July 9, 2015: WSJ Wisconsin’s Friend at the IRS ~~Emails show a common cause in restricting political speech.~~

"...Emails we’ve seen show that between 2011 and 2013 the two were in contact on multiple occasions, sharing articles on topics including greater donor disclosure and Wisconsin’s recall elections. The emails indicate the two were also personal friends who met for dinner and kept in professional touch. “Are you available for the 25th?” Ms. Lerner wrote in January 2012. “If so, perhaps we could work two nights in a row.”....

...Mr. Kennedy’s GAB work also became ammunition for other investigators pursuing high-profile conservative nonprofits, including Texas-based True the Vote. In an October 2012 letter to True the Vote founder Catherine Engelbrecht, Maryland Democratic Rep. Elijah Cummings cited the Wisconsin GAB’s criticism of True the Vote’s methods reviewing petitions to recall Mr. Walker and said the results “would not have survived legal challenges.”

In a memo to “Interested Parties” in 2012, Obama for America General Counsel Bob Bauer praised Mr. Kennedy’s GAB for having taken “swift action in the aftermath of [True the Vote’s] involvement in the June recall elections.” Mr. Bauer described the GAB’s response as evidence that “Elected officials in many swing states are not waiting and taking their chances that True the Vote acts to disrupt the electoral process on November 6th or during the early voting period.”

After filing for tax-exempt status for True the Vote, Ms. Englebrecht says she was subjected to two IRS business audits, two personal audits, and was contacted several times by the FBI and inspected by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and Occupational Safety and Health Administration......

Just like there was, and I am sure is a reconstituted, “journolist” for Leftist, that is mainstream, journalists to coordinate their attacks on conservatives, there’s probably a “regulatolist” of regulators coordinating their hit jobs.

Some conservative groups have alleged that they were unfairly audited and investigated after applying for tax exemption.

Alleged? What is known already proves this beyond a shadow of doubt. Just not in a court of law. Yet.
