TRUMP: “I will obliterate the deep state. We will say no on 87,000 IRS agents who want to take your money and much worse than that.”
Former President Donald Trump detailed his Agenda 47 policy vision while speaking at a Republican Party of Iowa dinner in Des Moines Friday, a day after special prosecutor Jack Smith’s team brought new charges against him in the Mar-a-Lago White House documents case.
“I will obliterate the deep state,” Trump vowed. “We will say no on 87,000 IRS agents who want to take your money and much worse than that.”“They want to weaponize the IRS just like they’ve weaponized the Justice Department and the FBI,” he added. “And, by the way, if I weren’t running, I would have nobody coming after me, or if I was losing by a lot, I would have nobody coming after me.”
Trump, under a time limit of minutes like candidates before him, then spoke about his plans to secure the southern border and combat illegal immigration, as well as his vision for America’s education system: On day one, I will sign an executive order to cut federal funding for any school pushing critical race theory transgender insanity and other inappropriate racial, sexual or political content on children. I will keep men out of women’s sports and you know nobody’s been tougher on that than me. How ridiculous is that? And I will sign a law prohibiting child sexual mutilation – can you believe we even have to say this? – in all 50 states.
