Trump’s Justice Department Lets Lois Lerner Off The Hook

The Justice Department says it will not prosecute former IRS executive Lois Lerner for targeting conservative groups during the 2010 and 2012 elections.

In a letter to top Republicans on the House Ways and Means Committee, Assistant Attorney General Kevin Brady said that after a careful review of the case, DOJ will not pursue charges against Lerner, who oversaw the IRS division that reviewed tax exempt organizations.

“After this process, the Department determined that reopening the investigation would not be appropriate based on the available evidence,” Boyd wrote Texas Rep. Kevin Brady, the chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, and Illinois Rep. Peter Roskam, the chairman of the subcommittee on tax policy.

Politics. Reality. Even the very best "true conservatives," like Sessions and Cruz have revealed themselves today as merely part of the DC establishment.

--Sessions, letting Lerner go Scott Free.

--Cruz, not opposing hurricane relief "Pork"

Shoot me a memo, when you find a politician with ideological purity, perfection and unbending principles.

Concerning Sessions, good point.

But your charge against Cruz is utterly ridiculous.

   Obviously, Lois Lerner is another one of those 'she's suffered enough' women.
   All this 'winning' is making me absolutely exhausted.
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

Sessions is absolutely NOT the guy I thought he was. I'm fairly sure Trump is thinking the same thing.

Ditto re Sessions but did *someone* give him an order not to persue charges?

Aaaaaand this is how Trump and the Oligarchy do 'Swamp Draining".

Just ask Hildabeast about that.  Free passes for all the corrupt tyrants and their enablers.

Just more of the same shit.  But hey - Trump's gonna 'drain the swamp'.

Idiots.

Anyone that thinks voting for someone in the Republican Party will make a difference in terms of justice and restoring foundational principles is a freaking imbecile.

The broader implication in this is that all the dozen or more MAJOR criminal acts carried out by Obama, Hillary, Holder, Jarrett, ATF, IRS, FBI, and company, are all going to be dismissed and forgotten.


There was once a candidate in American politics who ran on a campaign of 'law and order'. In fact, he used to lead crowds in a chant that declared, 'Lock her up!'

   Without vehicles for funding due to increased scrutiny by Kosiken's IRS, the Tea party was certainly doomed to fail, just as obummer, Lerner and McConnell surmised.

This is what happens when corruption becomes institutionalized and the Law of Liberty is replaced with the tyranny of men.

The ONLY way to remedy that existence, is bloodshed to remove tyrants and their tyranny.

There is no other solution.  Corruption rewrites rules to reward the lawless and punish the righteous while criminalizing any threat to the state.  There is no replacing this kind of corruption or lawlessness via civil means.

Take that to the bank.  If anyone wants to pretend that voting is going to remedy where we have arrived, a mass grave awaits them and their posterity - because they are woefully ignorant of history and human nature and/or choose to ignore it.

It's an amusing thought, but I don't think that's what happened.  This is just another liberal administration covering for liberal miscreants where it counts.

Sessions doesn't take orders from the President.  The AG has made this abundantly clear several times.

Previously this made the forum damn happy.

    You are correct @Right_in_Virginia Eric Holder proved that, YES, it is possible to have a 'renegade' Attorney General.   :silly:
