In no uncertain terms and with no hedging, The New York Times reports that the Obama Administration was aware of the fact that the IRS was targeting Tea Party groups as far back as June of 2012. The Treasury Department's Inspector General confirmed that he told senior Treasury officials in June of 2012, a full five months before Election Day:
The Treasury Department’s inspector general told senior Treasury officials in June 2012 he was investigating the Internal Revenue Service’s screening of politically active organizations seeking tax exemptions, disclosing for the first time on Friday that Obama administration officials were aware of the matter during the presidential campaign year.
We still don’t know for sure what the President knew or when he knew it, but this does confirm that the Administration was aware of the fact that Obama's political enemies were under fire by the IRS and covered that fact up during an election year.

If 0bama can plot to use the IRS to attack Republicans, spy on AP reporters, and lie to America about Benghazi and stand down any efforts to save SEALs, then he can surely orchestrate the biggest election fraud in United States history.. All kept quiet. All hidden from view. ‘True The Vote’ is about to dig deep into Allen West’s loss in St. Lucie and their Board of Elections fraud where 2,000 ballots suddenly appeared in her office overnight. Holder commandeered this fraud, nationwide. Holder MUST not be allowed to serve any longer. Book’em, Dano!!
how very correct you are my FRiend.
YEP....as someone has said....”WE live in Interesting times”....and they are likely to get more “interesting” than we would like.
Siren ping!!
Either the IG was doing a good act of contrition or he is really concerned and chagrined about this whole scandal.
I’m going with, he gets it. He is not in trouble yet I don’t think, he did what he was asked but he only did an audit... not an investigation. He found out what but not so much who and why.
Let the impeachment proceedings begin. This is truly the most corrupt regime in US history. I have been earnestly praying that this corrupt administration be exposed and disgraced. Thank you God!
Where is the one with his thumb up his butt and the one who collects blank envelopes of money?
There are FIVE little monkeys here aren’t there?
Fine, at least we KNOW he wont’ do anything.
...by the time this is done there will be 30
Which “Senior Officials?”
I WANT NAMES!!!!
That was my first thought ever since this story first broke.
This would be delicious. The little fish need to know about this. Jay Secula needs to get this underway in a class action lawsuit against all of the little fish. They deserve it, they are not innocent and just following orders.
We know from the trials at Nuremberg that following orders does not make one innocent of crimes against humanity or any other crime.
These are not taxpayers.
it would be interesting to know what the Times knew and when they knew it. If they spiked the story they are just as guilty as Obozo and Company.
Their boy Steven Miller is now saying that he doesn’t know who was responsible for this egregious breach of the law. But hasn’t someone already testified that two people were responsible for it and they had already been disciplined?
Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country!
Too many lies can confuse them.
I suspect that the Hildebeast is trying to get Benghazi out of the news.
The comments after the slimes article are ridiculous. The IRS was doing its job/doing the best it could/unclear rules/didn’t target anyone exclusively, etc. etc. etc.
Libs truly are mentally ill.
In a Bivens Action one must first demonstrate his civil rights have been violated.
