20 Attorneys General Sue Trump Admin To Shield Recently-Hired Bureaucrats From Being Fired

'They are also against the law'

White House deputy chief of staff: ‘Time to abolish the IRS’



While Americans dread filing their taxes this spring, President Donald Trump is currently trying to make his tax cuts permanent.

However, that’s not all the Trump administration is suggesting.

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Dan Scavino has been sounding off about abolishing the IRS altogether, writing in a post on X: “Time to abolish the IRS.”

“He is the White House deputy chief of staff, so this is not a nobody,” Jill Savage of “Blaze News Tonight” comments.


And X users are overwhelmingly behind Scavino’s post, including user “Lady Patriot.”

“Trump’s anti-IRS stance is pure genius. Defund the bureaucrats, empower the people. Conservatives have been dreaming of this moment for decades,” she wrote.

“They certainly have,” Savage agrees. “I think if you could go through and say, ‘Oh, what’s one of the departments, right, okay, yes, the Department of Education, all these other ones.’ The IRS is the top of the top.”

“Remember, we’re coming right out of a time in which the other side was going, ‘We’re going to add to the IRS. We’re going to put a bunch more people, 87,000 IRS agents, we’re giving them guns,'" Matthew Peterson adds. “And you had the rest of the country going, ‘Oh my gosh, I’ll meet you in the gulags.’”

“Now, this is a real rollback. It’s real; it’s not fake. This is something that’s actually happening; people are talking about these things; they’re full of excitement, and they’re pushing forward,” he continues.

DOGE May Force Bureaucrats To Think Twice Before Spending Your Tax Dollars

This idea that the taxpayers now can and will have oversight of federal bureaucracies has been unleashed.

Complaint Accuses Far-Left WI Supreme Court Candidate Of Crossing Ethics Line

Judge Susan Crawford was on a Democrat 'donor advisory briefing' call and was billed as the left's hope to help take back the House.

IRS Contractor Leaked Information Of 405,000 Taxpayers — But We’re Supposed To Be Concerned About DOGE?

A new letter released by the House Judiciary Committee reveals that under the Biden administration, an IRS contractor leaked the tax information of 405,427 taxpayers to news sources — including that of President Donald Trump. Yet Americans are supposed to be concerned about DOGE? For weeks Democrats have cried wolf over Elon Musk and DOGE […]

House committee shockingly reveals IRS tax record leaks under Biden were 5 times worse than originally reported



Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee published a new disclosure Tuesday that unveiled the true scale of IRS leaks under President Joe Biden.

The new disclosure revealed that the IRS leaked taxpayer information of over 405,000 Americans, including President Donald Trump, rather than the initial 70,000 figure.

"The IRS’s admission confirms the Committee’s suspicion and recent reports that show the scope of the leak was much broader than what the Biden Administration’s IRS initially led the public to believe," the committee stated Tuesday.

'The left is in meltdown mode accusing Elon of accessing their personal data when it was BIDEN’S IRS that leaked the data of 405,000 Americans!'

Republican Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, who chairs the committee, attributed this discrepancy to political convenience, noting that the IRS had previously been weaponized by Democratic administrations.

"The Obama IRS targeted conservatives," Jordan said in a Tuesday post on X. "The Biden IRS leaked your data."

"Just the latest example of corruption in our government," Republican Rep. Barry Moore of Alabama echoed. "Not only did the Biden IRS allow this leak to happen, they lied to the American people about how many taxpayers it affected."

One Republican pointed out the hypocritical outrage in response to Elon Musk's DOGE directive to access similar data in order to track down federal fraud and corruption.

"The left is in meltdown mode accusing Elon of accessing their personal data when it was BIDEN’S IRS that leaked the data of 405,000 Americans!" Republican Rep. Nick Langworthy of New York said in a Tuesday post on X.

IRS to axe 6,000+ workers amid Trump's cost-cutting sweep



The Internal Revenue Service reportedly notified staff that over 6,000 will be let go before week's end.

The decision follows President Donald Trump's directive to slash probationary workers across the federal government.

'Abolish the Internal Revenue Service.'

An internal email obtained by CBS News revealed that more than 3,500 of those affected are probationary hires in the IRS' Small Business/Self-Employed Division.

The email, signed by SBSE Commissioner Lia Colbert and SBSE Deputy Commissioner Maha Williams, noted that employees will be notified by the agency's Human Capital Office on Thursday whether their positions have been impacted.

It stated, "While details are still developing, we understand that over 3,500 SB/SE probationary hires will be terminated by the end of this week."

Those expected to be terminated "were not deemed as critical to filing season," the correspondence added.

A separate email was sent to managers in the IRS' Large Business & International Division, requesting that they work in the office on Thursday and Friday "to support offboarding activities," CBS News reported. The number of affected staffers in that division remains unclear.

Before launching the government-wide purge of probationary employees, the Trump administration offered a "deferred resignation" buyout that would have allowed workers to retain their pay and benefits until September 30. More than 75,000 federal workers took the deal.

Neither the IRS nor the White House responded to CBS News' request for comment.

The cuts follow a visit last week from a Department of Government Efficiency staffer.

White House spokesperson Harrison Fields stated, "Waste, fraud, and abuse have been deeply entrenched in our broken system for far too long."

"DOGE will continue to shine a light on the fraud they uncover, as the American people deserve to know what their government has been spending their hard-earned tax dollars on," Fields added.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told Fox News' Jesse Watters on Wednesday that Trump's goal is to "abolish the Internal Revenue Service and let all the outsiders pay."

"As the president said, reciprocal tariffs, either you bring yours down or we're going to bring ours up. If we go to their level, it will earn us $700 billion a year to be equal to everybody else," Lutnick stated. "And there goes our deficit. And interest rates come smashing down, and the whole economy explodes higher."

DOGE scores legal win, maintaining access to data from three federal agencies



The Department of Government Efficiency, led by Elon Musk, secured a legal victory on Friday when a federal judge ruled that the agency can access data from the Department of Labor, the Department of Health and Human Services, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Earlier this month, a coalition of labor unions and nonprofit organizations filed a lawsuit to temporarily block the DOGE from accessing the agencies' systems and data.

'There needs to be an immediate wave of judicial impeachments, not just one.'

The complaint argued that the DOGE, established by a presidential executive order, is not a legitimate federal agency since it was not formed by Congress and thus should not be allowed access to sensitive government information.

However, United States District Judge John Bates disagreed, finding that the plaintiffs failed to show "a substantial likelihood that [the DOGE] is not an agency."

"If that is so, [the DOGE] may detail its employees to other agencies consistent with the Economy Act," Bates ordered.

Last week, Bates ruled that the plaintiffs also "failed to establish standing" in the case. However, the judge noted that the court "harbors concerns" about the DOGE's access.

Musk responded to Bates' Friday ruling in a post on X, writing, "LFG," an acronym for "let's f***ing go."

Musk had previously called for Bates' impeachment after the judge ordered several government agencies to restore web pages, including those on gender ideology, that President Donald Trump's administration had taken down.

"There needs to be an immediate wave of judicial impeachments, not just one," Musk stated.

In a separate post, Musk wrote, "Truly absurd. Judges as website editors!? We should at least ATTEMPT to fire this junky jurist. The notion of having a judge job for life, no matter how bad the judgments, is ridiculous! Enough is enough."

In another case brought by 10 Democratic attorneys general, U.S. District Judge Jeannette Vargas ruled on Friday to extend a temporary restraining order blocking the DOGE from accessing Treasury Department records while she reviews a preliminary injunction. Vargas argued there was a "sound factual basis" for the temporary block.

Over the weekend, sources told ABC News that the DOGE had requested access to an Internal Revenue Service system.

A White House spokesperson told the Washington Post, "Waste, fraud, and abuse have been deeply entrenched in our broken system for far too long. It takes direct access to the system to identify and fix it. DOGE will continue to shine a light on the fraud they uncover as the American people deserve to know what their government has been spending their hard earned tax dollars on."

Media reaction is 'a shame': Trump’s Treasury secretary SHUTS DOWN reporter trying to attack DOGE



While the Biden government hired 80,000 new IRS agents to make sure you followed every one of their complicated tax laws, President Trump ordered the DOGE to audit the government — and now Democrat politicians and the media are freaking out.

The reaction speaks volumes about where their true priorities lie, and Glenn Beck of “The Glenn Beck Program” is tired of it, especially following a judge’s attempt to block even Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent from accessing Treasury data.

But Bessent isn’t backing down, and even recently defended the DOGE against a Bloomberg reporter, who pressed Bessent on Elon Musk.


While the reporter insinuated that Elon was doing something wrong, Bessent replied that he and Elon “are completely aligned in terms of cutting waste and increasing accountability and transparency for the American people.”

“I believe that this DOGE program, in my adult life, is one of the most important audits of government or changes to government structure we have seen,” Bessent said firmly. “I think that there are gigantic cost savings for the American people here, and I think it’s unfortunate the way the media wants to lampoon what is going on.”

“These are highly trained professionals, you know, this is not some roving band going around doing things. This is methodical, and it is going to yield big savings,” he added.

Glenn is shocked at the reporter's hostility throughout the interview.

“Did you hear a nonhostile question coming from the Bloomberg reporter?” he asks.

“No,” Pat Gray answers, adding, “But he handled it in a nonhostile way.”
