The internal situation of the IRS and the problem with Surf Hotel_2 Chapter 541: 198.
The internal situation of the IRS and the problem with Surf Hotel_2 Actually, such remarks were nothing out of the ordinary back then because, at that ti, the United States didn’t fear the Bolsheviks as it does now.
Additionally, at that ti, a fractured Soviet Union party was more in line with the interests of the United States, so there were many people who had made similar statents.
Er, such behavior could be called the United States’ policy at the ti!
However, tis change; with the current U.S.
Governnt’s fear of the Bolsheviks, resembling a tiger, as well as the actions of Arican radicals in the country last year, if such statents were made now…
...
It would be like a future U.S.
official announcing a boycott against all the correct things in the United States!
“Does this information help you?”
After finishing his story, Robert asked Donnie excitedly.
Donnie nodded and said, “It’s incredibly helpful!”
“So, can we take action now?” Robert asked.
Donnie waved his hand and said, “Let’s not rush, and we can’t be the ones to co forward!”
The IRS’s reputation is too well-known.
Even though Donnie had made Coshek Kevin leave the IRS, what about the people behind him?
What would those inside the IRS think?
The people behind Coshek Kevin certainly wouldn’t just let things slide.
As one of the three pillars of power in the U.S., Congress isn’t that easy to handle.
And within the IRS, perhaps so of Coshek Kevin’s enemies would be happy about this developnt, but their joy would also co with heightened vigilance towards Donnie.
After all, if Donnie could take down Coshek Kevin, it ant that he could just as well take them down, and such a situation is sothing no politician would want to see!
“By the way, have you received any news from Archido Bowen?”
Donnie asked.
“Yes!” As he spoke, Robert took out another stack of docunts from his bag and handed them to Donnie, saying, “These are the files Archido Bowen sent to Block Tavern yesterday!”
Donnie took the docunts and reviewed them carefully.
In the IRS, there was one director and five deputy directors.
With the director retiring this year and staying low-profile, no longer handling specific cases, it turned out that among the five deputy directors, Coshek Kevin was performing the best.
Even the White House had leaked intentions to appoint Coshek Kevin as director of the IRS once the current director stepped down.
Therefore, the relationship between the director and Coshek Kevin was very good, and they would hardly reject any of Kevin’s suggestions.
Apart from Coshek Kevin, there was another strong deputy director in the Bureau of Investigation nad Michael Ribeiro.
Unlike Kevin, who was parachuted in as a deputy director of the IRS, Ribeiro had climbed from an IRS investigator to deputy director, genuinely having a group of loyalists within the IRS.
Moreover, more IRS investigators were willing to rally around Michael Ribeiro.
The two factions often quarreled over issues within the IRS, and the discord between them had beco an open secret.
However, as Coshek Kevin was now 90% sure to take over as the director of the IRS this year, so investigators began to realign their allegiances!
After going through the docunts, Donnie scratched his head.
If possible, Michael Ribeiro seed to be a very suitable ally for himself.
However, in Archido Bowen’s report, it was specifically noted that Ribeiro had an upright and serious personality, was principled, and had even been incorruptible by nurous U.S.
officials and businessn who had tried and failed to corrupt him.
Not only did they fail, but they were also subjected to a relentless investigation by Ribeiro.
If at this ti Donnie approached Michael Ribeiro to conspire against Coshek Kevin, it would not only be ineffective, but it could also make Ribeiro take notice of Donnie himself!
If Coshek Kevin were brought down only for Michael Ribeiro to continue investigating Donnie, that would be pointless!
“Look into Michael Ribeiro’s family situation,” Donnie finally said noncommittally.
Although this person was hard to win over, at the very least, he seed to be a decent candidate at this stage.
If they could find his weakness, there was still so hope!
Cleary, Robert had already read the report and did not fully understand Donnie’s instructions, saying, “Why pick such a tough nut to crack?
That deputy director nad Gabe Hill ndy seems pretty approachable, doesn’t he?”
Gabe Hill ndy was also one of the deputy directors of the IRS.
Donnie gestured and said, “Although the U.S.
Governnt is quite ineffective, we should not underestimate them.
As a powerful departnt, the IRS needs a strong and well-backed person to lead, to fulfill its role.
Frankly speaking, the IRS is one of the faces of the U.S.
Governnt.
As long as it has not rotted to the core, such a departnt will certainly choose a leader acceptable to all.”
“When I say acceptable to all, it’s not just a simple proposition.
In plain terms, politics is a ga of mutual compromises.
The Gabe Hill ndy you just ntioned is more tactful and also has close relations with so people in Congress, but for that very reason, the Harding Administration would never accept such a person.”
