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.

We do not want a patsy. We want the chain of command. The ones that gave the orders.
Threaten her with life in prison or worse and watch her role on the higher ups.
We are going to need a DOJ with a backbone not a set of ears
HUGE DITTOS!!!!!!
You are most welcome.
I find it hard to believe that Lois Lerner is not going to be prosecuted.
Her non-prosecution sends the wrong signal!
Positioning. One aspect is that the evil bastards have now been positioned as evil, even if not prosecuted. Our battle against evil is multi-pronged. Perception, as much as you and I may scoff at it, is part of the battle.
Sessions - some weeks ago ago, announced that he will NOT prosecute Lerner -
DUMP SESSIONS, d*mn it all....
Milquetoast reply—are you a GOPe by nature and tradition?
No. GOPe is the wolf in the tattered rags sheeps clothing. I’m sorry my brief and hurried response left you thinking otherwise. I’ll message you additional thoughts.
Quiet Zone.
Please remain quiet so as to not awaken the DOJ.
Thank You.
I moment I found out about the CFR, I knew that. When you have Republican Presidents with their minions and Democrat Presidents with their minions, along with Senators, Congressmen, Captains of Business and Academia par excellence, as members of the Council on Foreign Relations, you know that there must be collusion on a global scale.
The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) is an independent, nonpartisan membership organization, think tank, and publisher dedicated to being a resource for its members, government officials, business executives, journalists, educators and students, civic and religious leaders, and other interested citizens in order to help them better understand the world and the foreign policy choices facing the United States and other countries. Founded in 1921, CFR takes no institutional positions on matters of policy.And this just in:
Experts in Energy and Climate Change, Russia, and Gender and Human Rights Join CFR August 09, 2017
The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) welcomes three fellows, Amy Myers Jaffe, James Goldgeier, and Caroline Bettinger-López, to its David Rockefeller Studies Program. “The diverse knowledge areas of Amy, Jim, and Caroline are a reflection of the Council’s growing range and depth of expertise,” said CFR President Richard N. Haass. Amy Myers Jaffe joins as the David M. Rubenstein senior fellow for energy and the environment and director of the Program on Energy Security and Climate Change.James M. Goldgeier will join CFR as a visiting senior fellow. A former director for Russian, Ukrainian, and Eurasian affairs on the National Security Council in the Bill Clinton administration and a former CFR Whitney H. Shepardson senior fellow, Goldgeier will conduct a roundtable series on Europe and Russia. He will research and write on the future of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and U.S.-Russia relations.
Caroline Bettinger-López joins CFR as an adjunct senior fellow for women and foreign policy. She will research domestic and global responses to domestic violence, sexual assault, human trafficking, child marriage, and other forms of violence against women.
David Rockefeller had a lifelong association with the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) when he joined as a director in 1949.[32] In 1965, Rockefeller and other businessmen formed the Council of the Americas to stimulate and support economic integration in the Americas. In 1992, at a Council sponsored forum, Rockefeller proposed a "Western Hemisphere free trade area", which subsequently became the Free Trade Area of the Americas in a Miami summit in 1994. His and the Council's chief liaison to President Bill Clinton in order to garner support for this initiative was through Clinton's chief of staff, Mack McLarty, whose consultancy firm Kissinger McLarty Associates is a corporate member of the Council, while McLarty himself is on the board of directors.[33]
Displeased with the refusal of Bilderberg Group meetings to include Japan, Rockefeller helped found the Trilateral Commission in July 1973.[34]
I am sick and tired of what appears to be two sets of laws in our republic. There should be at least three people and possibly more indicted for these crimes committed against those tea party organizations. What is the problem here? The IRS has admitted criminal behavior, why aren’t those responsible indicted. Why is it the taxpayers place to pay the penalty for law breakers in the IRS? Where are the indictments, Sessions?
Good, that's progress, or would be if they intended to comply with the settlement, which I'm sure they do not. However, what happened to her? Is she fined hundreds of thousands? Is she in prison? Is prosecution moving forward? If not, all this is pointless.
