Is the IRS Being Used to Sidestep the Posse Comitatus Act? ( September 27, 2022 )
Is the expansion of the IRS being used to sidestep the posse comitatus act? This act was enacted in 1878. Essentially, it forbids the government from using the armed forces to enforce domestic laws. This law has exceptions - most notably for insurrections. It allows the government to use the armed forces to suppress a rebellion. Although posse comitatus hasn’t been used to combat an insurrection - yet- some believe the U.S. is preparing for one. Talk show host Dave Hodges has hypothesized that’s the real reason behind doubling the size of the IRS. Since the military can’t be used for now, these agents - many of whom are armed- will be used as proxy. Allowing them essentially be a ghost military force in the U.S. disguised as mere administrative revenue officers.
Do you agree with him? Do you think that the IRS expansion is really just a way to increase the presence of and place a quasi force of armed agents across the country? Let me know in the comments!
“Whoever, except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress, willfully uses any part of the Army or the Air Force as a posse comitatus or otherwise to execute the laws shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.”
