DEI is at the heart of everything the Biden administration does. And that means racial discrimination is at the heart of everything it does.
The Internal Revenue Service said Thursday that it has taken steps to address a wide disparity in audit rates between black taxpayers and other filers and is more closely examining the returns of larger numbers of wealthy people and major companies.
In an annual update, the agency said, “We are overhauling compliance efforts to advance our commitment to fair, equitable and effective tax administration and hold ourselves accountable to taxpayers we serve.”
Or certain taxpayers anyway.
A study from January 2023 involving university researchers and the Treasury Department found that IRS data-driven algorithms selected black taxpayers for auditing at up to 4.7 times the rate of non-black taxpayers.
Were the algorithms racist? What possible reason would the algorithms have just selected black people for no apparent reason?
“We have taken swift initial action to dramatically reduce the number of those audits. We have also made changes to the selection criteria for those audits,” IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel said.
Werfel, who was sworn in a little more than a year ago, has testified before Congress about the issue and wrote to the Senate Finance Committee last September that the IRS would make changes.
Werfel told reporters the discriminatory audits “degrade trust in our tax system.”
Does anyone actually trust the tax system? Under political pressure, the IRS will just shift over to targeting the ‘right sorts of people’ after being previously accused of targeting the ‘wrong sort of people.’

For the past 50 years, I have been guilty of filing taxes while being white. Will the IRS be introducing tax re-education camps?
JL says
Could it be that like most other crimes, black people are more likely to cheat on their taxes?
Ed says
54% of all audits done by the IRS are on people making less than $ 25,000 / year. FACT. The IRS is useless

The latest census we have to participate in is totally racist and antisemitic – did they as if you are from Hebrew descent? No—there is a selection saying Mid-Eastern – but not for Jew or Arab – which is a race not a religion – 2ndly its a culture. But it is a DNA race. Now the globalist demonic puppet masters who pull the strings in the White House and CONgrASS that engineered the vile coup d’etat we are in from stolen 2020 election as well as pLandemic and the unreasonable power they exerted through their proxies of demoncrap state governors
is saying it will decrease audits on African Americans or black or whatever this season’s term d’jour is this season. How does the IRS know what race or culture a tax return is? Relational databases with Ai algorithms? If we don’t get President Trump back in the White House, USA is going to be a full blown cesspool swamp banana republic dictatorship as it is morphing into now. Then, like any banana republic, there will be revolutions and a violent coup to take over the White House and CONgerASS and every f’ng blue state in USA including Arizona, Michigan, California — there will be no choice for current generations the future generations. From my words to YHVH’S MIND!!! And possibly the other way around! From YHVH’S MIND to my mind!!!

What form do I need to fill to make corrections about my race. I’d like to change it to black.
Chris Shugart says
Just fill in the box that asks you to specify your race, and enter “black.” But you must maintain the conviction that you are indeed a person of color, otherwise it’s fraud. And, as you probably know, self-identification cannot be questioned.

You white devils better pay your “fair share” though. Or woe be to you …..

Remember that disagreeing with this politically motivated racist policy would result in an audit.
Arnold Jackson says
If they really want to be fair they have computers that can compile audit lists without utilizing racial demographics..
Otherwise it would just be another racist action because audits will be dependent upon skin color.
