True The Vote wins historic victory against Obama’s IRS goons… Posted by Kane on June 11, 2019 6:52 pm
Catherine Engelbrecht announced a historic legal victory in her decade long battle against the IRS for targeting her group, True The Vote, as part of the Obama administration’s weaponization program against political opposition.
U.S. District Court Judge Reggie Walton issued a stunning ruling in favor of True the Vote, and penalized the IRS. Judge Walton forced the IRS to pay maximum attorney’s fees due to discrimination against the conservative organization that stemmed from the Lois Lerner scandal. The financial award is likely to exceed $2 million.
Undeniably good news, but when will IRS weasels like Lerner, and not just her, pay some personal price for their attempts to suppress freedom of speech? Bear in mind, "The financial award is likely to exceed $2 million." is a nice piece of change, but it cost the IRS nothing. As always the taxpayers get the bill.
How can the Democrats say they support border security when they also advocate for sanctuary cities?

I'm of the opinion that Lerner et al. ought to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, serve jail time, loose all retirement benefits, and loose personal assets right down to their dirty underwear.

If a judge can determine that the IRS was guilty of free speech violations against conservatives, then why was Lerner allowed to plead the 5th and skate off into the future without consequence?
Kevin Brady (R-TX), Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, and Peter Roskam (R-IL) Chairman of the House Subcommittee on Tax Policy wrote a letter to AG Jeff Sessions in 2017, urging him to reopen the case. “Taxpayers deserve to know that the DOJ’s previous evaluation was not tainted by politics,” wrote Brady and Roskam. “We respectfully request the Department of Justice to take a fresh look at the evidence presented in the attached referral in order to restore taxpayers’ trust in the IRS.” Sessions chose not to take action.
Of course it had to do with the corrupt Obama administration and specifically his corrupt wing man Eric Holder [Batman and Robin]. They refused to properly investigate the charges, especially recall this is the situation where Obama said there "wasn't a smidgeon of corruption" at the IRS and this was BEFORE any investigation had concluded.
This is why we've elected the bulldog Donald Trump to office, to drain the swamp! There's a whole lot of swamp to drain!
