Trump to Fire the 88,000 IRS Agents Biden Hired to Harass Americans or Reassign Them to Border Patrol Duty | 27 Jan 2025 | On Saturday, President Donald Trump said during his post-inauguration rally that he will either fire the 88,000 Internal Revenue Service (IRS) agents that Joe Biden hired to harass middle-class American taxpayers, or reassign them to border patrol duties. "They hired, were trying to hire 88,000 new workers to go after you, and we're in the process of developing a plan to either terminate all of them or maybe we move them to the border," Trump said. "I think we're going to move them to the border where they are allowed to carry guns. You know, they're so strong on guns. But these people are allowed to carry guns. So we will probably move them to the border."
