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?

Fair tax. No more IRS. That will fix problem.
Time for the taxpayers to shut this agency down and don’t think that we cannot do it!!!!!
Obama brought Chicago style government to DC! I would think a lot of blackmail has been going around DC!
I wonder if the emails that they “can’t find” from Lois Lerner are mixed in with these 1.1 million pages? LOL
Damn pukes…
they are all traiders
this president, has done more to harm not only the United States, but the entire world. He has assisted in the destabilization of the entire planet, he has done more to cause more wars, and future wars, he has done more to destabilize this country, then any other president, or any other enemy or adversary of the United States, so I say to Congress, and to the Senate, impeach this man, before one more person dies,before America loses all credibility, loses all of her allies,and before this administration clauses the next Civil War in America, it is the job of Congress, and the House of Representatives to protect the Constitution and the citizens from this type of leadership, or lack of leadership, if there was a spy , in this position, this is exactly what that Spy would be Doing ,to undermine this country and cause diversity, between government officials, and the citizens, and between all the races that makes this country strong, this man is a cancer to mankind, what words need to be spoke, or actions to be taken, before the individuals responsible for the protection, of the Constitution, and the citizens of the United States, are destroyed forever ?
