And it ain't over yet. They'll double-down on harassing her and her business.

Lovely lady who has put up with the tyranny and harassment the Obama admin visits upon conservatives.

She holds her head high and handles it all with grace, but she will not stand down. Good for her!

“First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.”

German Pastor Martin Niemöller who was sent to a concentration camp in 1937

The easy thing I can't understand about Congress is, who in the IRS can call the FBI on someone? How about the BATF? EPA, OSHA? Can you imagine a Middle level bureaucrat picking up the phone ans siccing the BATF on someone they audited?

Why not just call the BATF guy that was sent there and ask them under oath who sent them? With the FBI being in on it, they are doubtful to do any kind of investigation. With the BATF, EPA, and OSHA all paying a visit, probably one of them will give up their boss that OK'd the trip to Houston to harass this lady. Surely there is a paper trail for the airlines with someone signing off on the plane tickets. I bet in 30 minutes I could get 30 names to call before the committee under oath. They would all know that they are in jeopardy of perjury with their gubmint pension on the line.

The "little" people will give these guys up so quick your head would spin. At some point Learner would have to give up her boss or go down herself and no immunity would be needed.

I blame the Repubs for being stuck on stupid. If Lois thinks she's safe, then go around her. What would a detective do?

I haven’t read anything that has made me more angry than this article.

I’m an 81 year old who always had a modicum of pride and trust in the government.

No more.

This persecution of Catherine Engelbrecht and "True the Vote" by Obama's IRS and congressional 'Rats offers very convincing evidence that cheating and fraud in the electoral process are an important part of Democrat campaign strategy (and have been for years). Needless to say, the 'rats are scared like hell about the potential "damage" groups like "True the Vote" can do their prospects at the polls.

Yet the 'Rats still lie blatantly by claiming that election fraud is no problem. Furthermore, their MSM lackeys repeat that mantra and brainwash their audiences into thinking that there is hardly any problem with the integrity of the American election system, then build on that lie by contending that reasonable attempts to clean up the election process (such as the popular photo voter ID requirement) are "racist."

Engelbrecht should sue Cummings. Its clear from the emails he colluded with the IRS to suppress her Constitutional rights.

Darn shame Boehner isn’t seeking to sanction Cummings. The Dems had no problem denouncing Rush Limbaugh and he did nothing wrong.

Englebrecht filed an ethics complaint against Rep. Cummings in February and later amended it to include more damning recent revelations. Englebrecht, a valiant American patriot said: "I will not retreat, I will not surrender, I will not be intimidated. I will not ask Rep. Cummings, Lois Lerner, Barack Obama, or anyone else, for permission to exercise my constitutional rights.”

Newsmax reported: the similarities between questions asked of True the Vote by Cummings staffers and IRS officials at separate junctures strongly suggested inappropriate coordination between Cummings and the IRS.

=================================================== No question---the Cummings/ IRS paper trail of demeaning and subjugating conservatives leads straight to the WH criminals.

Giddy w/ success at winning the WH, the malevolent Chicago criminals had big plans---they started making ominous threats from the getgo.

=============================================

ALL OF THIS NEEDS TO GO VIRAL One of the Articles of Impeachment drawn up against Richard Nixon was merely "threatening" to use the Internal Revenue Service to selectively audit political opponents.

OBAMA HAS WEAPONIZED THE IRS AGAINST POLITICAL OPPONENTS ordering multiple covert campaigns of intimidation, threats, and persecution of tea party/conservative organizations, and those daring to criticize Obama's agenda.

<><> Seven lock-stepping Democrats scared-***tless of losing their seats ask the IRS to “Investigate” political opponents,

<><> Rep Elijah Cummings led the Democrat pack in smearing True the Vote patriot Catherine Englebrecht....

<><> the FBI, ATF, the IRS, and OSHA were sicced on Catherine Englebrecht, as she valiantly tried to improve the US voting system.

<><> Obama said Tea Parties were a "threat to democracy."

<><> The IRS (a tax-funded L/E agency) takes its marching orders from Democrat;

=======================================

THE LIKELY SUSPECTS----DEMS STOOP TO CONQUEUR
order IRS to act to save their seats by Alexander Bolton, The Hill, 2/13/14

Senate Democrats facing tough elections this year want the IRS to play a more aggressive role in regulating outside groups expected to spend millions of dollars on their races. In the wake of the IRS targeting scandal, the Democrats are publicly prodding the agency instead of lobbying them directly.

Dems are also careful to say the IRS should treat conservative and liberal groups equally, but they’re concerned about an impending tidal wave of attack ads funded by GOP-allied organizations. Much of the funding for those groups is secret, in contrast to the donations lawmakers collect, which must be reported publicly.

One of the most powerful groups is Americans for Prosperity, funded by the billionaire industrialists Charles and David Koch. It has already spent close to $30 million on ads attacking Democrats this election cycle. “If they’re claiming the tax relief, the tax benefit to be a nonprofit for social relief or social justice, then that’s what they should be doing,” said Sen. Mark Begich (D), who faces a competitive race in Alaska. “If it’s to give them cover so they can do political activity, that’s abusing the tax code. And either side."

<><><><>Asked if the IRS should play a more active role policing political advocacy by groups that claim to be focused on social welfare, Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) responded, “Absolutely. Both on the left and the right,” she said. “As taxpayers, we should not be providing a write-off to groups to do political activity, and that’s exactly what we’re doing.”

Shaheen called the glut of political spending by self-described social welfare groups that qualify under section 501(c) (4) of the tax code “outrageous.” Shaheen is in a good position now but could find herself embroiled in a tight campaign if former Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass) challenges her.<><><><>

Sen. Mark Pryor (Ark.), the most vulnerable Democratic incumbent, said the IRS has jurisdiction over 501(c)(4) groups, as well as charities, which fall under section 5/01(c)(3) of the tax code and sometimes engage in quasi-political activity.

“That whole 501(c)(3), 501(c)(4) [issue], those are IRS numbers. It is inherently an internal revenue matter,” he said. “There are two things you don’t want in political money, in the fundraising world and expenditure world. You don’t want secret money, and you don’t want unlimited money, and that’s what we have now.” --SNIP--
