Summary
Mass firings at the IRS under the Trump administration threaten ongoing audits of wealthy individuals and corporations, potentially leading to millions in lost tax revenue.
The cuts primarily impacted employees in the Large Business & International Division, many of whom had extensive tax expertise.
With fewer agents and specialists, complex cases may be prematurely closed, undermining enforcement against high-end tax evasion.
Critics warn this weakens IRS oversight and emboldens tax avoidance among the ultrawealthy.
Fucken sick of this blatant manipulation by the wealthy. The IRS is our fucken money maker.
Let’s rename it to “Accounts Receivable” and really run this country like a business.
