Can't have a modern functioning government without taxation. But why should the billionaire job creators have to pay?
‘‘Delete’ is one of their favorite terms’: Inside DOGE’s IRS takeover ahead of tax season
What Happened: Musk’s unauthorized FAKE DOGE has seized control of the IRS, gutting the agency at the height of tax season. Musk operatives have fired thousands of workers, shut down taxpayer assistance offices, and are demanding access to sensitive tax data—including records that could be used to target immigrants and opposition. Internal turmoil is rising, with employees describing intimidation, mass firings, and confusion over who has the authority to make these changes.
Why It Matters: Trump and Musk are hollowing out the IRS to cripple its ability to function while laying the groundwork to weaponize taxpayer data against political opponents and immigrants. The agency funding the U.S. government is being systematically dismantled by an unelected billionaire gaining access to sensitive data.
