Reality Check Exclusive: Cincinnati agent giving orders in IRS scandal?

CINCINNATI, OH (FOX19) -

The claim that the ongoing IRS scandal is limited to low level employees is falling apart.

The six Cincinnati workers we have identified, who sent scrutinizing letters to conservative groups with words including "patriot, liberty, tea party or 9-12" in their names are Mitchel Steele, Carly Young, Joseph Herr, Stephen Seok, Liz Hofacre and a woman identified only as Ms. Richards.

But was all of this done at the hands of a small group of Cincinnati employees working together? During Friday's congressional hearing, that appeared to be the theme. Now, that explanation just became less likely.

Thanks to two FOX19 sources connected to the IRS, we now understand the chain of command for these workers.

Mitchel Steele, Carly Young, Joseph Herr and Liz Hofacre are IRS agents. Stephen Seok is a supervisor IRS agent.

But according to the IRS employee directory that FOX19 has obtained exclusively, each of these agents has a different manager and then above them a different territory manager.

Looks like Cindy Thomas may be one to put the serious screws to.

The same person who leaked personal information of conservative groups to a liberal group. I’m sure it’s only a coincidence. I bet nothing will happen to her because Republicans are !@ssies.

Some low paid reporter at a local Fox TV station finds more facts on IRS misdeeds than all the big shots in DC & the big press. ???

Great find! Wonder if we can get hold of that directory to see who each of their managers report to!

Did I hear Issa say that they took several depositions today?

Put them under oath with limited immunity and work up from there.

Who’ll flip first? Biggest mortgage? Most kids?

Dismantling criminal gangs in a prison system was my pastime in an earlier age.

Everyone has a weak spot.

In May 1945, many Germans would say, "SS? Me? No, no. That was someone else! I was never in the SS! I was drafted into the Wehrmacht! I don't know anything about the SS!"

Some day, the IRS agents will try to tell the same story.

I didn’t hear anything about Issa today.
I watched the US Senate hearing.

Straight UP!

Next election should be about a flat/fair tax and all the money we can save putting these miserable asshole bureaucrats on the streets, trying to find a job in the economy they helped destroy.
