The Change comes just Two Months into Billy Longformer (R) Congressman’s Tenure Leading the Tax Agency (IRS).
Long, is expected to be Nominated to an Ambassadorshipd. It is unclear who will next Lead the IRS, which has had Six different People in Charge this year. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent (R) will Serve as Acting Commissioner until a Permanent Replacement is in place.
Long had been an Unusual Choice to Lead the IRS He did Not have much Background in Tax Policy beyond Promoting a Tax Credit that the IRS has Warned was Riddled with Fraud, and while He was in Congress, He supported Legislation calling for the Abolition of the Agency entirely.
Over His Short Tenure at the Tax Agency, Long, a former Auctioneer, traveled to meet with IRS Staff across the Country and Appeared at a National Auction Association Conference. He placed Two Top IRS Officials on Administrative Leave, Amplifying a Post on Social Media about the Need to “Purge” the Agency’s Work Force.
At the same time, He has also Repeatedly sent emails to All IRS Employees allowing them to Leave Work Early on Friday Afternoon. “Please enjoy a 70-minute early exit tomorrow. That way you’ll be rested for my 70th birthday on Monday!” Long wrote to Staff on Thursday.
The Trump (R) Administration has Pushed to dramatically Reduce the Number of Staff who Work at the IRS, while at the same time seeking to use it to help Deport Migrants and Scrutinize the Tax-Exempt Status of Universities.
