The Internal Revenue Service may have been caught violating federal tax law: In October 2010, the agency sent a database on 501(c)(4) social-welfare groups containing confidential taxpayer information to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, according to documents obtained by a House panel.
The information was transmitted in advance of former IRS official Lois Lerners meeting the same month with Justice Department officials about the possibility of using campaign-finance laws to prosecute certain non-profit groups. E-mails between Lerner and Richard Pilger, the director of the Justice Departments election crimes branch, obtained through a subpoena to Attorney General Eric Holder, show Lerner asking about the format in which the FBI preferred the data to be sent.

Issa was tweeting about this earlier today.
Ping.
John Boehner, if 1 million pages is not enough to get you to call for a special prosecutor, would 2 million be enough?
SK the FBI received this info, in violation of the law, and did nothing? Who’s going to hold them accountable?
That story about the Federal agencies coming down on true the vote is starting to pan out. Looks like Katherine may have found her smoking gun. Now we know how the various agencies got her info. The IRS sent it in violation of the law.
Will this be the next scandal to get Bergdahl/Tallybon off the front pages?
They push one out the door daily now...
WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE!
For those of you who are my fellow Freepers who may not be aware of this, but the reason that Eric Holder is the AG is that his job is to have Obama’s back and make sure that nothing ever has a chance to touch the One. Justice for all?
Ha, ha, hahahahahahahahahahahah, oh my, I think my sides are going to split...
WHY do we even HAVE legislative and judicial branches...?
There should be a very basic alignment of reality and appearances.
Right now that balance is drastically out of whack.
If they don’t lay any claim to the powers vested in them, why do they exist..?
Lois must be convicted and sentenced to die for her crimes against the Republic
There is corruption at the very top. There is no governing body above the KGB/IRS and the DOJ. Since they are both corrupt, we have to wait until the public gets its head out of its anal sphincter and votes the democrats out of office.
Revolts aren't won by votes.
Hanging a few of them in public however...
This is the link from the IRS to the Justice Department. Now there needs to be a link from the Justice Department to Eric Holder.
(yes, that was a joke)
The FBI is just as culpable for essentially receiving stolen property. All this reminds me how efficient and squeaky clean the Nazis thought they were because they vigorously prosecuted anyone skimming from the constant stream of loot stolen from murdered jews. It was all on the “up and up”.
Wow, another impeachable offense!
Rest assured, Prince John is sure to discuss this matter with King Barry the next time they play golf together.
CUT IT OUT, for PETE’s sake. IMPEACH, IMPEACH! You can’t do that , under the present (and possibly future)circumstances. HE is black, holds the Senate and too many RINOs will uphold him. Save the bullshit for someone else.
To party on our dime.
This story just keeps leaking out and no ones being punished. :)
The Marxist/Fascist coup on America in 2008 is now complete, accountability be damned. The tyrannical regime answers to no one.
