Mark Hemingway: More Federal Bureaucrats Than Marines Are Now Authorized To Carry Weapons
Here's that video. I don't understand the "fact" check here -- the video is in fact from the IRS, but it's not an official training video? Then what is it? Sounds like a b***shit denial to me, which of course the media and "fact" checkers take as the gold-standard final word.
When Congress authorized $80 billion this year to beef up Internal Revenue Service enforcement and staffing, Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy invoked the language of war to warn that "Democrats' new army of 87,000 IRS agents will be coming for you." A video quickly went viral racking up millions of views, purporting to show a bunch of clumsy bureaucrats receiving firearms training, prompting alarm that the IRS would be engaged in military-style raids of ordinary taxpayers. The GOP claims were widely attacked as exaggerations -- since the video, though from the IRS, didn't show official agent training -- but the criticism has shed light on a growing trend: the rapid arming of the federal government.
A report issued last year by the watchdog group Open The Books, "The Militarization of The U.S. Executive Agencies," found that more than 200,000 federal bureaucrats now have been granted the authority to carry guns and make arrests -- more than the 186,000 Americans serving in the U.S. Marine Corps. "One hundred three executive agencies outside of the Department of Defense spent $2.7 billion on guns, ammunition, and military-style equipment between fiscal years 2006 and 2019 (inflation adjusted)," notes the report. "Nearly $1 billion ($944.9 million) was spent between fiscal years 2015 and 2019 alone." The watchdog reports that the Department of Health and Human Services has 1,300 guns including one shotgun, five submachine guns, and 189 automatic firearms. NASA has its own fully outfitted SWAT team, with all the attendant weaponry, including armored vehicles, submachine guns, and breeching shotguns. The Environmental Protection Agency has purchased drones, GPS trackers, radar equipment, and night vision goggles, in addition to stockpiling firearms. A 2018 Government Accountability Office report noted that the IRS had 4,487 guns and 5,062,006 rounds of ammunition in inventory at the end of 2017 -- before the enforcement funding boost this year. The IRS did not respond to requests for information, though the IRS' Criminal Investigation division does put out an annual report detailing basic information such as how many warrants the agency is executing in a given year. ... When asked about the need for such lethal materiel, agency officials typically speak only in general terms about security concerns. Agencies contacted by RealClearInvestigations from HHS to EPA declined to provide, or said they did not have, comprehensive statistics on how often their firearms are used, or details on how they conduct armed operations.Much more at the link. Rep. Chip Roy highlighted Hemingway's article and suggested defunding these arm-the-angry-bureaucrats programs. Jim Swift of The Bulwark, of course, immediately claimed that the Second Amendment is all about the right of federal bureaucrats to have the government buy guns for them, and that if you didn't believe that, you're not a True Conservative, Conserving Conservatism, like him and his Cruise Ship Swabbies at the Bulwark. Below, "TIL" is an abbreviation for a sarcastic "Today I Learned."
...
"We can all understand the dangerous world out there," said Adam Andrzejewski, the CEO of Open The Books -- and thus, he said, the need for some heavy weaponry in the Departments of Homeland Security and Justice. "But some of these other agencies, like Health and Human Services, they've got machine guns?" Andrzejewski said that when he asked HHS about its arsenal, the agency spoke only in general terms about the dangers employees faced. It did not detail an increase in threats or provide specific examples of cases where such weapons would be required.

The Federal bureaucracy must be abolished in its entirety. To do that, however, is essentially to declare war on the State formerly known as the United States of America.

Wrong approach. Pass a law that disarms all federal agencies except those committed to LE (that can wait, I suppose, and besides all federal LE needs to be dismantled and refactored anyway) and give the agencies six months to comply. Pass the law six months before the next budget process starts.
Any agency that doesn't comply, with evidence and subject to external audit, is fully and totally defunded.

The meme came from a story where IRS agents served a warrant on a guy's house, looking for his ex-wife over potential student loan fraud. A couple agents wore body armor, and showed up with local police as backup, as the people who engage in large-scale student loan fraud aren't always the nicest, or most cooperative. The guy was quoted in the newspapers as saying, "They showed up with a SWAT team!"

They probably have extensive training - I mean that non-sarcastically - so the employees learn to direct it outward. Routine operations will help ensure the pressure builds up too much.

President Barack Obama described his political opponents as angry, racist, and sexist during a private conversation with some of Europe’s elites this summer, according to a newly revealed transcript. . . Obama offered his candid advice privately to European leaders in June after speaking publicly at the Copenhagen Democracy Summit in June.
But he also warned attendees away from sometimes getting too “filled up in our own self-righteousness.” [sure, sure!]
“We’re so convinced that we’re right that we forget what we are right about,” he said.
Details of his remarks were revealed in a new CNN report about the former president’s political activities during the midterms.

This the civil army that Oblabla referred to when he basically said we needed an armed woke contingent as big and as heavily armed as our military.
Like so many I thought no one would go for that.
And yet, here we are.
If we take the House, the Reps need to defund every single bit of this anti-American BS.
Will they? Ehhhhhhhhhhhhh...

“Sometimes it just turns out they’re mean, they’re racist, they’re sexist, they’re angry,” Obama said. “And your job is then to just beat them because they’re not persuadable.”
Amazingly, this is precisely how I feel about Obama and everything he and his Party represents.
You literally cannot talk to these people and try to persuade them. THEY are the ones that have shut down any civil discourse. And that leaves only one option.

Jim Swift, by a wide margin. Taylor Swift might be vapid, but she's smart enough to have not wasted all of her enormous wealth in short order. Even if that just means that Taylor Swift is smart enough to hire people who aren't stupid to take care of it for her, it's still a sign that she's far smarter than Jim Swift.

I’m also motivated to respond because, irrelevant or distasteful as one may think these people are, they are actually quite powerful. They, and many others like them, form authoritative opinion in our time. In an age, and a regime, in which propaganda and censorship are foundational sources of rule, the power to police opinion is quasi-governmental. They are information warfare specialists, backed by big money, and their role is to constrain what you get to hear in part by smearing and slandering dissidents. One may not pay them much heed, but others who also have power over what the public gets to hear do, hence their vitriol matters.

I'd prefer to completely defund, but we are on the minority on that one. Passing a law to disarm them may be more palatable as it sounds more "reasonable." So I guess I'm for it, but it doesn't go nearly far enough. 5 years ago, I would say only a handful of government agencies need to be armed. At this point, I'd limit it to the US Marshalls and maybe a handful of SS agents.

A belief, and desire, that evil shall be vanquished via a “historical process”.
This historical process will be helped along by gnostics, because all problems have, and must have, a solution.

Thereafter, a lot of that equipment and military-type vehicles went to civilian police forces nationwide, which then made it convenient to accuse 'some' of them of menacing & employing military tactics to terrorize citizens.

Pull quote: "So, why are some fields entirely left? If the right didn’t abandon it? Because the right is meritocratic. And mostly we enter a field to “do the thing” and we try to be best at “the thing”.
The left while they might be attracted to the field because of their inclinations and talents (some of them are very talented) enter the field to “promote the revolution” by which they mean Marxism. They will not promote/support, they will outright sabotage/destroy anyone who doesn’t explicitly support them."

This is Jordan Peterson's problem, he views everything as allegory and through a psychological lens rather than learning from fact and history. This entire analysis misses the lessons and events of the fall, and original sin, and turns it into an Aesop's fable with a morale and he even gets the wrong morale out of it.
We fight against evil on a spiritual plane, not physical. You cannot defeat evil by shooting someone, you just remove one person. He's right that removing the big evil just shows the evil in us, but that's because its inside all of us, and must be fought individually and with truth, not because you cannot fight evil.

In Anton's article linked by Ace he specifically describes this Neocon shtick.
Bill [Kristol] is a great deal wilier than the average Swamp hack, and a genius at getting others to do his dirty work. One of his go-to attack dogs is a person called Christian Vanderbrouk who seems to be some sort of professional Twitter troll and goes by the handle UrbanAchievr. . . Vanderbrouk’s specialty is the deliberate misreading, the willful distortion tantamount to a lie. Would that we could excuse Vanderbrouk on the ground of poor reading comprehension. But he knows what he’s doing. His purpose is to harm. This is not discourse or disagreement. It’s a kind of information warfare deployed explicitly to destroy reputations and, if successful, lives. It is done out of enmity, and it is evil.
It is deliberate. We need to stop assuming these enemies are stupid. Their audience is, and they know their intentional mischaracterization will be consumed, repeated, eventually be seen as the truth.

You let progressives have free time and you get little tyrannies pooping up everywhere.

The same reason all these feds need guns and the IRS needs almost 100,000 new agents.
Because they cannot hire enough cops to counter the mass of Americans with weapons and training, and they cannot yet rely on the military to consistently obey their orders to suppress and control citizens. So they are trying to end run around all that by arming up everyone else.

I'm sort of with Jesse Kelly on this. Take the reinforcements as they come. Now perhaps, she isn't much of a reinforcement - maybe she is just more neutral for the moment. But leaving the Democrat party is a good first step. Not poisoning the MAGA side is a good second step. I don't trust her, but she isn't awful on some issues. Of course, easier to leave the party when you are not currently in office and have no say. Clearly she is looking for some additional grift. Doesn't mean she can't be of service. Time will tell.

Ever flinch when seeing someone else get hit (in film or otherwise)? People get some degree of experience indirectly through empathy. It probably helps us "put ourselves in other people's shoes" and predict their reactions.

Drop off New Arrivals? That is all fifty states.
Don't forget the need to "House the Unhoused" too. If you are in a blue city or a blue state, that is a non-trivial possibility.

I rate this 100% accurate. The only reason for arming bureaucrats is to kill off most of us and enslave those who are left.

If I understood his argument, the correct way is to fight on the spiritual plane, but the way great horrors have been created was to fight it on the physical plane. Which is what the camps and the midnight raids and the shooting civilians on the edge of ditches was all about, extirpating evil by getting rid of those evil people.
Look again at that list of gnostic tendencies and see where it leads, especially the part that leads to rejecting reality to create a preferred one that is easier to manipulate.

Dennis Prager was a lifelong Democrat (he jokes that it was assigned to him on his birth certificate, being a Jew born in New York City) until he heard Ronald Reagan say during his first Inaugural Address: "In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government *is* the problem."
He had an epiphany that virtually *all* of the genocides of the 20th century were perpetrated by governments ...

She's a throwback to an age where Dems had some practical real world experience to temper their liberal ideas rather than be communist zealots. I think she would be foolish to get involved with the Libertarian party due to their leftist inclinations. She'd be better trying to create a "Whig" party out of the wreckage of the Dems. The Whigs were an 'anti Democrat' party rising out of the wreck of the Federalist party which was a loose alliance of people who disliked Northern Democrats in the north and those who disliked Southern Democrats in the south. This made it fracture when a real issue appeared - slavery as half were anti Slavery and the other half were super pro slavery.

Continuity describes the federal government's plans to keep governing even in the event of Armageddon. I can't say it based on any first-hand knowledge, but I'd wager that part of what this entails is the "deputizing" and arming of virtually every federal employee who can carry a firearm.
Maybe some "wartime national emergency" might suffice to call up these legions-in-waiting to put down some Vast, Right-Wing Conspiracy that threatens Our Precious Democracy. Maybe someday soon. That may be why the feds are stocking up on guns and ammo like they are.

You can leave out the 'virtually'. Genocide requires organization and a government wouldn't allow a rival organization to kill on the level of genocide normally.
