IRS' Latest Email Excuse Draws It Closer To Rogue Agency Status
 [NEWS.INVESTORS] Let's cut to the chase here: The IRS...the Internal Revenue Service; that office of the United States government that collects taxes and persecutes the regime's political enemies... is obstructing justice because it doesn't want the truth to come out . The agency has been caught red-handed targeting opponents of the B.O. regime, including the tea party, pro-Israel groups and conservative news media. It purposely delayed issuances of tax-exempt status to nonprofit groups and held investigations entirely outside its own mandate. What the IRS is hiding is bound to be the work of malicious wardheelers cloaking themselves as impartial civil servants, plotting among themselves against their political enemies through email. The stiff-arms given by the IRS at every juncture -- from Lerner's invoking her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination at a House hearing to this latest claim about preventing duplicates -- is consistent with that scenario. As a result, the IRS is moving closer and closer to rogue status -- an agency so contemptuous of the law and confident of its impunity that it's becoming a law unto itself. Would the IRS itself be just as casual about deadlines if private citizens failed to file their taxes by April 15? Would it show understanding to a corporation that said it had lost all its emails with tax records in some sort of server crash that somehow wiped the whole thing clean? Does the IRS let anyone it has accused of tax evasion take the Fifth or withhold the incriminating evidence? Absolutely not. Yet it somehow expects the courts and Congress to go along with the sloppiness and obstruction it would never tolerate in the people it "serves." Posted by: Fred 2015-06-18 |
