Trump at Las Vegas Rally Vows to Terminate 88,000 IRS Agents Hired Under Biden or Reassign Them to Border
Jan 26, 2025, 12:03 AM
President Donald Trump, speaking at a rally in Las Vegas, announced plans to either terminate approximately 88,000 IRS agents hired under the Biden administration or reassign them to border patrol duties. He criticized the hiring of these agents, suggesting they could be more effectively utilized to bolster border security. Trump noted that since many of these agents carry guns, they would be suitable for enforcement roles at the border. He also mentioned the possibility of demanding their resignation or defunding the IRS altogether.
