Secret recording: Oath Keepers leader wanted to warn Trump of upcoming 'combat here on US soil' | CNN Politics
In a secretly recorded meeting days after January 6, 2021, Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes allegedly tried to issue a warning to then-President Donald Trump, urging him to invoke the Insurrection Act and warning there would be "combat here on US soil."www.cnn.com
What difference does it make, if it's one brownshirts or a thousand?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.
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.
And it's fact, so Republican's OUGHT to believe it.Look at the absolute bullshit you believe.
Trump is saying he'll announce his candidacy on November 14.

Guno is lying.What difference does it make, if it's one brownshirts or a thousand?
If you add up the lies by both parties to win, it comes in at a figure higher than the national debt.Another Republican lie is born

Why does the IRS have 4600 guns and 5 million rounds of ammunition?Republicans believe this tripe.

87,000 by 2031.There won't be 87,000. That's a lie. Some IRS agents are aging out. They have to be replaced.
87,000 by 2031.
You upset the GOP spun it into a pre-election issue?
Only the Godless would be concerned with religious values.
Nothing now. They toast.Why does the IRS have 4600 guns and 5 million rounds of ammunition?
Any breakdown of what those 87,000 employees will be doing?
Not sure about that, the bill passed.Nothing now. They toast.
I saw a news story that said the house killed it.Not sure about that, the bill passed.
It's part of the bill Manchin got his way on, the inflation reduction act, it passed both houses in August,12th and 16th I think.I saw a news story that said the house killed it.
Its the side effect of folks without actual principles. They feel fully justified in lying (or not caring if their claims are true) because they accuse democrats of lying.Another Republican lie is born
