Agreement specifically blames Lois Lerner by name for failures
The IRS admitted in court Wednesday that it wrongly targeted tea party and other conservative groups for intrusive scrutiny, placing specific blame on former senior executive Lois G. Lerner, and entered into a settlement designed to make sure that kind of political targeting never takes place again.
The filing, made in federal court in Washington, D.C., amounts to a stunning apology from the Trump administration for actions taken under President Barack Obama, when hundreds of tea party and conservative groups were singled out for intrusive screening, forced to wait years for their applications to be approved, and subjected to outrageous questions.

Let’s see what happens. I say you’re wrong. It will leave a huge mark.
Trump’s success rate is far beyond anything anyone could have expected, given that he’s opposed by the democrat party who hide the fact that they’re communist, the republican party who hide the fact that they’re democrats, the media who can’t admit they’re anti-American subversives, and Hollywood who hide the fact they’re rapists and child molesters.
How can you apologize and leave the same creep who covered it all up in charge of the department?
Yeah, and some reparations, too. The man owes for this. How about a little affirmative action.
I wonder if this is anything like when various governmental organizations intentionally lose lawsuits to be "forced" into doing what they want to do anyway. Get some court ordered swamp draining if the alligators are to thick to do it any other way.
Obama is a delusional but fervent ideologue who is so convinced that his ridiculous and indefensible world view is right such that he can rationalize any personal behavior. He truly needs to travel the world and educate himself, because he is currently the opposite of worldly. Beyond that, he's also a bit of a racist. So much for the enlightenment of law school.
Taking away her pension would be a start, but what she did was so serious as to deserve jail time—which would likely be the only way to deter her type in the future.
During this period of Lois Lerner I was making monthly payments for back taxes to IRS. I applied for a loan to refinance my house with no cash out, just lower interest/payment.
I received a letter from the IRS addressed to me IN LONG HAND (cursive)from an IRS office notifying me that they placed a lien on my house...
Its proof that the federal permanent bureaucracy has grown far too large and powerful; it no longer recognizes any restraint on its power. Not from Congress, which it openly defies at every turn, not from the elected Executive, which it routinely ignores. Not from any Court it disagrees with.
He don’t need to apologize for the IRS Zero Does..
As well as some other stuff we can only imagine.
I like this. I think it may very well be a stroke of genius.
Don’t forget the 2012 election was also thrown by godzillary, Zero and their minions going on tv telling the American people that Benghazi was the result of a video, knowing the entire time that it was a terrorist attack.
Let me see if I understand this: A federal employee violates the law; the IRS accepts the blame; and THE POOR SUFFERING TAXPAYERS PAY THE FINE?

Why should this administration apologize for something the corrupt obama crew did? Ain’t right.
Why are the taxpayers responsible. Make the dnc pay.
