An example (here) with more than 2.1 million views at the time of publishing reads, “America has nearly 400% more IRS agents than Border Patrol agents.” Another example can be seen (here). A smaller subset within each agency are considered law enforcement agents. Border patrol agents and CBP officers within the office of field operations are considered law enforcement, according to a CBP spokesperson. The number of law enforcement agents within the IRS is therefore significantly lower than in the CBP. The U.S. Internal Revenue Service does not have 400 percent more total personnel or law enforcement agents than the U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
