@LrgK9 - Find one person who was audited over $600. If you fail to report income, the IRS will send you a notice with any additional tax you may owe. That is not a real audit where they go over your return.
In the past, I twice received a letter from the IRS saying I owed money. There were reasons that were not obvious that I was correct. In both cases I sent a letter explaining the situation and that resolved the situation- I didn't have to pay anything.
It will be interesting to see what happens with Hegseth. The audit might have been politically motivated, but if he owes taxes he should pay - right?
It will be interesting to see what Musk uncovers with the SSA. I want any fraud to be ended. But he hasn't shown any proof of it yet. I'm sure he can improve their processes. But do it and then tell us instead of just trying to grab headlines. Too many people making statements that have yet to be proved.
