Conservatives go after their own on IRS fight

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

A conservative group focused on pressuring House Democrats to oppose President Biden's plan to increase funding for the Internal Revenue Service is now targeting fellow Republicans, Axios has learned.

Why it matters: By running a six-figure ad targeting Sen. Jerry Moran (R-Kan.), the Coalition to Protect American Workers is opening a new front in the fight over how to pay for Biden’s spending proposals, including the $579 billion bipartisan infrastructure package.

“If Joe Biden gets his way, they are coming: IRS agents,” the ad begins. It closes with, “We need Senator Moran to step up and stop Biden’s radical plan.”

Moran was the last Republican to join the so-called G20, a group of 20 senators working to reach an infrastructure compromise with the White House. His addition rebranded the group the G21.

2. All the IRS is charged with is enforcing tax laws, not making them. Idiots.

3. Radical my ass. IRS just needs enough staff to do its job.

And its job is to make people pay the goddamned taxes they owe, even rich people. I've had to pay back taxes, penalties and interest, by god, so can they.

7. I see an effective IRS as a way to stop some of that "waste, fraud and abuse" they carry on about.

9. They sure have a limited vocabulary, don't they?

Everything is "radical" or "left-wing" or both.

4. Anyone who pays their taxes doesn't have to worry about it.

Stupid ad. Just don't cheat.

5. I'll show you my IRS audits if you'll show yours first. "You can't see my taxes, they're under audit

Is pure bullshit.
