Another Republican Lie Is Born

[MarathonMike]

One of the great mysteries of modern times is why the tard herd keeps going back to the same propagandists over and over and over to be lied to.

They BEG to be lied to, and so they DESERVE to be lied to.

The Democrats presented Biden as a MODERATE President. How truthful was that? Biden is way Left of Obama. Don't talk to me about Republican "lies".

One more time.

Those 87,000 “agents” are actually EMPLOYEES, to be hired over the next ten years to replace those that retired and those lost. Through recent budget cuts.

And most of those employees will be customer service reps and IT FOLKS

so cool your jets

Another Republican lie is born

Let’s consider the lie, endlessly repeated by Republicans and the Fox News-led echo chamber, that new legislation enacted by Democrats funds the hiring of “87,000 armed IRS agents.” Like the “death panel” fabrication during the Obamacare debate, this is a whole-cloth invention designed to stoke paranoia.

Sen. Rick Scott (Fla.), head of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, sent an open letter last week warning Americans not to work for the IRS. He falsely claimed that the Democrats’ climate, energy and tax bill would add “roughly 87,000 agents” at the IRS, creating “an IRS super-police force”:

“The IRS made it very clear that one of the ‘major duties’ of these new positions is to ‘be willing to use deadly force.’ … The IRS is making it very clear that you not only need to be ready to audit and investigate your fellow hardworking Americans, your neighbors and friends, you need to be ready and, to use the IRS’s words, willing, to kill them.”

The IRS certainly isn’t adding 87,000 armed agents. It isn’t even adding 87,000 agents. In fact, it’s not even adding 87,000 employees.

When you figure in attrition (current funding doesn’t let the IRS fill all vacancies), Treasury officials tell me, the expected increase in personnel would be more like 40,000, over the course of a decade — which would merely restore IRS staffing to around the 117,000 it had in 1990.

Only about 6,500 of the new hires would be “agents.” The rest would be customer-service representatives, data specialists and the like.

And fewer than 1 percent of the new hires would be armed.

AP News said last week that they are expecting IRS employees to retire.
A scenario that looks less and less likely due to inflation.

On an outside sentence. The globalists do want a digital cyber currency. They may be trying to install one at some point.

Yeah cause we know over the past 6 years the Democrats haven't been perpetually creating lies.

WaPo op-ed? Couldn't you find a legit source?

That's the standard response when Trumpleton's can't refute a word of an article.

The IRS is not hiring thousands of armed agents, job ads show opening for specialized unit

Social media users are claiming that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is hiring 87,000 new armed IRS agents. This claim is false. The job listing being shared is for IRS Criminal Investigation Special Agents, and currently only about 2,100 special agents carry firearms, according to IRS’s...

No mystery.

It’s who and what conservatives are – that’s what the dishonest right does: spread misinformation and lies.

Good grief, how pathetic is it that you have to defend this shit? Yes, the IRS is adding 87,000 positions. No, it’s not from people retiring or leaving. Those positions are automatically budgeted to be filled.

Then trying to downplay it by claiming it’s not actually 87,000 Agents. Yea so that includes support staff, big deal. They are ALL there to expand the IRS and start raiding the political enemies of the Democratic Regime.

 

[whitehall]

Even if the estimates of newly hired armed IRS agents are (only) around 6,000 to 10,000, tell me again why it's good news for Americans?

Yeah, they'd rather tell the rubes that evil commie Hitler IRS agents are going to slaughter them with machine guns.

They know they rubes will swallow it.

Link to that bullshit. Prove that retired employees are automatically replaced with out appropriations

I’m not disputing your post. My point is the right media misrepresents facts to enrage their followers and the left media does the same to their followers. Divisive shit to keep the duopoly hating each other.

Please tell you know Russiagate was a hoax promoted by the left media and D party for years?

 

[theHawk]

Bullshit? A government position that exists is funded. It doesn’t matter who occupies it or if they leave. Unless the agency proactively eliminates the position, it will still be there. I worked for the federal government for 20 years, this is how it has always been.

Guno gunna lie.

And his little dog Mac is going to run behind him eating his turds as he shits all over the board.

It's just the nature of the fascist left.

You're still not reading AP News?!

Who are all supporting tens of thousands of new agents to terrorize the US population.
