Once again the Police State Left flips the script and blames Trump on what the Left did.
Lois Lerner ( head of IRS) harassed conservative groups under Barak Husseins Reign ;
In May 2013, the Washington Post
reported that the IRS had illegally targeted conservative groups for additional reviews. Organizations with the words “tea party” or “patriot” were singled out for harassment, such as
requiring them to provide a list of donors, details about their internet postings on social networking websites, and information about their family members.
When this was first reported by the media in May 2013, Lois Lerner, who heads the IRS division that had conducted these illegal activities,
claimed that only low level employees had known about it, and that no high level IRS officials had known about it. However, soon afterward, NPR reported that an Inspector General report showed that Lerner had been
lying, and that she herself had actually been aware of it since June 29, 2011. Even worse, during March and April of 2012, Lerner herself had actually written such letters to
fifteen different conservative groups
In September 2013, a House committee released several of Lerner’s
emails, which showed that she had targeted tea party groups, and that she had asked that their applications be delayed. In one of the emails from 2011, she had written “Tea Party Matter very dangerous.”
In September 2013, after having been on paid leave for
four months, Lerner had still not been fired by Obama.
In September 2013, Lerner
retired with a full pension.
In October 2013, it was
reported that newly discovered emails proved that Lerner had violated federal law by giving the Federal Election Commission confidential tax information of several Tea party groups.
