      “Hey this is the IRS, we want to ask you some questions about your jet usage”

      “Oh hello, this is Dewey, Cheatem, & Howe, the legal and financial firm representing [insert business wealthy enough to own a private jet here]. What questions do you have?”

      Sigh “Nevermind, time to go back to scraping money from average citizens”

        This is exactly why the additional $80 billion funding was needed. The IRS was being starved by legislators in the pocket of billionaires.

        It’s exactly why clawing back that money is at the top of the conservative wishlist.

        Ah, good old Republican propaganda being touted out in order to “muh both sides!” this and additional justify cutting money for the IRS to go after these tax cheats.

        Bravo.

        Just showing appreciation for “Dewey, Cheatem, & Howe.”

        That’s Three Stooges-level of classic comedy, bravo!
