The White House rejected calls on Friday for a special prosecutor to look into lost IRS emails and the inappropriate targeting of conservative groups, saying Republican investigations have failed to find a smoking gun.

Essentially, “Republicans haven’t found anything so why investigate?”

These people deserve scorn & ridicule. Laugh in their face.

The missing emails are the smoking gun (one of them at least).

It's not the evidence, it's the seriousness of the charge!

The point of having a special prosecutor IS to find a smoking gun. If we knew of one, we wouldn’t need a special prosecutor. But their blantant cover-up, well beyond anything the Nixon Administration ever did, is preventing discovery without one.

Lost emails for 7 people. Crashed hard drives. Lost backups. Lying under oath. Failure for the White House to produce emails.

That is a whole lot of smoking.

What do they call firing the backup company and 7 crashed hard drives? That is a gun that is on fire.
