@briantylercohen @tedcruz Cruz is being disingenuous. The screenshot he posted depicts the major duties listed in the job description for an IRS Criminal Investigator-Special Agent, who are the only IRS employees who are armed. He is wrongfully implying such duties are applicable for all IRS “agents”.
