SMOKING GUN: IRS Officials Admit to Inappropriately Targeting Conservative Groups

SMOKING GUN: IRS Officials Admit to Inappropriately Targeting Conservative Groups

We know that Obama and his sick minions did everything they could to stay in power.

Every single scandal uncovered in the Era of Obama is real. And we will get the drip drip of these scandals, as the dam has already begun to break. 

Aside from the revelations that Susan Rice illegally unmasked regular citizens as part of the political cabal to get Hillary Clinton elected, we now have another of these old scandals that have resurfaced.

It turns out, an IRS official admits that the Obama administration’s IRS indeed targeted Conservative groups.

As Judicial Watch: reports, there is a smoking gun:

The documents were produced after a revelation by the IRS that it had located “an additional 6,924 documents of potentially responsive records” relating to a 2015 Judicial Watch Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit about the Obama IRS targeting scandal.  The FOIA lawsuit seeks records about the IRS’ selection of individuals and organizations for audits based upon applications requesting nonprofit tax status filed by Tea Party and other 501(c)(4) tax-exempt organizations (Judicial Watch v. Internal Revenue Service (No. 1:15-cv-00220)).

Of the 695 pages of documents released by the IRS, 422 (61%) were withheld in their entirety.  These newly identified records are not records that were contained in the “Congressional Database,” which the IRS created in 2013 to house records responsive to congressional inquiries into the IRS scandal.

Included among the newly released a material is a June 20, 2013, memo from Karen Schiller, then-Acting Director, EO Rulings and Agreement, suspending use of the controversial Be on the Lookout (BOLO) and Touch and Go (TAG) lists:

Other records reveal that the IRS was going to require 501(c)(4) nonprofit organizations to restrict their alleged political activities in exchange for “expedited consideration” of their tax-exempt applications.

Obama weaponized government for the benefit of the scurrilous Left.

And, as I indicated earlier, we are only seeing the tip of the iceberg.

President of Judicial Watch, Tom Fitton commented on why Obama hid these records. Moreover, Fitton examines why Obama then schemed to get Hillary Clinton elected no matter what:

“No wonder the Obama IRS has been hiding these records.  The new smoking-gun documents contain admissions by the Obama IRS that it inappropriately targeted conservative groups, but the records also show that the abuse continued – as the Obama IRS tried to force conservative applicants to give up their First Amendment rights in order to finally get their applications granted.”

Honestly, in the scheme of things, this scandal pales in comparison to some of the new revelations. Nevertheless, the American public needs to know the lengths the Left are willing to go to stay in power.

I assure you, they have no limit to the depth they will sink.
