An IRS document confirms that the organization supplied the FBI with 21 computer disks containing 1.25 million pages of confidential information from more than 113,000 tax returns.
“The FBI and Justice Department worked with Lois Lerner and the IRS to concoct some reason to put President Obama’s opponents in jail before his reelection, and this abuse resulted in the FBI’s illegally obtaining confidential taxpayer information,” Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch, said in the release.
Lerner, a former IRS official, was at the center of past allegations that the agency had specifically targeted conservative groups applying for 501(c)(4) nonprofit status. More than 6,000 Lerner emails thought to be lost were turned over to the Senate Finance Committee in April.
The new documents shed light on the relationship between various agencies in the Obama administration and their plans to gain access to unredacted documents forbidden under federal tax law, according to Judicial Watch.
Never-ever truth a lib to follow the rule of law.
If this had been done by God apparatchuks it would have been front page news for months.
We don’t have to worry much about access to our tax returns in Canada. Pretty much everyone in government can have a go at them. The law start out right but then makes an exception for about 2 pages of potential users. If you declared your proceeds of crime, as required, the police can then use your declared income as evidence to convict you.
I can’t WAIT to see that story on CBC!
When you politicize institutions of governance this is what happens.
The current administration there has been a criminal organization all along. That in itself is not surprising, but that the fourth estate and some of the judiciary is complicit in this crime is heralding the death knell of democracy in the US.
Wake me when people start going to jail.
If Donald Trump dumps the Slack Jawed Republicans and runs as an independent (tea Party) Hell will come to the executive Branch.
He could split both parties ~10% off each (normal 30% each), resulting in a overwhelming 60% Win
Both parties are scared shitless because if they lose the Presidency it will never return. (All SCOTUS nominations
will be bi-partisan ending the shared book-ends crap). They are “both” hell bent on destroying Trump…Just like they played Ross Perot by going after his family
Also kinda blows the DOJ “no conflict of interest” claim out of the water. Special Prosecutor, anyone?
The gangsters are in control of the USA. Go Trump Go!
In case one wondered, this shows why the FBI were too busy to pay attention to the Russian tips that the Tsarnaev brothers needed watching.
One Tsarnaev brother is dead; the other hopefully soon will be. What about prosecution of FBI bosses for negligence in this affair?
Waiting for a crisis so Obumboy can declare himself president for life
Yeah well, it’s like my dad said anyone successful didn’t have time to be politicians…..
Then there are some other inconvenient truths….that the elements who join the Police, are basically power trippers.
The snivellel service and academia are an element, that never want’s a real job and viciously protects their iron rice bowl. This element has long been the powerbase of liberal democrats….
Current, most admins are crocket as hell
Obama using the IRS and FBI as his own SS goons to turn loose on conservatives more reasons he should be impeached and deported
