WASHINGTON, DC -- U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, today sent the following letter to the Internal Revenue Service regarding its decision to audit Breitbart News Network, LLC.
The full text of the letter is available here.
Dear Commissioner Koskinen:
I write to express deep concern over the recent announcement by Breitbart News that the Internal Revenue Service recently notified the Breitbart News Network, LLC that it would be subject to a far-reaching, burdensome, and open-ended audit.
As you know, the Breitbart News Network LLC is a conservative-leaning press outlet. It has editors and reporters who cover daily political news and regularly breaks stories that are critical of the Obama Administration's policies. To conduct this audit, Breitbart News Network, LLC was asked to provide the IRS with all of its organizational documents, financial records, W-2s, W-4s, 1099s, and K-1s filed, personal income tax returns for each member of the company, payroll tax forms, information regarding properties and assets acquired by the company, bank statements, and array of other records documenting revenues, expenses, and depreciation costs.

BTTT
Playing footsie with the Marxist left once again comes back to bite us. They should have jailed Lerner for contempt but never had the guts.
And if obama assigned secret service protection to dear Lois, the Congress should have confronted that head on.
Thanks John. Thanks Mitch.
The IRS was once respected. Then respected and feared. Now it is simply a political weapon used by the Regime.

Text of the reply:
Comrade Cruz:
Thank you for your inquiry. Unfortunately, all records concerning the ordering of that audit will be inadvertently destroyed in a hard drive crash later this afternoon. Unfortunately, that hard drive was not backed up. I trust this fully addresses your questions.
Sincerely,
Commissar Koskinen
BINGO!!!!!!!
Anything to do with Andrew’s former colleague James O’Keefe having someone identifying himself as an ebola victim slipping across into the United States from Canada?
The goose steppers will do what they want until they are out of power, which might take longer than we think. We need leadership but we have none. House leadership with Bonhead and the other clowns trying to busy fighting the conservatives while the assclowns on the left are laughing at them.
This is great news. Cruz is forcing the DOJ and Cummings into a corner with Fallon’s oopsie calling Issa’s team to ask for documents to cook up a story with ‘selected reporters’.
Ted’s on top of this... Gowdy’s on top of Benghazi..
Eventually, one of the two will say RICO. And the entire RAT party will go silent or resign, depending on the degree of their guilt.
If Boner had any dignity or sense, the IRS commissar would be impeached and in jail already.
The Good News about this is that Breitbart WILL NOT BE INTIMIDATED, just as True The Vote (I love their tenacity and effectiveness) was not intimidated and persevered in their fight with the IRS.
Judicial Watch, too.
Cruz/Englebrecht 2016.
What story was deliberately “cooked up” with reporters?
