Clarence Earl Gideon must be turning over in his grave.

Imagine a judicial system where criminal prosecutors had the power to disbar criminal defense lawyers. How long do you think it would take the United States Supreme Court to issue a unanimous decision declaring that system unconstitutional?

Yet the IRS is empowered to punish with the full force of its bureacratic power tax lawyers and other taxpayer counsel whom it believes has violated its standards of conduct.

That IRS officials have the power to punish taxpayer representatives makes a mockery of the taxpayers’ right to counsel, the linchpin of the Taxpayer Bill of Rights.
