Schock: ‘Clear Evidence’ Lerner Broke The Law
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 4/9/14 | Washington Free Beacon Staff

Posted on 04/09/2014 6:10:05 PM PDT by Nachum

Rep. Aaron Schock (R., Ill.) told Fox News host Gretchen Carlson there is “clear evidence” embattled former IRS official Lois Lerner broke the law Wednesday on Fox News.

The House Ways and Means Committee released a report today revealing evidence highly incriminating to Lerner, and will refer her to the Justice Department for prosecution.

Among the more startling allegations, Schock revealed the committee found evidence she deliberately attempted to obstruct Crossroads GPS’s 501 (c)(4) approval for purely political reasons.

“We have in writing her own e-mails after meeting with liberal-leaning groups like Democracy 21 and others where they specifically say, go after Crossroads GPS, target Crossroads GPS, shut them down, are the words that were used. She then goes after that meeting and e-mails her subordinates and says, ‘give me all of the documentation on Crossroads,’ and suggests denying their application.”

Yeah, and it is my belief that OFA has literally billions of dollars behind it. All the ACORN money, all the "billion-here-and-billion-there" little "oops, we can't account for that, Congressman" leaks that have occurred over the last five years.

The $6B that disappeared from the Department of State, big chunks of the tens of billions of dollars that were sunk into bogus ObamaCare website development projects, not to mention huge amounts from offshore sources and the "ditzy-billionair's-wives-club."

I'm sure I'm only scratching the surface.

Ms. Lerner will be very handsomely rewarded for her service as a stand-up guy.

Prison terms are for Republicans, who have consciences and show remorse.

The DOJ will do nothing. They’re as corrupt as the IRS.

Or an accident, or a suicide.

If she rats out her comrades, she will probably end up dead.

“all the way up to Barry”

Let’s see those e-mails. Redactions?
Let’s talk resignation or impeachment.

She'll almost certainly resign

Hasn't she already retired?

"The beotch is toast".

You're absolutely correct, Commander. There's even more coming out that will hit Lerner in the eye like a big pizza pie.

One such juicy tidbit is regarding the conservative group, "True the Vote".

She and her IRS henchmen and henchwomen just loved to wantonly email each other about their little conspiracies and strategeries aimed at intended conservative victims...and lots of these emails are now safely ensconced in Trey Gowdy's right hip pocket.

AG Eric Hitler notwithstanding, one way or another, we won't have to wait long. We'll soon see Ms. Lerner disappear from her IRS post faster than a cat in a Taco Bell kitchen.

She broke the law on Fox News? I wonder how she managed to do that exactly? (*eye roll*)

Can’t Congress remove Holder. If anyone ever needed to be removed it’s him.

Lerner has been doing this since 1992. She and Holder are of the same class of taking out conservatives once they witnessed Contract with America.

True Red Commies.

I’ve been reading about the criminal soviets in the Gulog Archipeligo. Are we close to that level of criminality by this criminal group in Clown Prince nobama’s commie Clown Car administration?

So what will the RINOs do? Sit on their nuts and let them off the hook? Need to start to prosecuting them ana also remove Cummings too.

Beyond it. They really believe themselves to be Untouchable.

Only Chicago can impart that sort of infallibility.

you know if he refuses there just may be enough Dems running scared to jump into the fray and go along with his removal. At this point they’d love to have something to point to that wold appeal to the independent voter.

Pretty important goings on at the Capitol, and as expected the MSM circles the wagons by non-reporting, dismissive or biased reporting.
