Thomas Massie slams "lying" Fact checkers over IRS recruitment program tweet
twitter ^ | Aug 18 | Rep. Thomas Massie

@RepThomasMassie

Retweeting this for @billdmccarthy who thinks he’s a fact checker but he either can’t read or he chose to lie. This tweet got 5 million impressions and the regime just couldn’t let that stand. I’ll repeat what I said “This is an actual IRS recruiting program.”

@RepThomasMassie

Bill’s lyin’ fact check:

@billdmccarthy

New @AFPFactCheck: US GOP Congressman Thomas Massie claimed to show photos of IRS recruits learning to use guns and make arrests. But his tweet was misleading; the photos are outdated and show college students with toy guns during a mock IRS investigation.

Massie is not happy with the “fact checkers”. He’s tweeting about it right now ...

Fart Checkers are nothing but far left clowns without a clue about anything. Morons.

Does it really matter?

They are actual IRS photos and exercises.

They are doing training.

Does it matter they are old photos?

They are hiring for people to do this exact kind of stuff in the photos, regardless of the age of the photos.

If its the video I saw, it was accountants and not students, but they were just demonstrating to them what the real FBI agents do. A bunch of office bound nerds got to play agent for a day, in a team building exercise I presume.

I’m talking about a video where they ‘raid’ a empty conference room with two ‘bad guys’. One has a blue hat with something wrote on it. Anyone know what it said?

Umm, even if this is not an official recruiting activity, visit schools to show what the IRS does is actually a recruiting activity. Fact checkers lie.

Guns? IRS ‘investigation’? Hmmmm??
Sounds like training to me!
