Lois Lerner: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know

[240B]

Lois Lerner, who was at the center of the IRS scandal involving improper targets of the Tea Party, will not be charged. The Justice Department announced that after a two year investigation, it’s shutting down the case and won’t charge Lerner or anyone else at the agency. The agency said it found “substantial evidence of mismanagement,” but mismanagement is not a crime. Just a few days later, House Republicans announced that they were starting impeachment proceedings against John Koskinen, Commissioner of the IRS, over the same scandal.

Lois Lerner, Director of Exempt Organizations at the IRS, set off the two-year long investigation into whether the Tea Party was improperly targeted for tax exemption investigations by the IRS. At an American Bar Association meeting in May 2013, Lerner answered a planted question, apologizing for the IRS taking “absolutely inappropriate” actions in scrutinizing Tea Party members extra closely, ABC News reported. She said the scrutiny wasn’t centrally planned, but only came from the Cincinnati office. However, later reports found that IRS officials from Washington were involved in scrutinizing conservative groups more closely.

In a conference call in May 2013, she said that between 2010 and 2012, the IRS used shortcuts to identify some tax exempt applicants for closer scrutiny. Among those shortcuts were searching for terms like “Tea Party” or “patriots” in applications. She said the shortcuts weren’t politically motivated, NPR reported.

Isn't it ironic how members of the political party most obsessed with "justice" never seem to receive any?

They cry out for justice, while laughing about the massive injustices they have perpetrated and gotten away with.  Their ticket to hell owns them.

It is not about Loie Lerner, whom I equate with pig manure. It is the point that she was just a stupid puppet in the big scheme of the real guys. Still, she has to eat her millions knowing that she was just a pawn stooge. They played her like a stupid puppet.

And now here we go again with her stooge offspring. Working with a political agenda for the DeepState. Sieg Heil!


The IRS today, is all about what you can say, what you can vote, or we will kill you. That is the modern IRS.
