Why does DOGE need citizens private tax information?
What use could it be to them?
DOGE is now auditing the IRS - turnabout is fairplay, is it not?
There’s no maybe. Both parties have done it for decades. The Supreme Court supports corruption because they are on the take themselves. When all the foxes own the hen house our options are limited for recourse. Doge is just it e newest flavor of government corruption.There needs to be a look at why certain heads of govt agencies have gotten so wealthy.
Maybe they just happened to make some excellent personal investment and financial decisions.
Or maybe they used their govt position to enrich themselves.

I know this was written as irony but it's true. We have since nothing like this since the Beatles landed in NYC.People come up to trump with tears in their eyes and thank him
Yup.I haven't seen any evidence that DOGE has done anything besides create a lot of drama.

Elon Musk's DOGE begins IRS audit. What to know
A Musk aide entered the IRS offices in Washington for the first time on Thursday, raising concerns over cuts to the tax agency.www.newsweek.com
Trump signs off on DOGE audit of IRS - Washington Examiner
Trump has long railed against the IRS, repeatedly claiming on the 2024 campaign trail that the office improperly targets conservatives for political reasons.www.washingtonexaminer.com
Audits use auditors to preform analysis and make recommendations. This is just a coup.
All govt personnel who have unusually high wealth that isn't consistent with their salary.Who are we talking about?
Who are these personnel?All govt personnel who have unusually high wealth that isn't consistent with their salary.
If they have lots of extra money, then where did it come from?
Did they misuse their govt position to enrich themselves?
So you don't want to see these finances probed? How can you complain about corruption while arguing against investigating it?There’s no maybe. Both parties have done it for decades. The Supreme Court supports corruption because they are on the take themselves. When all the foxes own the hen house our options are limited for recourse. Doge is just it e newest flavor of government corruption.
Who are these personnel?
Specifically… who are they?
Do you really think a guy who spent a quarter of a billion dollars helping Trump get elected isn't calling his own shots?There's no coup -- the guy's been named for the job by Trump.
Anything being done is happening with Trump's sanction.
So you don’t even know if they exist.You get to know by looking for them. How else will you know?
The IRS audits everyone -- now it's the turn of IRS to be audited.What on earth are you talking about?
What turnabout?
That's like saying "Why look for tax evaders? How do you know if they exist? Why look for drug traffickers? How do you know they even exist?"So you don’t even know if they exist.
Thats cool.
There needs to be a look at why certain heads of govt agencies have gotten so wealthy.
Maybe they just happened to make some excellent personal investment and financial decisions.
Or maybe they used their govt position to enrich themselves.
Then why aren't they conducting an actual audit with trained auditors? Why is a government contractor that receives billions in government contracts determining what contracts he wants to honor? Again more coup than audit in process. I've seen audits. This ain't it.There's no coup -- the guy's been named for the job by Trump.
Anything being done is happening with Trump's sanction.
According to our constitution that job belongs to Congress. I'm fine with Congress doing it's job. Why do you want to throw out our constitution and current laws in favor of giving full control to a foreign billionaire instead of our Congress? We used to be a nation of laws. We used to care about national security.So you don't want to see these finances probed? How can you complain about corruption while arguing against investigating it?
Where is Congress in all of this?? Only Congress is supposed to have the power of the purse.There's no coup -- the guy's been named for the job by Trump.
Anything being done is happening with Trump's sanction.
That sad sack can't even release his own taxes without it being obvious to all that see them that he's a tax cheat. So he can't.would that include looking at President's, their staff and cabinet picks?
"power of the purse" = power to fundWhere is Congress in all of this?? Only Congress is supposed to have the power of the purse.
Basically there is a problem that is being made up... that there are government employees who somehow have too much money and we have to launch invasive investigations to root out these people. But no one can say if these people actually exist. It is a figment.That's like saying "Why look for tax evaders? How do you know if they exist? Why look for drug traffickers? How do you know they even exist?"
You seem to be saying that the govt is above suspicion, and there is no right to audit their books. They should be audited.

Unlike tax evaders... there are real world examples of those people existing and we made one of them President
