Original Note:
Biden did not try to hire 87k new IRS agents. In 2022 the Inflation Reduction Act approved $80 billion over 10 years to fund 87k full-time positions at the IRS. This includes positions across every part of the agency with the estimated majority (52k) being replacements. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2023/01/11/politics/republican-irs-funding-87000-agents https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/written-testimony-of-charles-p-rettig-commissioner-internal-revenue-service-before-the-senate-finance-committee-on-the-filing-season-and-the-irs-budget
