It’s really a full time job to keep up with all the Obama admin scandals. Maybe that’s the point?
The IRS and the FBI are working hand-in-hand to take down conservative groups. The IRS has illegally handed over 1.1 million pages of confidential data to the FBI for the purpose of targeting conservatives.
2014 06 09 DEI Jordan to Koskinen IRS DOJ Disks Tax Exempt Applications
The perversion of law enforcement agencies for political ends is starkly revealed by the fact that in 2010, as part of its effort to stem the Tea Party movement, the IRS gave the FBI disks containing more than 1.1 million pages of documents on Section 501 non-profits, so that the FBI could selectively prosecute conservative groups and donors.
The facts, as we know them so far, were laid out yesterday in a letter from Congressmen Darrell Issa and Jim Jordan to John Koskinen, Commissioner of the IRS. The letter includes a series of emails that the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform has finally obtained, after more than a year of stonewalling by the Obama administration. The IRS originally told the House committee–falsely–that the disks contained only publicly available filings by the non-profit organizations. But the IRS later admitted that it had illegally transferred confidential taxpayer information to the FBI.
The IRS’s purpose was explicitly political. Sarah Ingram, Lois Lerner’s predecessor in charge of tax-exempt organizations at the IRS, wrote in a September 21, 2010 email, the subject of which was a favorable front-page story in the New York Times:
Thanks, as always, for the excellent support from Media. I do think it came out pretty well. The “secret donor” theme will continue–see Obama salvo today and Diane Reehm (sp).
The reference is to Diane Rehm, an NPR radio host. So the IRS, at its highest levels, was trying to advance the Democratic Party’s “secret donor” theme on the eve of the 2010 election, and breaking the law to do so. Could someone maybe go to jail one of these days?

What difference does it make now? The IRS and FBI better take notice that we the people are about to diminish their jobs.
when are we going to stand up for America ?
WHO IS GOING TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT????
Now they are saying they have lost some of Lerner’s emails! This is absolutely ridiculous as they are saying it’s because of a hard drive crash! These people really do believe we’re brain dead! Do they expect us to believe government computers aren’t backed up several times over? It’s time to start locking these liars up! Starting with Lerner! Destroying evidence is a frikkin’ felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison and one helluva hefty fine!
