and company were hog poo.
I remember when the press was all pearl clutching about Nixon possibly using the IRS to go after his enemies. Now here we are.
I remember Lois Lerner and targeting conservatives under Obama.
And Bill Clinton did the same thing.
Remember, Joe Biden was/is a vegetable.
That's the problem with deep-state rule by committee and fed.gov apparatchik
All kinds of vandalism can be done in secret and nobody has any control over it.
It really wasn’t Biden but his puppets
May God grant Trump to overcome evil with success beyond his wildest dreams. For success is better than vengeance any day.
Of course, if our new Attorney General should take notice of the worst of evils...
The Democrats freaking out will be legendary.
John McCain encouraged Lois Lerner to audit conservatives.
“McCain’s office urged IRS to use audits as weapons to destroy political advocacy groups”
