As if we needed evidence that the working class are simply seen as moveable, interchangeable pawns by the moneyed class.

IRS agents already carry guns.

"As Federal Law Enforcement agents, CI special agents execute search and arrest warrants, have statutory support to carry firearms. 1 Each special agent is issued an IRS owned handgun. Their handguns should be readily accessible when performing enforcement actions."

maxkennerly.bsky.social•32 days ago

I just love Fox News characterizing it as Trump "explaining the Great Depression rocked the U.S. shortly after moving away from the tariff system..."

Sure, great, awesome, he was "explaining" by saying a thing that is untrue.

Might as well have him "explaining the Moon is made of cheese."

I’m pretty sure you’re not allowed to talk about the cheese situation in public because the EO declassifying the moon landing hasn’t been signed yet.

Aside from this being a bit off there's an omission here. This talks about tariffs, then taxes. What we're looking at is tariffs AND taxes.

If we're going to arm IRS agents, maybe a better use of them would be to try to make a dent in the ~700+B/yr of unpaid taxes.

In the 2000 HBO film, "Conspiracy," about the 1942 Wannsee conference where they plot to use Jewish slaves to build roads and other hard labor. One of the conferees lists off the industries they previously worked and notes, "All building roads? None of them lifted anything heavier than a pencil."

In a way, that's what this sounds like. A bunch of tax accountants patrolling the border with guns for which they are completely unfit to do.

It's dumber than you think.

I suspect this number is the 10 year hiring estimate for IRS funding from Biden's inflation reduction act.

So, short version, the vast majority of these people don't exist.
