Against all odds, the fundamental transformation of the United States, envisioned by the radical Left and implemented by an all-too-willing Democratic Party, is underway. August is typically a quiet time in our nation’s capital with Congress out of session, but seismic events in the past two weeks have combined to make clear what Democrats have planned for this country.
President Joe Biden signed the ludicrously named Inflation Reduction Act into law this week, which was only possible because Sen. Joe Manchin, (D-WV), one of the only supposedly centrist Democrats left, finally gave into the liberal demands of his party. He did so because, contrary to the image of integrity he’s tried so hard to project, Manchin had a price, and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, (D-NY) agreed to pay it. And as a result, the public is going to be saddled with a boondoggle of a bill that analysts agree will not reduce inflation. It will, however, raise taxes on the middle class and subsidize green energy programs.
The bill will also dramatically expand the scope and size of the IRS. In fact, it increases IRS funding by $80 billion, nearly six times its current annual budget of $13.7 billion , and adds an army of 87,000 new auditors to its ranks. Given that the IRS has been stockpiling weapons in recent years, buying up $700,000 in ammunition this year alone, this truly gives new meaning to the phrase, “weaponization of U.S. institutions.”
But that was just the start. The FBI’s Gestapo-style raid on Mar-a-Lago, former President Donald Trump’s Palm Beach residence, was the most egregious deed of all. It’s impossible to see how this raid wasn’t purely political in nature, given the fact Trump had already been cooperating with the FBI to return classified documents he brought with him from the White House, and the fact that the Justice Department has never before gone to such lengths to enforce a law that other politicians, including Hillary Clinton, have been accused of breaking.
