PLANET SAVED: Democrats’ IRS Expansion Bill Also Solves Climate Change

President Joe Biden and his fellow Democrats have finally solved so-called climate change, according to media reports celebrating the Senate passage of the "IRS Expansion" bill over the weekend.

While the Senate was still considering amendments to what critics have called the "Tax-Code Terrorism Authorization Act," the POLITICO Playbook newsletter (presented by Facebook) congratulated Biden for "making history." One of the bill's most notable provisions calls for an unprecedented expansion of the Internal Revenue Service by as many as 87,000 new agents to harass middle-class Americans who can't afford expensive attorneys. The historic legislation would make the federal tax enforcement agency larger than the Pentagon, State Department, FBI, and Border Patrol combined.

"Biden has been a consequential president," the POLITICO declared, noting that the federal government has approved nearly $3.5 trillion in new spending on his watch. "In the long run, his first two years may be remembered as akin to LBJ when it comes to moving his agenda through Congress." (Context: Lyndon B. Johnson, a Democrat who may or may not have played a role in the JFK assassination, was a virulent racist.)
