House committee votes to censure IRS commissioner
[NYPOST] A House committee passed a resolution Wednesday to condemn and censure IRS
...the Internal Revenue Service; that office of the United States government that collects taxes and persecutes the regime's political enemies...
 Commissioner John Koskinen.

On a partisan 23-15 vote, the GOP-led House Oversight and Government Reform Committee moved to deny Koskinen his government pension and get him out of office.

Spearheaded by chair Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah), Republicans say Koskinen lied to Congress about ex-employee Lois Lerner
...the former head of the IRS Exempt Unit. She is a past president of the Council on Governmental Ethics Laws and a member of the Massachussetts bar. She was held in contempt of Congress for her role in the IRS targeting of regime political enemies and refusing to testify. The dog ate her computer's hard drive with all her emails on it...
 and allowed key email evidence to be destroyed in an investigation of how the IRS targeted conservative groups.

"Mr. Koskinen’s misconduct deserves condemnation and censure from the Congress," Chaffetz said.

The measure now heads to the full House.

Chaffetz called the move "a helpful first step" toward the ultimate goal of impeachment, a rare rebuke that would require Senate passage. Chaffetz is pushing for impeachment in a separate Judiciary Committee hearing on June 22.

Koskinen, 76, came out of retirement in December 2013 to clean up the IRS after an independent audit found the agency was using improper criteria to screen politically active groups for tax-exempt status.

Rep. Elijah Cummings
...Representative-for-life from Maryland, representing half of Baltimore City, which makes his district ultra-safe, and most of Howard County, which is out-populated by the city. Cummings' politix are so liberal they're tedious...
 (D-Md.) panned the censure resolution as "bogus" because "there was no lying to Congress and no obstruction of justice."
