The IRS is hiring!

They had to pull the job posting when people brought to light their request for "people willing to carry a firearm and use deadly force". Why would a bunch of tax accountants need to carry firearms and use deadly force...... Oh, yeah... maybe because 87,000 new troops will not have enough administrative tasks to perform and they need to raid residential houses?





In 2021, those making $25,000 or less (often the young and elderly) were audited at a rate five times higher than everyone else. The wealthier you are the more likely it is that you can hire lawyers and accountants to work within the system. There aren't enough millionaires and billionaires in the world to keep a potential new 87,000 IRS employees busy.

80 battalions of new IRS cops

the IRS is looking for special agents who can "carry a firearm and be willing to use deadly force

There are other overlooked aspects of the Democrats' IRS expansion. The bill, for instance, strengthens the federal public-sector union monopoly that funds Democrats' political aspirations. IRS and Treasury Department employees spent 353,820 hours engaged in union activism – their PAC gives every cent to the Democrats – in 2019. One can imagine what another 87,000 employees would do for that effort. In the real world, laundering taxpayer funds through unions and using them on political campaigns is called racketeering.



Don't Believe the White House's Promises About Who the New IRS Will Audit

reason.com...



As Liz Wolfe has reported repeatedly in the pages of Reason, none of these assurances live in the text of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) itself. One Republican amendment "to prevent the use of additional Internal Revenue Service Funds from being used for audits of taxpayers with taxable incomes below $400,000" was voted down on party lines. You'll just have to take Democrats' word for it.

That's good enough for many news organizations, who have been coughing up "fact-checks"


Why are they lying?



1) The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) predicts so.

2) The "tax gap" that the IRS seeks to close includes large amounts from the under-$400,000 club.

3) The Biden administration keeps wiggling when confronted with criticism about beefed-up enforcement.

I remember a couple of years ago when it was noted the IRS was severely short handed. Hiring more isn't surprising. My initial thoughts on this armed position have been that it's going to work directly with law enforcement to go after dangerous people who evade taxes, like Al Capone.

Do you know how many positions require someone to be armed? If it's a few, then perhaps the law enforcement arm needs specialists to work alongside them.

Not the best citation nor the worst.

Commentary is pointless.

Facts are not in evidence.

Some considerations to keep in mind.

The IRS need to hire more people. If you have ever need to do business with them, it's hard to get through and talk to anyone or get any assistance. They will be hiring taxpayer assistance people.

How many IRS jobs were lost over the last ten years?




The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) budget has been cut by 18 percent since 2010, after adjusting for inflation, and the agency has lost roughly 13,000 employees — around 14 percent of its workforce. These cuts have harmed customer service, frustrated honest taxpayers, and undermined critical enforcement efforts to combat tax avoidance and growing identity theft.

What is the actual likelihood of YOU being audited? The trite answer is if you aren't cheating, you don't have anything to fear from an audit other than the inconvenience. Seek out the facts - don't assume you know because someone tells you what to believe.

There are lots of valid questions about how this will affect us. Just screaming about it on partisan ideology is not rational.

Nice try. I don't think IRS agents actually go into the field while arests are being made. They stay out of the way then get the documentation.

No, that sounds funny too. Why would drug dealers and gangs keep records of their finances. Do they turn in business expens receipts for tax credit?

You know it's almost as if they were preparing for some sort of resistance to something...

ETA: Did I literally just read people advocating for this?!?!

Rather than advocating for the IRS's expansion you should be advocating it's destruction. Our ancestors fought and died in a revolution over a 2% tea tax. Act like it!!

What's the problem ?

It's not like there was a new Army™, on American soil, protecting the interests of the International-Banksters™ ...

May be a tad more threatening to your Democracy™, than those poor immigrants busting-though the southern border.

I think the truth lies somewhere in the middle. There's always been (some) armed ,well trained IRS agents. And while no, they're not gonna be a door kicker or holding an M1040 anytime soon. But if the investigation requires catching someone in the act, they could be close behind. And yes police and agents would try their best to clear the location before letting said agent inside, its not out of the realm of possibility that they miss a person. In which case the officers joining to agent need to know that the agent has the skill and wherewithal to handle themselves and have their backs.

Now that being said, those have to be very niche albeit real situations, and I don't believe for a moment that there going to make up their money only going after million and billionaires. 87k new employees (they won't be all agents) is a lot, and is scary.

I heard a story about a new business owner who opened up a brick and mortar. Then he got a bill for like 2 grand from the IRS who claimed he never paid taxes on new furniture, which he inevitably bought. Long story short, even though he bought cheap stuff off CL, he went on and paid it, it was easier and in the end cost him less.

My company has been audited twice. They found nothing both times, but it cost me approximately $5,000.00 to defend myself each time.

The democrats with their new special forcers IRS gestapo are expecting to reap additional 20b in revenue mostly from working class Americans and small businesses after audits.

This is why the democrats wants to expand the IRS, they need to scrape money from anywhere to keep looting the taxpayer with their global warming "initiatives" scam.

Democrats think that US working class makes too much money, soo we all need to be equal in poverty with all the illegals immigrating coming across the border.

Hopefuly they will be defunded once the house chance and back to the darn office with their lap top and calculators where they belong. Or just a few rule about where they can shove their weapons.

That's the point...that's how Al Capone was busted. Having a shell business and paying taxes prevents the IRS from proving tax evasion. Is it legal, no, but the IRS just wants their taxes to validate ones lifestyle.

You can bet your tax refund that your Black Life won't Matter when you are killed by IRS agents.

"Unarmed black father of two shot in the back by white IRS agents over tax dispute? Well, he should have paid his taxes."

Whatever happened to BLM anyway? They seemed to disappear after Biden was put into office and their leader bought that multi-million dollar mansion. Do you think they will be audited?

I agree with you entirely.

At the same time, I wonder what they're paying for someone with my skill set.
I could use the offer as leverage at my current employer, who will also collapse of the US government and/or FED crashes.

they definitely need more help
I just spent an hour calling and on their site
could not reach a single live person.
I called the number to make an appointment at my local office and they said call volume was too heavy so call later goodbye.

epic bad customer service.

A top order of business for the new Republican-led U.S. House, will be to reverse the addition of 87,000 new IRS enforcers and the thousands of guns Biden purchased for them.
