The media has pushed for greater IRS surveillance of American citizens, claiming opposition to such surveillance is just Republicans being anti-democracy.<\/p>\n<p>In an op-ed with the New York Times on Sunday, Binyamin Appelbaum said the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2021\/10\/24\/opinion\/republicans-tax-evasion.html\">\u201cRotten Core of the Republican Party\u201d<\/a> is based on supporting tax evasion. He said this in response to GOP criticisms of a provision in the Democrat\u2019s partisan spending package, which requires the IRS to monitor bank accounts with $10,000 or more in transactions.<\/p>\n<p>Leader of the House Republican Conference, Kevin McCarthy (Calif.) recently put out a video in which he declared the provision in the bill to be un-American. The man vying to take Speaker Nancy Pelosi\u2019s (D-Calif.) position after the midterms said the GOP would go full force in trying to stop the provision from becoming law.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBiden wants to hire thousands of new IRS bureaucrats and give them the authority to snoop into your bank account to monitor every single transaction you make,\u201d said McCarthy. \u201cThis surveillance program crosses a line. It\u2019s un-American. And Republicans will do everything possible to stop it before it ever gets off the ground.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>GOP senators also recently held a press conference to register their disdain for the provision in the bill. They claimed the provision is actually designed to spy on Americans, not to make everyone pay their so-called fair share as Appelbaum has claimed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy the way, the proposal doesn\u2019t include just banks and credit unions,\u201d stated Sen. Mike Crapo (R-Idaho.). \u201cIt includes financial institutions. That\u2019ll be Venmo, PayPal, you name it. And the scope of the IRS ability to dive into these accounts will be the biggest violation of individual privacy that i think this country has ever seen.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">FACT CHECK: Tax Breaks for Wealthy, IRS Surveillance is &#8220;Rotten Core&#8221; of Biden\u2019s Tax Plan: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BCAppelbaum?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@BCAppelbaum<\/a>\u2019s column &#8220;The Rotten Core of the Republican Party\u201d simply repeats Democrats&#8217; myths on GOP tax reform.<\/p>\n<p>Read here:<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/R1TeGEmkP2\">https:\/\/t.co\/R1TeGEmkP2<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ways and Means GOP (@WaysandMeansGOP) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WaysandMeansGOP\/status\/1453046201385897992?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 26, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Appelbaum claimed Republicans are in opposition to the bill simply because they oppose taxation, which he says is a direct threat to the American experiment in self-governance. Many on social media have been quick to point out that history may not have been Appelbaum\u2019s strong suit.<\/p>\n<p>A member of the communications staff for the Heritage Foundation, John Cooper, said Appelbaum must have skipped U.S. history class. Senior writer at National Review, Dan McLaughlin, sarcastically asked if the article was written by King George III himself.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the bill needs almost every Democrat in the House, as well as every single one in the Senate before it can be passed. It\u2019s currently unknown if the final partisan reconciliation package will contain the provision, though little has been said in opposition to it by any Democrats.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/john-wayne-gacy-victim-identified-after-43-years\/\">John Wayne Gacy Victim Identified After 43 Years<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CHICAGO \u2013 NOVEMBER 1: Current federal tax forms are distributed at the offices of the Internal Revenue Service November 1, 2005 in Chicago, Illinois.
