Breitbart

On Tuesday’s broadcast of Newsmax TV’s “John Bachman Now,” Rep. Ben Cline (R-VA) said that Republicans took up repealing funding for increased IRS agents as their first act in the House majority because... "They wanted to increase taxes on the American people and they want to increase the number of Americans taxed. And so, they’ve increased, by 87,000 staff and agents, the number of IRS employees, and they’re going to be increasing the number of audits. Those audits are going to be targeting not just the super-rich, but hard-working Americans, small businesses... That’s why the very first bill that we acted upon in the new Congress was to repeal funding for those 87,000 IRS staff and agents.” Read more here.
