The Biden IRS suddenly discovers fiscal responsibility when auditing Trump’s swamp creatures, yet somehow misses the yacht-sized loopholes for billionaires. Hegseth’s theatrics—posting a tax bill like it’s a badge of honor—reeks of desperation. A SecDef drowning in personal debt and ethics complaints is a national security risk waiting to explode. But sure, let’s pretend a $33k audit is the real scandal, not the sexual assault allegations or the vodka-fueled resume that slithered past Vance’s tiebreaker.

This is what happens when “drain the swamp” becomes “marinate in the cesspool.” The only norm here is the GOP’s relentless drive to normalize grift. An indebted Pentagon chief? Perfect for foreign interests shopping for influence. The IRS did its job—shame it’s the only branch that still does.
