Holy Crapo Amendment! Dems Reject Middle Class Protection from Doubled IRS
[PJMedia] In rejecting the Crapo Amendment, Democrats tacitly admitted that their new nuclear-strength IRS has just one job: To wage war on everyone but their rich buddies.

It was a crazy weekend getting Presidentish Joe Biden’s massive Tax & Spend & Regulate bill* through the 50/50 Senate. Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) suspended COVID-19 testing rules and kept his superspreader voting event going all hours to ensure passage of the $700 billion boondoggle.

But when asked to include IRS protections for the poor and the middle class, Schumer and every other Democrat voted NO.

Republican Senator Mike Crapo of Idaho offered a very simple amendment to Biden’s $80 billion expansion of the IRS with 87,000 new agents. You might not have read about it in any of your favorite newspapers, and it’s a sure thing the network news ignored the Crapo Amendment completely.

#1 Of course not. Hurting the middle class with IRS audits is the whole idea. You think they were going to go after billion dollar corporations? LOLOLOLOL....

#2 How about a fair tax law and doing away with the IRS? Current bill provides welfare for bureaucrats and headaches for the rest of us. After all, we are paying for these newly minted bureaucrats.
