The #IRS was one of the highest-profile agencies still without a #Senate-confirmed leader. Before #BillyLong’s confirmation, the IRS shuffled through 4 acting leaders, including one who resigned over a deal between the IRS & #DHS to share #immigrants’ #tax data with #ICE & another whose appointment led to a fight between #Musk & #Treasury Secretary #ScottBessent.

Aaron Rupar has posted some great clips of today’s humiliating #Trump #Treasury Secy #ScottBessent’s #House Ways & Means hearing.
Here’s one:
Rep Don Beyer (D-VA): Isn't this embarrassing?
Bessent: You seem not to have seen the economic data. #GDP growth has been quite substantial
BEYER: GDP growth is half what it was last year, sir
BESSENT: #Job growth is solid
BEYER: Job growth is a third what it was last year, sir

Rubio accused the judges of "illegitimate & baseless actions" targeting #Israel & the #US.
He also described the #ICC as “politicized” & said it “falsely claims unfettered discretion”to investigate nationals of the US & its allies.

"By #DOGE’s own dubious accounting, $175bn of savings were made. According to #Treasury figures, spending overall in fact continued to rise. Despite tearing through the government’s most sensitive data systems Mr #Musk’s young engineers also failed to uncover much #fraud."

Your big chance has come at last
Got to go out and get those MAGAts
The only good MAGAt is the one that's... what's that?
We changed sides?
We're Nazis?
The whole "commie" thing was a ruse?
We've always been Nazis?
The whole WWII thing was just a PR blunder?
The military is just a bunch of suckers and losers, as Trump said?
Nobody gives a shit about their oaths?
The destruction of the treasury is swell?
Using the American treasury to launder money for the gangsters fucking little kids is the legacy this county wishes to leave the world?
Because that's what this is. The child fucking ring (Epstien) wants more politicians and millionaires and billionaires paying under the table to fuck little kids.
The global arms business needs to keep slaughtering people.
The criminals in high places will sell their souls to Trump to launder money in this blatant racketeering.
It's cool, though. Charlton Heston once waved a flintlock, and Ronald Reagan rode a HORSE!

Did inflation lead to the demise of the US penny?
Within hours of another "yippy" #Treasury #Bond auction, the #US #Congress approved sweeping task cuts (mostly to rich folk).
In the secondary market the 30-year treasuries are now past 5%. Pressure mounts on the #Housing market.
Over at the #FT a random commentator put it sharply: "It's going to be a Big Beautiful #Bankruptcy."

…the downgrade essentially warns investors globally not to lend money to Washington at such low interest rates. The yield on the 10-yr #Treasury climbed to 4.49% from 4.43% late Fri. That shows how much in interest the US govet has to pay in order to borrow money for 10 yrs, & it was briefly above 4.55% earlier Mon morning.
Perhaps even more joltingly, the yield on a 30-yr Treasury leaped back above 5% before receding, up from less than 4% in Sept. That’s a significant move for the #bond market.
