The IRS is no threat to him personally, since the Republicans have ensured that it doesn’t have the funding to go after the BIG tax dodgers like himself.
As for the DHS, ICE SHOULD be a threat to him since he broke visa rules and as such is technically in the country illegally, but that would require for the law to apply to politically connected billionaires…
Hope he doesn’t. I’m afraid they will use the IRS to go after the poor and the shredded remains of the middle class and ignore anyone actually committing tax fraud.

That’s the fun/infuriating part: due to a lack of funding, that’s already the case no matter who’s in charge of the IRS!
It’s much more expensive for the IRS to audit the big fish and, knowing that, the GOP have made sure that they’re underfunded enough that their billionaire overlords like Musk can cheat on their taxes with impunity and never get audited.
So for every dollar of funding the IRS gets, the nation gets five dollars back. If the department of government efficiency wasn’t a sick joke, they’d love the IRS. Imagine if you had such an easy investment. Quintuple your money in a year.
Funny how Musk doesn’t seem in a hurry to go after the IRS or the DHS…

Unfortunate news for you. The IRS falls under the US Treasury. They’ve already got it.

Yeah but it’s going to get so much fucking worse.
Undoubtedly.
