January is a time of new beginnings in Washington. A new Congress. A new Republican-led House. A new speaker, Kevin McCarthy. New investigations into Biden by GOP-helmed committees.\nAnd now, in light of all of the above, there\u2019s a new effort from the White House to go on offense against Republicans like never before.\nLike so many Washington trends these days, it started with a tweet.\xa0\n\u201cIt\u2019s a giant tax cut for rich tax cheats. Bill #1 from the new House GOP,\u201d Ron Klain, the very online White House chief of staff, wrote in a Monday afternoon tweet about an effort to roll back Biden\u2019s IRS funding boost. Later that evening, VP Kamala Harris echoed the sentiment, accusing House Republicans of \u201crushing to \u2026 allow too many millionaires, billionaires and corporations to cheat the system.\u201d\nOn its face, those messages can seem fairly run-of-the-mill. Playbook deputy editor Zack Stanton and co-author Eugene Daniels discuss how a closer look reveals the change at hand \u2014 one informed by a few key calculations.\nSubscribe to the POLITICO Playbook newsletter\nRaghu Manavalan is the host and senior editor of POLITICO's Playbook Daily Briefing.Jenny Ament is the executive producer of POLITICO Audio.
