whoa wait a minuet...

This is the nasty POTUS and his thugs getting ‘even’ and this is a disgrace...has any of the BLACK church's lost their nonprofit status when they have Politics preach from their pulpits?

just like the IRS when Lois Lerner used her power position to go after Tea Party supporters...this is just a half black president using power against the ones who wrinkle his thin skin...

Obviously, the answer to your question is NO. However, as I pointed out earlier - this organization lost it’s nonprofit status on August 10 - that is over a month ago. So, this guy organized and sold tickets to this event under false pretenses - now, if you are Hillary Clinton - you can erase over 30,000 confidential emails and run for POTUS. It’s the Democratic way. Putting that aside - this event sounds like it was fraudulent - not Trump’s fault, but now his name is attached to it.

I fully agree with you both. But in this case, I jumped the gun. The decision to pull the tax exempt status for this organization was made back in august. But we have seen this kind of pettiness from obambas admin before.

How dumb are they? They are not supposed to be partisan. Well I guess they will learn the hard way. I didn’t know they were non profit when they did it. I thought it was a good idea....now they are stupid.

Think again

The IRS issued its decision Aug. 10, citing the group’s failure to file any tax returns for three consecutive years, according to IRS records reviewed by the AP.”

It does to donors—they can’t write off donations. It would be a death knell for many non-profits.

Please pull this thread. I unintentionally miss-represented the motivation behind the IRS pulling this organizations’ tax exempt status.

I'm sure the same thing has happened with other groups which suddenly took a stance to back a specific candidate, groups like ACORN...

Wrong descriptive term. ........Obama is half-white. He’s about 30% Arab and 20% black, based on what I read years ago.

Al sharpton will never have to write any checks for back taxes. The issue is because he will shakedown anyone else for a penny if he feels that they used any perceived rascism against him. Al sharpton is nothing more than a con artist - and if the IRS did do its job in dealing with him, the blacks would riot over the very issue that Al was being discriminated against!

So you’re saying Al Sharpton had better watch out?
(No. And that’s the problem.)
