Acting commissioner of the IRS Melanie Krause announced plans to resign after a controversial agreement was reached between the DHS and the IRS to allow ICE access to taxpayer data. Krause, who has been serving as the acting IRS head, learned of the agreement only after it was publicly released by the Treasury Department, prompting her decision to step down. The deal allows ICE to request taxpayer information to aid in deporting illegal immigrants who have failed to comply with court orders to leave the US. This arrangement has sparked concerns over privacy violations and the potential misuse of sensitive taxpayer data. America's electronic gulag just became larger. The US is heading towards a future where any federal law-enforcement officer in the US conducting a "Terry stop" or border inspection will see whether the person has debts, unpaid civil fines, delinquent taxes, or outstanding school/auto/home loans.
