The Senate voted Thursday to confirm Daniel Werfel, the former acting commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service, to lead the IRS.
He was approved on a bipartisan 54-42 vote.
Werfel’s confirmation to the agency comes after he was grilled by the Senate Committee on Finance last month on how he plans to utilize the money in new funding coming to the IRS over the next decade to revitalize the tax agency as taxpayers could see increased audit rates. Democrats approved the $80 billion for the agency last year when they approved the Inflation Reduction Act in a party-line vote. Democrats backed the funding in its bid to crack down on tax dodgers and to provide better services for taxpayers, arguing that the IRS could boost federal revenue by more than $100 billion over the 10-year time period if they collect more in taxes...

Oh, wait a minute...
The US Senate HATES the US as does Obama/Biden.
Beat me by a few minutes. I was about to post the same for dfw LOL
Finally something he’s good at!....................
They’re going to do the “fun & gun” on their political opponents.
Manchin voted against him.
Those voting for him included the usual suspects ...
Bill Cassidy (R-La.)
Susan Collins (R-Maine)
Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa)
Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska)
Thom Tillis (R-N.C.)
Todd Young (R-Ind.)
... a bipartisan 54-42 vote ...
I presume the usual RINOs.
And the Republican traitors are again:
Cassidy (LA)
Collins (ME)
Grassley (IA)
Tillis (NC)
Young (IN)
with the following not voting:
McConnell (KY)
Risch (ID)
96 total votes.
No Senator Vegetable
No Senator Frankenfeinstein
I’m going to guess: Collins, Murkowski, Pierre Delecto, Miss Lindsey, Cassidy. Not sure who the 2 wild card losers are.
Ah, my guess was close. Not sure how I could have ever forgotten Tillis. Young and Grassley were not on my RINO Bingo card, but I’m not really surprised.
and the “cow” Murkowski.... hard to believe she even claims to be a republican.
The new dance craze will be the 87,000 Agent Shuffle.
The use of Bi-partisanship means... along the lines of the J6 Pelosi-Cheney Committee, and now the Uni-Globalist-Party of Rs & Ds that have taken over the USA, its governance, all fed departments and national institutions, such as academia, medicine & research, religion, etc. etc. etc.
Can we take bets on who will be audited? I’m betting those who have around 100,000 per year or less.
Grassley surprises me, but not Young necessarily.
"No, Senator. The taxpayers will not see increased audit rates. That is just a pernicious myth! The money will go into the pockets of Democrats, just as it was planned from day one."
Add to that, the usual GOP circle jerk in the House where those turds are spinning wheels and tilting at nonsensical windmills...
What did anybody with half a brain expect?
The normal GOP circle jerk took about 3-day to get underway...
GOP history of the past 60 years (except most issues related to the SCOTUS) is one of ineptness, surrender, & deceit...
At least, during such periods, the communists only get 60% of their nefarious schemes into law or regulation...
