IRS chief tells House panel he does not deserve impeachment
Yahoo News ^ | September 22, 2016 | ALAN FRAM

The chief of the IRS fended off Republican demands Wednesday that he should lose his job, telling the House Judiciary Committee that he'd made statements about missing emails that later proved wrong but had done nothing to merit impeachment.

At a four-and-one-half hour hearing on whether to oust him, John Koskinen repeatedly said he'd cooperated fully with congressional investigators probing why his agency — before he joined it — subjected tea party groups seeking tax exemptions to excessive scrutiny. Conservatives leading a campaign-year effort to remove him said Koskinen has headed an agency that destroyed emails investigators wanted and he should pay the price.

He’s right — he doesn’t deserve impeachment. He deserves jail time.

He doesn’t care. If he is impeached, he will probably get an important position in the Clinton Foundation or a job as Presidential Advisor to Obozo.

Stop wasting time with small change Congress. Impeach Obama and Lynch!

Rush covered this the other day. He lied to Congress, demonstrably. Impeach him.

Really, he shouldn’t have been allowed back into government. He was a disaster as the Y2K czar.

He deserves impeachment AND JAIL for perjury and obstruction of justice.

The IRS destroyed subpoenaed evidence.

If you don’t go to jail for that, then what?

Put him in jail NOW, AT THE MEETING, and keep him there until he orders his people to turn over everything.

Losing his job should be the least of his problems. Losing his front teeth to his big black boyfriend in prison should be his first concern.

He’ll be the IRS Compliance officer for the Clinton Foundation/slush fund. Probably get a fat seven digit salary, too.

No wonder the FBI keeps dropping the ball when it comes to terrorists such as the Boston Marathon Bombers and others. They have Comey who caused extensive damage to the reputation of the FBI.

You're absolutely correct!!! John Koskinen Deserves Jail Time and a writ denying him any future employment with the United States Government or any Civil Job. Jail time first!!!!
