Hey, Sen. Schumer and Minority House Leader Jeffries-just curious, but why did you not immediately hold a press conference denouncing *47’s attempt at extorting Zelensky after Friday’s hateful meeting in the Oval yesterday?

IRS cuts over 6,000 jobs in the middle of tax season - NPR
Americans be in alert!
This agency is a revenue source FOR the government! The IRS has been operating with a short staff for a decade. This will affect the number of complicated audits they can preform. Coincidence? Probably not.

USAID’s website has been deleted, all that is left is a note saying all personnel are now on administrative leave and personnel outside the US are to be brought home. Completely illegal, no act of congress or even executive order was signed to dismantle the agency
