    The Inflation Reduction Act the Democrats passed a couple years back gave the IRS money to actually go after the wealthy, which is what we’re seeing here.

    And of course the goddamn scum of the earth propagandists screamed “the Democrats are funding the IRS to COME AFTER YOU!!” And we now have a talking point about how the IRS needs to be defunded to “protect the little guy.” It’s so disgusting… I hate these people so much.
