Face it, this is NOT about the rich paying their fair share: Dems PROTECT those making $400k or more from being targeted by 87,000 new IRS agents

Remember when Biden promised if you make $400k or less you wouldn’t pay a penny more in taxes? That the rich would pay their fair share? We do.

Welp, it looks like Sen. Crapo tried to make sure the 87,000 new IRS agents Democrats want to bring in won’t be targeting the middle and lower class … and Democrats voted that down. So the next time anyone on the Left or a Democrat claims they care about the middle class you can use this to call BULLS**T.

This is obnoxious.

Crapo amendment to the Manchin bill to limit the bill's 87,000 new IRS agents to auditing comapnes and individuals with income of $400,000 or more FAILED 50-50.https://t.co/oPKr11BAYw pic.twitter.com/mH4wuMsmJ4

Democrats don’t want their wealthy pals aka their wealthy donors audited.

But you little people? Psh.

WTF did Democrat Senators vote AGAINST this Amendment to protect taxpayers making less than $400,000?????https://t.co/NOj8kRUdhK pic.twitter.com/OVnvfSWkuE

Because they don’t need to hire new agents to target them … this is all about the middle class paying THEIR fair share.

They just think people are too stupid to know better.

Of course the Dems voted that down. Does Joe know this bill stomps all over his pledge that those paying less than $400G won’t pay a penny more in taxes?

Joe doesn’t know what day it is, let alone what is happening policy-wise in this country. Democrats know when this blows up (and it will blow up) they can just blame the old rich white guy who likely has Dementia in the White House. They’ll use this to keep him from running again in 24.

While the rest of us get stuck with higher taxes DURING A RECESSION, with a massive and armed IRS.

Ahhh, @MarkWarner guess you didn't want to ensure the IRS would only target the super rich. We both know what the IRS will largely end up targeting based on data and history.
