IRS: As the 2014 midterms approach, what has become a political arm of the Obama administration has targeted as it targeted the Tea Party a leading conservative truth-teller that has exposed so many of its lies.
Even as the IRS races to cover up a prior abuse of power, it ruthlessly engages in another, using its power to tax in an attempt to destroy the vast truth-gathering enterprise launched by the late Andrew Breitbart, which the administration apparently ranks right alongside the Tea Party atop its enemies list.
Last Friday, the IRS stretched credulity beyond the breaking point with the announcement that five more staffers linked to the Tea-Party targeting that Breitbart News labored mightily to expose had wait for it hard-drive crashes that caused emails to be lost.
These staffers include Judith Kindell, who was a senior adviser to Lois Lerner, former head of the IRS division overseeing tax-exempt groups who pleaded the Fifth in congressional testimony.
In a February 2011 email, The Hill reports, Lerner insisted that Kindell be in the loop on Tea Party cases, saying they were "very dangerous."
Another experiencing the hard drive crash epidemic was Nikole Flax, who was chief of staff to interim IRS chief Steven Miller, who was forced out as the Tea Party scandal broke. Both the targeting and the cover-up were fully covered by Breitbart News, which frequently exposed Obama administration lies.

You know as well as I do that if a Republican is elected to the presidency next he’ll do absolutely zero to clean out this infestation.
How is this IRS scandal not several hundred times worse than Watergate?!?!?!

Heard about this a few days ago. Criminal thugs are running our government. I have no doubt whatsoever of this.
We are beginning to be a nation gone under.
I am rapidly losing what little faith I had in republiCANTS to turn things around as well.
I got the full anal audit for my 2010 tax year.
The guy was ok. But talk about no sense of humor.
Came out it it pretty clean. But I would not wish it on anyone.
I guess MURDERING BREITBART wasn’t enough.
Well why not? It's not like anybody is doing anything to them. How long has this been going on? Anybody indicted? But Rick Perry gets indicted for trying to fire a vicious drunk

What's sauce for the Tea Party is sauce for Breitbart and Dinesh D'Souza, and here, have some more sauce, and then some more, until you learn to love Big Brother.
And Dinesh D'Souza, for a couple of books and a movie.
And they want to put Cathy Engelbrecht of Houston's King Street Patriots in jail, too -- at the instigation of local 'Rats who weren't used to having poll watchers screw up their overvoting parties on Election Day.
This administration sold guns to Mexican drug cartels knowing people would die as a result, simply so they could use the resulting deaths to push the “90% of Mexico’s guns come from the US” lie ...
An administration willing to facilitate the deaths of people to push a lie for political purposes thinks nothing of using the IRS to harass political enemies.
This country, although it may occupy the same physical space as the United States we remember, is NOT the United States any longer: We are a corrupt, 18 trillion dollar in debt leviathan government rampaging on the rights of citizens, driven by unionized federal workers who apparently take great joy in giving the citizens of this country a big FU on a daily basis.

ADD THE HERO OF BENGHAZI AND THE DEFENDER looked into the eyes of the families when the bodies came back and lied about the cause and what they would do.
One of the most despicable things ever.
