Stated reasons may or may not be actual.
If you recall these were not just accountants but agents who carry guns etc.
I see this as very similar to the ICE situation. Biden has loyalty and power in IRS and so gave it money to help him police. As the government gets more corrupted I think we’ll find more agencies weaponized like this.
The equivalent question is can you provide proof that ICE provides power and is loyal to Trump?
I don’t think you would say that’s a deep state conspiracy.
