GOP wants answers on IRS' $700K ammo stockpile as Dems OK $80B for agency enforcement


[NYPOST] Congressional Republicans want to know just what the Internal Revenue Service intends to do with the $700,000 worth of ammunition it recently added to its 5-million-round stockpile — as Democrats voted to give the agency $80 billion for stepped-up enforcement.

"If the Department of Justice will politically target President Trump and raid his home, I can assure you that the current Administration is willing to target his supporters," Texas Rep. Michael Cloud told Fox News.

Cloud and 30 other House conservatives, including Mo Brooks of Alabama, Lauren Boebert of Colorado, Louie Gohmert of Texas and Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, wrote to IRS
...the Internal Revenue Service; that office of the United States government that collects taxes and persecutes the regime's political enemies...
Commissioner Charles Rettig Friday to express concern that the agency’s new muscle, passed on a party-line vote as part of the Dems’ Inflation Reduction Act, "will be used to scare and threaten law-abiding Americans."

#1 They intend to start raiding homes of "tax cheats". Forgot formal notifications if you owe taxes. Trumps Maralargo was the start. Confiscate and incarcerate.

#2 By taking a Congressman's cell phone (to green his contacts on the right) they are coming after right wing politicians.

Tyranny will be implemented by the President who successfully stole the last "Presidential Election" through criminal election fraud they will put a gun to your head if you do not obey.

#3 Sen. Warren wants to expand IRS powers beyond the Inflation Reduction Act to prepare tax returns

#4 It's all the Right's fault. I blame them. They had years to do unto the Left what they shoulda known was going to be done to them. Even if, by some miracle, they come to power, even DJT or DeSantis whatever, they still won't. No, they'll take the high 'constitutional' road. And they'll be impeached for racism or 'me too' or just twenty-fived for fcuk's sake! By the entrenched Islamists, by black power types, the mobocrats, by unhinged neocons prodded by the LSDs. LSDs who just deserve to be dragged out of their beds in the night, bundled up in black vans and buried en masse.

#5 When the right takes congress and the White House again (yeah, I know) they can sell all this ammo off just like the left did with our strategic oil reserves. The screeching should be heavenly to non-lefty ears.

#6 

Using AmmoSeek.com pricing, and $700K divided across Federally used Ammo calibers.

It would get about 2.1 Million total rounds of Ammo.
Yep! the IRS will be well ammo'd ???? to collect taxes?????

Maybe the LSD's will reinstitution of the politically abused "POLL TAX" and the IRS will be there to collect as you vote.

But then again, we could just ask the LSD's what happened to the estimated 250M rounds that Obama purchased, to keep it out of the citizenry hands.

Google "Obama Ammo Purchases" for a loooooong list.

#7 Probably has little to do with the IRS. Suspect we'll soon learn a new Federal law enforcement agency is being established to protect us from insurrectionists, environmental violations, and hate speech.

#10 I think Joe likes the way the oil strategic reserve has worked out. Either that or they are just a bunch of preppers.
