โ€‹House Oversight Committee ranking member Elijah Cummings (D., Md.) couldnโ€™t contain himself when talking about the IRSโ€™s lavish spending on conferences and training, including a โ€œridiculousโ€ Star Trek-parody video made by the agency.

โ€œI swear to god, I have looked at that video over and over again, and I swear I do not see the redeeming value,โ€ Cummings said, followed by a chuckle. โ€œI was up at 3 oโ€™clock this morning watching it, because I was trying to get to the redeeming value. Couldnโ€™t get there. I tried hard at it.โ€
