25 percent of Internal Revenue Service (IRS) employees are are preparing to take buyout offered by the Trump administration and resign from the agency, according to a report.

CNN, first reporting the “staggering” figure, notes that 22,000 of the IRS’s 90,000 employees plan to accept buyout offers and resign. IRS staff faced a Tuesday morning deadline to opt into the latest “deferred resignation” buyouts.

“This is enormous,” sources told the anti-Trump news outlet.

In the initial round, approximately 4,700 IRS employees, or 5% of the workforce, accepted the buyout offer.

The IRS could see major reduction in size. Good.

If the figure isn't at least 85,001, then the number certainly isn't large enough and sure as hell isn't "staggering".
