In the past, IRS lawyers have been hesitant to use executive actions to raise significant amounts of revenue, but that same calculation has changed in other federal agencies since Obama became president. <\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Oh this is just a wonderful idea. I wonder what the body count will be among IRS employees if they try and pull this stunt, because there WILL be violence. Of course, the Regime is denying they are thinking about doing such a thing.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>&#8220;Now I don&#8217;t want to leave you with the impression that there is some imminent announcement, there is not, at least that I know of,&#8221; Earnest continued.&#8221;But the president has asked his team to examine the array of executive authorities that are available to him to try to make progress on his goals. So I am not in a position to talk in any detail at this point, but the president is very interested in this avenue generally,&#8221; Earnest finished. <\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Il-Douche.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-8989\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Il-Douche-213x300.jpg?resize=213%2C300\" alt=\"Il Douche\" width=\"213\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Il-Douche.jpg?resize=213%2C300&amp;ssl=1 213w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Il-Douche.jpg?resize=106%2C150&amp;ssl=1 106w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Il-Douche.jpg?w=342&amp;ssl=1 342w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 213px) 100vw, 213px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>That tells me that Il Douche is now actively considering it.
