Elon Musk mocks Congress for hiring 87,000 new IRS employees
2022-08-12
[NYPOST] Billionaire troll Elon Musk mocked the IRS
...the Internal Revenue Service; that office of the United States government that collects taxes and persecutes the regime's political enemies...
for hiring an additional 87,000 employees on Thursday.

The IRS will be making the hires using funds from the so-called Inflation Reduction Act, which is expected to pass through Congress in the coming days. Musk remarked that "Fate [loves] irony" and posted a meme on Twitter pointing out that the US first broke with England over taxes.

"When the country that revolted over taxes hires 87,000 new IRS agents," the meme reads, placed above a photo of a laughing British Army officer from the movie The Patriot.

One Twitter user replied that "They’re not going after you, they’re coming after us," to which Musk responded, "True. I already get audited every year by default."

The new hiring has been widely criticized by Republicans, who cited a job posting on the IRS website seeking "Criminal Investigation Special Agents."

#3  Musk is a COVID non-believer. He has exposed Twitter, a key Deep State social media collection tool. Yes, they wishes to destroy him.

#2  FCC just cancelled a $800M grant to Starlink for rural broadband. Wanna bet whether the Regime is just getting started with this guy?
