Fake Outrage From Fake GOP Over Lerner
By Steve Berman | September 8, 2017, 04:42pm | @stevengberman I happen to agree with the Department of Justice’s decision to take a pass on prosecuting Lois Lerner for her obvious bias against conservative groups under the Obama administration. It’s a terrible precedent for one administration to reach back into a previous civil service scandal just to get revenge or make political points.
Rep. Kevin Brady, chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee faked outrage for the quote “terrible decision” unquote, which he knew full well was coming. The Washington Examiner reported Friday:
“I have the utmost respect for Attorney General [Jeff] Sessions, but I’m troubled by his Department’s lack of action to fully respond to our request and deliver accountability,” the Texas lawmaker said in a statement.
Come now. John Koskinen is the IRS Commissioner. He was IRS Commissioner under Obama for three years, and Trump hasn’t seen fit to replace him, despite him being 78 years old. Koskinen presided over the lost-then-found Lerner 30,000 email fiasco.
