Funny; I seem to recall a similar report about the IRS from the last shortage as well.

It comes up every couple of years. Here's one from 2016:

So, what could they be arming up for? Asking for a friend.

Pesky tax evaders. Nobody likes a revenuer

Identity theft too. They actually investigate a lot of stuff:

Lets see.. something like they take our money and give it to people who spend it like its their money and not ours. So in essence they are thieves.

Maybe they’re going to take down Capone.

Similar to the raising of fuel prices to "wean" us mere mortals from fossil fuels.

So they bought 5 million rounds of ammo for $700,000. Bull S--t
So much second and third hand outdated information quoted. Manufactured news.
From the report.

According to the Government Accountability Office the ammunition breakdown at the time included:

• 3,151,500 Pistol and revolver rounds
• 1,472,050 Rifle rounds
• 367,750 Shotgun rounds
• 56,000 Fully automatic firearm rounds

Just a other means to THE end game, for the marxist in Washington.

Wonder what they pay per round?

 

[BlueWater]

Hm. $10M in 8yrs (2006-2014) seems a pittance, as compared to the size of the overall ammo market. Can't imagine that their purchases, alone, have much (if anything) to do with tight supplies right now. Even $700K in ammo this past quarter doesn't amount to much. About what I'd expect, for an agency ~5000 firearms and the range/practice time to support them.

It's Trump and Putin that are colluding to make this stuff happen! Ya gotta keep up with world affairs and the news. Come on man!

What makes ammo "fully automatic firearm rounds"? Pre-linked or something?
