Bad enough, since the IRS really isn’t supposed to be doing its own shooting. :)
Out of control government
...GAO: IRS Had 4,487 Guns; 5,062,006 Rounds of Ammunition...
Kept at the office for intimidation of the “customers.”
And the IRS needs gun for what?
Raids that another agency should
be doing.

Almost every federal agency has some form of law enforcement. That is the FIRST thing I would shut down as President. If they want to stay in law enforcement, fine. Go to the border.
We need ONLY the FBI, the Secret Service (protective section only; counterfeiting can go FBI, and the Marshals. All other needs can be covered by the FBI. If the agencies want to hire security to protect their buildings or to prosecute their own staff, that’s fine, but they have no jurisdiction outside of that.
For all the rhetoric, Trump has been a severe disappointment in this and many other areas. This budget shutdown is nonsense. Close several federal departments (education, energy, interior, etc.) and build a wall from there. The press hates him anyway, so what difference does criticism make.
Remember when Obama stated;
“”We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”
Now we know.....
