We should shield her? Lois Lerner fears retaliation from tea party if transcripts are allowed public
BizPac Review ^ | November 20, 2017 | Luis Miguel

Posted on 11/20/2017 5:30:38 PM PST by Cheerio

Lois G. Lerner, the former director of the IRS’s Exempt Organizations Unit, filed court documents on Thursday requesting the sealing in perpetuity of tapes and transcripts of depositions she gave in court this year, Washington Times reports.

Lerner claimed members of her family, including “young children,” have received death threats due to her role in the IRS targeting scandal, in which conservative and tea party groups had their tax-exempt status denied or delayed until after the 2012 election.

“She’s lying about the threats”.

Sure she is. I’d bet she doesn’t have a happy minute a day in her miserable life.

Interesting thought. Of course, Pres Romney would probably have been Obama Lite or HRC Lite.

There was another similar “what if” on American Thinker today asking what would have happened if the Dems had gotten rid of Slick during his impeachment hearing. They were postulating what 10 years of President Gore would have been like and how that would have been MUCH better for Democrats in the long run.

Take away her pension, and book her on Dancing With The Stars.

Dancing the Tyburn Jig.

Remember this picture coming out during the hearings and thinking what an arrogant bitch .... a Nazi, or Gestapo type, from the post WW II era on trial and in Nuremburg.
Lived in Cincinnati for 17 years, from 1992 thru 2009, during the Tea Party years and attended some of the earliest rallies.

You mean to say that some party injured by her actions might become unbalanced and in a fit of rage do her bodily harm?

Gosh. That would be terrible. Just terrible.

Release the transcripts. Let the games begin.

Note to Lois. Hiding out can be your friend. You should consider a bunker.

Ugh, the Goreacle for 10 years would of been unimaginable!

One thing for sure, we'd all be driving electric cars and paying carbon taxes.

Boiled Rope and a Lamp Post. What could be simpler?

I'm guessing that could be the only death threats she is getting but they would be the consequences of her own traitorous actions. Abusing the power of the government to go after the opposition thus helping 0bama and the democrats to hold on to power is very, very bad.

I can understand why she and other corruptocrats are feeling the noose tightening around their necks.

When you ‘turn’ the fed govt from its role of protecting the rights of its citizens into an actual enemy of the people, that’s called HIGH TREASON in my book.

This b!tch & the entire O’muslim regime should be tried for just that...If we only had an AG and a non-corrupt DOJ. /rolleyes

Oh yeah I agree, she should be afraid ... her misuse of power is along the lines of queens that had their heads cut off. So any images in her mind that might be driving her insane ... you get what you ask for, and her action asked.

The left banked so much of their evil on the regime holding power and thinking the evil would never see the light of day. The swamp was held up by a New Orleans Levy. Then along came president Katrina.

My gut tells me Obama knew about fast and furious and the IRS. If you were lerner would you just direct this without back-up. It would be legal suicide. The only thing that lets her walk is the congress mis balless.

If there are ‘death threats’ the witch needs to contact the FBI and have them find the person...

My guess is IF there are death threats they’re fake. Just like most everything said by leftists:

Typical lib. Does the act without any consideration of possible consequences, then when they are about to come home to roost, she wants extraordinary protection. Wants someone else to pay the price for her illegal and dumb-axx actions. I say no. I want to know exactly what she and her cohorts in crime are guilty of. If there are negative outcomes for her, good. That serves as a disincentive for others to commit similar crimes.
