Federal Judge To IRS: Reveal The Names Of Those Who Targeted Conservative Organizations .....

Well, the time has come for the Internal Revenue Service to name the specific employees that were targeting conservative groups. The government agency has been embroiled in controversy ever since it was revealed that certain groups were subjected to intense vetting concerning obtaining 501(c)(4) nonprofit status. Almost every group that was targeted was politically conservative in nature. Cortney wrote last year that in total, 426 groups were targeted. Even National Public Radio noted that the list was top heavy with conservative groups:

A federal judge has ordered the Internal Revenue Service to release the names of specific employees involved in targeting Tea Party groups, after years of litigation over what conservatives have long called “chilling” behavior by one of the government’s “most feared” agencies.

Judge Reggie B. Walton of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia also said the IRS must provide information about which groups were targeted and why, along with a strategy to make sure such targeting doesn't happen again.

Judge Walton said the IRS has until October 16 to comply with the order.....snip~

Now will the IRS disobey the Judges Order? Or will they give out those names? What say ye?

 

Ouch ! I have a feeling that might leave a mark .

 

Let's see, what have you guys been calling this type of investigation? Oh that's right, a "NOTHINGBURGER." Please keep wasting your time following this story, it'll keep you entertained while Trump continues to make a mockery of the presidency.

 

I'm sorry you don't like it when a federal judge tries to get to the bottom of Obama's IRS, using the power of the massive agency,
to punish his political foes. I'm sure you'd like it better in North Korea or some other nation that uses it's power to brutally repress
dissent.

 

IRS has admitted to targeting certain groups.

 

Oh.....so you thought it was over and didn't know it was still in the court, huh?

 

"Judge Reggie B. Walton of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia also said the IRS must provide information about which groups were targeted and why..."

So the question is going to be whether there was a legitimate, legal reason to investigate those groups. If there was, then it doesn't matter whether they were "conservative" or "liberal" or a bunch of communists. If the targeting was legit then it's a big nothingburger.

 

Maybe I've been distracted by a sitting president whose campaign colluded with a foreign power to hijack an American election.

 

Where did I say that? I like it fine. Investigate. Get to the bottom of it. All it will reveal is the RW conspiracy-theory-driven paranoia.

 

Oh! There's the NOTHINGBURGER you were talking about. Thanks for the reminder.

 

"I'm not good at math," ~ Internal Revenue Service official Lois Lerner

 

All evidence points to a contrary conclusion.

 

Bookmarked so that I can come back months from now to read the Trump loving righties call this Judge an Obama loving Muslim Communist AND blame the Democrats and MSM when nothing happens. LOL

 

The IRS is too powerful as it is. If we don't hold them accountable, what happens when they try to silence your side? All Americans have an interest in this.

 

Only AFTER we get Trump's COMPLETE (Long form) tax returns for the last several decades.

 

Lol. Dude, the irs has them! "I can't do maths" Lerner has reviewed them. It's all good or the leaks would be a deluge.

 

Oh so now it's just a foreign power. What happened to the Russians? Not so sure anymore? Could it be because you were lied to by your own party?

 

Liberals can sneer but obama politicizing the IRS is very serious business

 

Yes, just like the Trump campaign colluding with a foreign power is serious business. It's pure conjecture until it's proven.

 

I don't even know what this is supposed to mean. I have no party - I was never a Democrat and the Republicans sold out to white nationalists. What's wrong with calling Russia a foreign power?

 

We are giving trump and anal examination but obama's crimes have never had a special prosecutor

Just like trumps claim that millions of illegal aliens and other unauthorized persons voted in the 2016 election

Liberals like you sneered that he had no evidence to back it up

But then when trump tries to get the evidence the culprits obstruct the investigation

 

That those Leftists and Demo ass lickers in the IRS hasn't leaked Trumps Taxes. Should be a major clue for the lefties of the lameness, huh?

 

So what.....you align and Kiss that Demo ass when they tell you to. Oh and the Demos sell out a whole lot quicker as they aren't tied to selling out to just one group. They will sell out to as many as possible.

Demos are real good at obstructing legal investigations. Especially when they fill up the DOJ and the FBI with their cult followers.

Now they have been schooled to always take the 5th.

 

This is what we refer to as the chilling effect of authoritarian government. Of course you support that, right? Why wouldn't you? It's what liberals have been trying to achieve for decades.

 

Must be why the judge made the order, nothing there even though they have admitted to targeting conservatives but tried to blame it on low level staffers.
