This Simple DOGE Action Regarding the IRS Website Login Button Is What I Voted For

In recent weeks, we've been seeing a lot of posts on social media from people who supported the Trump-Vance ticket who are pointing to actions taken by the administration over the last three months and noting, "This is what I voted for."

Among the actions are the ICE round-ups, the arrests of the Tren de Aragua gang members and their repatriation back to Venezuela, the significant reduction in force at the IRS, and the (pending what the courts decide) shuttering of the USAID - the Democrats' global pet project slush fund.

For others, it was the simpler things that still made a big impact and which were cause for celebration, like on Wednesday when President Trump signed the Maintaining Acceptable Water Pressure in Showerheads executive order, reversing the "low flow shower head" energy regulations that dated back to the Obama-Biden years and which deprived so many of the water pressure they deserved.

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has, of course, been a major player in a lot of this, to the extent that their involvement has been the basis for a number of the lawsuits against the Trump administration that are worming their way through the court system.

But while a lot of the media focus on DOGE has been related to their cost-cutting, fraud-uncovering, and workforce slimdowns, its work streamlining processes and just making things in general run smoother deserve big mentions as well.

Among them are recent actions taken to rework the IRS website. Anyone who has had to use it in the past knows that finding the login button could be a drag, with the government inexplicably placing it in the middle of the homepage.

Speaking from personal experience, I pay quarterly estimated taxes to Uncle Sam, and there has been more than one occasion when I've tried to log on late at night to the site to begrudgingly make that payment, and because I'm so tired sometimes it has taken me longer than it should have to locate the sign-in button.

But not anymore.

Recently, DOGE worked with an IRS engineer to move it to where it belonged after originally being told it would take over three months to do so:

On the http://IRS.gov website, the "log in" button was not in the top right on the navbar like it is on most websites. It was weirdly placed in the middle of the page below the fold.
An IRS engineer explained that the *soonest* this change could get deployed is July 21st... 103 days from now.
This engineer worked with the DOGE team to delete the red tape and accomplished the task in 71 minutes. See before/after pictures below.
There are great people at the IRS, who are simply being strangled by bureaucracy.

Needless to say, the definition of government inefficiency is it taking over three months to do something that could be done in just an hour or so.

That being said, one more button is needed to make the site complete:

The button we were looking for is, "Abolish the IRS." https://t.co/Y9EwlmLWMo

Wholeheartedly endorsed.

President Trump, Elon Musk, and DOGE are bringing much-needed accountability to our out-of-control government as they take a chainsaw to rampant waste, fraud, and abuse.
