Breitbart-
Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) on Monday introduced legislation that would sell off millions of dollars of the Internal Revenue Service’s (IRS) firearms to pay for the national debt.
As America approaches Tax Day on Tuesday, Ernst introduced the Why Does the IRS Needs Guns Act to reform how the agency handles firearms. The Iowa senator introduced the legislation after reports from Open the Books have suggested the IRS would one of the top 50 largest police departments based on its headcount and stockpiling of firearms and ammunition.
“Why is the IRS wasting millions of our tax dollars stockpiling guns and ammo?” Ernst asked rhetorically in a written statement.
She continued, “This is especially concerning, given the history of partisan witch hunts within the agency, and the fact it is more common for IRS agents to accidentally fire their weapon, than to do so intentionally. I am selling off the agency’s firearms, using the proceeds to pay down the bloated national debt, and recommending firearm safety courses for these tax collectors.” more here
Let’s see an inventory list.
I’m in.
none of that 4473 ******-bullshit
Don’t stop there. The USDA, and COUNTLESS other federal agencies are armed to the teeth against the US citizenry. Go after the tens of thousands of IRS agents who OWE BACK TAXES TOO!!!! THAT is a bigger story.
Never used, only dropped a few times in Starbux…
One of the reasons they bought up ammo is to cause shortages for the civilian market. I would imagine that they figured they needed guns in order to justify having the ammo.
And they probably figured that those 80,000 new IRS agents needed to be armed to hunt down those 759 billionaires who were wreaking such havoc in the US.
Sign me up.
And concur: the rest of the alphabet agencies need to be disarmed.
0bama was buying Remington shotguns for the Post Office.
Spectacular idea. And, ditto Mr. Liberty.
(And when is the Obama’s security clearance going to be revoked?}
Where did the IRS get the money to buy firearms? Unless I’m mistaken it came from congress. Where did congress get the money to give to the IRS? Unless I’m mistaken it came from the taxpayers. I don’ trust Joni or any of the bastards in congress to decide where or how to spend taxpayer money. Why are we in a debt? FU CONGRESS!!!
I want the Lois Lerner special edition gat.
Q) Why did Biden FAIL to send all of the weapons and associated SWAT teams from all federal agencies to Ukraine?
A) Hunter could not figure out how to turn it into a grift.
How about the DO education, DO energy,DO Agriculture, NOAA, DO Commerce, NASA, the BLM, the list goes on. Why did the department of education need a swat team anyway?

^^^^Why did the department of education need a swat team anyway?” To go up agains’t heavily armed soccer moms at school board meetings.
As I remember, back when Barry was busy arming up these formerly passive institutions, the two largest recipients of weapons were the Social Security Administration, and The L.A County School District.
And it was done with the intent of creating domestic security force as powerful as our military. Thanks obama, you stinking bastard!
Maybe there will be some tommy guns and BARs left over from the 1920’s.
Full auto weapons are hard to sell as very few people have the proper clearance to purchase.
NOAA needs guns to fight climate change
Happy April 15th
I guess after the IRS takes your house for back taxes, they’ll hold an AR to your head to pay the next year.
A pissed off taxpayer who has been shown where our taxes have been spent. We haven’t seen or heard of all the fraud & corruption.
CORRUPT EXTORTION SCAM.
When will DOGE start looking at corruption and fraud at the FBI??? They’ve got a HUGE arsenal they expected to use against Republicans, Give the over-run to the Military.
How bout we repeal the 16th and disband the IRS?
If we don’t want to do that we could sell the IRS agents on the Chinese slave market.
Probably net a couple of dollars …
