Today conservative activist James O’Keefe III accused New York Governor Cuomo of targeting his group with document requests and a subpoena. FOX News reported:
Conservative activist James O’Keefe is accusing New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s administration of targeting his group with document requests and a subpoena, claiming the Democratic governor’s recent comments critical of conservatives “aren’t simply words.”
O’Keefe, whose Project Veritas is behind a series of hidden-camera investigations against left-leaning groups and causes, made the claims on the heels of the controversy over a recent Cuomo interview. In it, Cuomo blasted “extreme conservatives who are right-to-life, pro-assault-weapon, anti-gay” and said they “have no place” in New York. He later walked back his remarks, and said they were being taken out of context in the media.
But O’Keefe claimed that Cuomo’s government is acting on those words, revealing that the Department of Labor has hit his office in Westchester County, N.Y., with demands for financial documents for months. He compared it to IRS targeting of conservative groups nationwide.
“Governor Cuomo’s shocking words this past week aren’t simply words,” O’Keefe said in a statement. “Governor Cuomo and the New York Department of Labor are on a witch hunt, demanding all documents and financials since our founding. … His goal, of course, is to harass us and limit our effectiveness by tying us up in court. Just like President Obama used the IRS to target and suppress conservatives, Governor Cuomo is using his Department of Labor to do the same exact thing.”
A spokesman for the state labor office told The Daily Beast that it is legally required to ensure businesses pay their part of an unemployment insurance fund and provide information about outside contractors.

Just remeber what one of Obams’s mentors, Billy the Bomber Ayres said about all the enemies being rounded up, and the ones who can not be corrected would hae to be eliminated. As in killed. And he put a number on that. Twenty five million.
This is what we are dealing with. The Democratic Party of Henry Jackson is no more. The Democratic Party is now the operational arm of the Communist Party of the USA.
Keep pushing their buttons. They’re going to overplay their hand. We want them to show their inner thug.
That’s happening. They’re taking the mask off. The rest of us need to man up and get ready.
