President Trump made it official on Thursday that embattled IRS Commissioner John Koskinen will be out of a job next month.
Trump tapped David Kautter, the Treasury Departments assistant secretary for tax policy, to serve as interim IRS commissioner, beginning Nov. 13.
Koskinens term ends on Nov. 12. He was eligible for reappointment, but Koskinen is fiercely opposed by congressional Republicans. Members of the House Freedom Caucus attempted but failed to impeach Koskinen last year, largely over his handling of the scandal involving former IRS official Lois Lerner.
Prior to Koskinens tenure, Lerner was accused targeting conservative groups who applied for non-profit status. Koskinen was accused of stonewalling congressional investigators looking into Lerners activities as well as of covering up for the Obama administration.
Trump had faced pressure from many Republicans to fire Koskinen, who was appointed to head the IRS by President Obama in 2013.
Kautter, Koskinens intended replacement, was appointed to his role at Treasury in August. He worked as a tax attorney at the firm Ernst & Young for more than three decades.
Kautter will still perform his Treasury Department duties while overseeing the IRS, according to Treasury Sec. Steven Mnuchin.
David will provide important leadership while we wait to confirm a permanent commissioner, Mnuchin said in a statement, according to Bloomberg.
Another leftist incompetent turd down the toilet, er swamp of DC.
Give it another flush just to be sure, and then put in some Draino to disinfect the bowl.
Why has he not been arrested?>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Koskinen has an extortion file bigger than J. Edgar Hoover’s was at the FBI.
He has bad shit on the very people who are in direct authority over him.
The only way to take him out would be via White Feather, and even then people would be ruined.
This is also why Lois Learner was not prosecuted.
“....I dont think he should be allowed in any govt. job.”
Any job? Howsa ‘bouts permanent latrine orderly at a federal prison?
That giant sucking sound is the swamp being drained.
FIRE THE IRS....Do not replace anything in it
A lot of the Obama Administration has been given walking papers.......Hillary Clinton for instance.
Any other business that has rogue,criminals working for them get fired on the spot.
But this is where we are with this corrupt bunch of government parasite bastards.
Skip locking him up and just hang the sorry son-of-a-bitch. With a cheap rope.
Oh, just stop. Unless you know what the President knows and see what the President sees you have no business criticizing. He was getting bad advice at the start of his presidency. The momentum is picking up.
Oh of course. Any other orders you want to give? Lord and master.
I’ll think what I want and you do the same.
LOL Not at this time. Thank you for your kind response.
