Dems said we need X billions dollars to fund the IRS.
Dems asked for billions less, got even less passed. Then went back and took billions more from that after it was passed as a “show of good faith” in negations with Republicans. I’m pretty fucking sure that was to get a budget passed, which Surprise! Republicans still didn’t pass one.
That’s why I said “the only other option isn’t putting up much of a fight…”.
By Dems own admission we’re not giving them enough, even before it was reduced multiple times.
Makes you wonder how many people are quietly getting away with it now.

That’s from this month, notice how my link says 60 billion, and yours says 80 billion?
We’ll simplify, just ignore the billion part, and the zero as well:
Which number is bigger, 6 or 8?
Don’t want to go over your head, but we can reduce by a factor of two as well, 3 and 4. That’s a 25% decrease in funding since your article…
