Republican US Representative Lauren Boebert tweeted this message: “The Internal Revenue Service bought nearly $700K in ammunition earlier this year which begs the questions, why do their agents need guns to do their job and who are the IRS arming their agents against?” Read the disturbing list of government agencies that have also been stockpiling guns and ammo.
List of other government agencies stockpiling guns and ammo:
During former President Barack Obama’s time in office, multiple federal agencies had been buying up exorbitant quantities of ammunition after his signature gun control legislation failed in Congress in 2013.
For example, the Department of Homeland Security had stockpiled 1.6 billion rounds of .40 caliber and 9 mm ammunition — enough to prosecute a 24-year war based on the amount of ammunition expended during the Iraq war’s peak.
- Department of Energy: approximately $50,000 worth of M-16 fully automatic rifles
- General Services Administration: approximately $16,000 in shotguns and Glocks
- Bureau of Reclamations: approximately $697,000 for firearms and ammunition
- EPA: almost $70,000 for ammunition
- Smithsonian: approximately $42,500 for ammunition
- Social Security: approximately $61,000 for ammunition
- $426,268 on hollow-point bullets, including orders from the Forest Service, National Park Service, Office of Inspector General, Bureau of Fiscal Service, as well as Drug Enforcement Administration, U.S. Marshals, and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The latter three, sure, but the Forest Service, National Park Service, and Inspector General’s Office?
- Bureau of Engraving and printing: approximately $100,000 on firearms
- U.S. Mint: almost $180,000 for ammunition
- Bureau of Fiscal Services: approximately $672,000 on ammunition and firearms
- Department of Agriculture: $1.1 million for weapons and ammunition
Offline is a documentary on the inevitability of the Earth being slammed by a mega solar flare – not the common type that interrupts communications and creates a light show in the Northern skies – but the big brothers thousands of times more powerful. These monsters deliver enough energy to blow apart the master transformers that supply the planet’s energy grids. When that happens, the lights go out for longer than anyone wants to think about. These X-Class solar storms hit the Earth every 150 years, on average. The last one arrived 156 years ago. We are overdue (

Creating a domestic Army is what this looks like.
My guess is it is not target practice. Have read even the post office was given umpteen weapons. Do not know if this is true.
Regardless government has some massive firepower. Would they use it on US citizens? Damn right they would if it ever gets to that level. They can even get UN troops to help if needed.
Indeed, Obama’s nazi brown shirts. They certainly aren’t going to be hiring those with a conscience or bent towards The Constitution and smaller govt…
If you thought targeting of conservatives was a thing in the past… it seems they plan to target them all.
Here in Banada run by Castro junior, many of the public agencies have been integrated to act and support policing activities. For example, city police now work with RCMP to patrol rural areas (not a good thing IMO as city cops are usually of a different mindset that can create more problems) – also DNR game & fish now take part in raids etc. Too many cops nowadays trolling for job justification aka authoritarian police state.
Western governments are obviously now waging war against their own citizens. It follows that they would need more weaponry as they become more hostile toward us. These Western welfare-warfare states are beyond repair and are soon to be both morally and fiscally bankrupt. Let them continue their outrageous and embarrassing antics as we break free from their tyranny and figure out how to survive and prosper without them.
