CHARLIE KIRK (HOST): The Democrats increase their ranks by hiring IRS agents. We increase our movement by persuasion and energy, voluntary exchange of ideas. By getting into the grass roots, starting high school chapters, starting college chapters. The left, they pass a multi-hundred billion dollar spending bill to get more IRS agents on the payroll. Their ranks increase, their power increases, the more the IRS is able to get dominion over your life – dare I use a Biblical word.

Democrats are not afraid of new IRS agents because they look at themselves as exempt from the wrath of the regime. That's their team members. The IRS agent, they wear the same jersey. No, no. This will be used against dissidents. This is not the Inflation Reduction Act, this is the dissident imprisonment act. This is the let's choke off the capital flows to the MAGA movement act. The 87,000 new IRS agents will not be used to audit BLM or the ACLU or the alphabet mafia. The 87,000 new IRS agents will be used to go after mom-and-pop restaurants, donors to MAGA candidates, people like you.

KIRK: The IRS expansion act is all about trying to quell dissidents. They know that there is a movement right now. This bill was passed for a reason. Yes, the climate change thing is there. But the real sneaky part is the 87,000 IRS agents that they want in every corner, every restaurant, every small business. They want to create a blitzkrieg of audits against people that they consider and deem to be a threat.
