IRS must publicize sensitive tea party data obtained in targeting, Obama administration says
Washington Times ^ | 4/12/16 | Stephen Dinan

The IRS says it has stopped targeting the tea party — but three years later, the tax agency is still holding on to the sensitive information it pried from the conservative groups through invasive questions, and officials are even vowing to make the answers public. Groups caught up in the scandal say that is proof the targeting is continuing, and they want the IRS to expunge the information or, at the very least, to make sure it is never released. Obama administration officials insist they have stopped targeting but say the groups are at fault for following the misguided IRS requests

Spit.

Now we know WHY the Republicans didn't go after Lois Lerner.

Because they're the same party as the Democrats...

The GOP probably hates the Tea Party way more than the rats do. Ultimately the TP could take down the rotten to the core GOPe.

Meanwhile, the perp who received kudos from her fellows and superiors for her fine work in persecuting real conservatives, Lois Lerner, is enjoying her 100K a year public service pension.

I believe that Lois might be a big Teddie Bare fan. Why?
Because she wants to continue enjoying her 100K pension.

This is just more examples of Fascism by the Democrats. The things they are doing to others are unspeakable. If the Republicans targeted a Democrat group, all hell would break lose.

...misguided IRS requests for information

Somebody in the IRS developed this list of misguided questions. I would wonder whether those folks were punished if I didn't already know they weren't. And wouldn't it be interesting to know who directed the questions be formulated? And it would be interesting to know who approved the content of these questions? Maybe the agency's Inspector General will answer these requests, but then again, who am I kidding?

No surprise that Obama is using the IRS data for targeting, the information has been shared with the DNC and the Obama Campaign using their network of private servers , of which Hillary’s bathroom server was merely one.

This is fascism, pure and simple.

And Obama meets the historical definition of fascist.

Know thy enemy in order to defeat him.( Use public ridicule.)Read this:

A GREAT issue for Trump to take control of...if he wasn’t so busy sounding like a cry baby and saying stupid things.

All he needs to do is promise his Justice Department will do a full-up INVESTIGATION and will put people in JAIL that are found to have broken the law.

...and this is just one example.

charges need to be filed against those that used the IRS as jackboots in order to achieve political power
