GOP rep: Agencies like IRS can be 'weaponized,' should 'just go away'

Rep. Warren Davidson from Ohio has sparked controversy by suggesting that the IRS should be abolished, claiming it can be weaponized against political opponents. His call for the agency's closure is tied to his push for a constitutional amendment to repeal the 16th Amendment, which allows for income tax collection. This statement raises significant concerns about the future of tax policy and government oversight, as it reflects a growing sentiment among some lawmakers that certain agencies may overreach their authority.
